Photo Gallery: Canada’s premiers meet in Ontario

The premiers said in a statement they’d like the federal government to prioritize work toward the removal of Chinese tariffs on Canadian canola, peas, pork and seafood. 

They are also asking the federal government for changes to the bail system and more money for health care.

The premiers met with Prime Minister Mark Carney to discuss the trade war with the U.S. after meeting with First Nation leaders the previous day.

A number of provinces also signed several free-trade deals to open up internal trade, while others committed to building pipelines to get oil and gas to new markets.

Here are some scenes from the meetings.
