Merrifield Went To Washington

Welcome to Municipal Affairs Last month, municipal leaders from across Canada travelled to Washington, D.C., to participate in a tri-national conference with Mayors and Municipal Leaders from The United States and Mexico.

Their mission?

To strengthen relationships and push back against the ongoing trade escalations.

Among the Canadian delegation was Union of Municipalities of New Brunswick President Brittany Merrifield who took the opportunity to deliver a clear message to U.S. officials and municipal counterparts.

But what was the response? What did she hear from American and Mexican leaders? And what impact could this growing tension have on communities back home?

We met President Merrifield to discuss her key takeaways from the trip—and what comes next.
