Alberta Premier Danielle Smith will continue talking to the big shots in the United States and going to the U.S. All of Canada ’s premiers are headed to Washington , D.C. , to chinwag with American movers and shakers.

Some naysayers said Smith should not have gone to talk to Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort.
