New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador have signed an agreement aimed at eliminating trade barriers between the two provinces. The agreement, signed by New Brunswick Premier Susan Holt and Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Andrew Furey on April 24, aims to facilitate the movement of workers and goods by ensuring that certifications from one province are recognized in the other. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to strengthen interprovincial trade in light of economic threats from the United States, particularly following recent tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump. The agreement builds on an existing alliance that allows doctors to work across Atlantic Canada without needing separate licenses for each province. Both premiers expressed openness to forming similar agreements with other provinces, highlighting a move toward greater Canadian unity and economic resilience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
