OTTAWA — British Columbia Premier David Eby called reported meetings between Alberta separatists and the U.S. administration “treason” on Thursday, as premiers and Prime Minister Mark Carney met in Ottawa to discuss the Canada-U.S. trade relationship.
“Now I understand the desire to hold a referendum to talk about the issues you want to talk about, in Canada we have free speech and that’s important,” Eby told reporters.
