OTTAWA, Aug. 14, 2018 /CNW/ - The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today announced he will hold a Cabinet retreat in Nanaimo, British Columbia, from August 21 to 23.
The retreat will be the first meeting of the new Cabinet before Parliament resumes in September. During the retreat, the Prime Minister and ministers will discuss ways to deliver economic growth and create good, middle class jobs for Canadians.
Discussions will focus on diversifying international trade, eliminating trade barriers between provinces and territories, and maintaining the integrity and security of Canada's borders.
