Carney calls on Métis groups to help change Canada's 'economic trajectory'

OTTAWA - Prime Minister Mark Carney called on Métis leaders Thursday to help transform the economy in response to an increasingly unsteady trade relationship with the United States under President Donald Trump.

"We have the opportunity to work together on transformative projects that can help change the economic trajectory of our country to the benefit of all," Carney said to Métis leaders from Ontario, Alberta, Saskatchewan and the N.W.T. who gathered in Ottawa for the meeting.
