Darren Bernhardt / CBC » Premier Wab Kinew on Tuesday raised the idea of creating a second port on Hudson Bay as Manitoba hosted a delegation of European Union diplomats looking to forge stronger links with the province.
European Union Ambassador Geneviève Tuts and 18 heads of mission of European member states met with Kinew at the legislative building.
“We’re looking for closer relationships … given what’s happening with the U.S. right now,” Kinew told reporters after a closed-door meeting with the delegation, which arrived Monday for a two-day visit.
“I think that relationship, for the economy, is going to make sense for decades to come,” he added, saying he fully expects a post-Trump U.S. administration to maintain some protectionist policies.
