FEDERAL-PROVINCIAL-TERRITORIAL CONSULTATION

HALIFAX, August 2, 2002 - Canadians expect their governments to work together. Premiers recognized the need for regular meetings with the Prime Minister to deal with important provincial, territorial and federal issues. Noting that it has been almost two years since the last First Ministers’ Meeting was held in September 2000, Premiers called on the Prime Minister to commit to an Annual First Ministers’ Meeting beginning this fall.
