The trip will include a number of meetings with business representatives and investors as well as media appearances, his office said. “Canada’s biggest asset in the present trade dispute is the goodwill of Americans,” Poilievre said in a Sept. 9 statement. “We must save Canadians money and jobs, by leveraging the goodwill of the American people for freer trade.
