It sounds like from Smith's comments that there are no indications that Trump is going to make any exceptions. She said we need to prepare for the tariffs starting immediately after he is inaugurated. Maybe he changes his mind last minute I guess.
FWIW, Alberta and Ontario have several international trade offices around the world. including ones in Washington, D.C., maybe other provinces do as well. It's not out of the ordinary for provinces to negotiate outside of the federal government. The premiere doing in person might not be that common though.
