8:30 – The Council of the Federation continues today as provincial and territorial leaders meet in Saskatoon. Many of the conservative premiers are working to present a united front against the federal carbon tax, with Quebec Premier Francois Legault recently affirming his province’s support in Saskatchewan’s fight against the tax. New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs recently cancelled his plans to launch a separate legal challenge against the federal carbon pricing scheme, instead throwing his province’s full support behind Saskatchewan’s challenge as it heads to the Supreme Court of Canada. Higgs joins John now to discuss the Council of the Federation, including the fight against the carbon tax, interprovincial trade, energy policy, and more.
