Power & Politics | LeBlanc returns to D.C. for 'lengthy' meeting with top official

Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc's office says he had a 'constructive' and 'lengthy' meeting with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Tuesday, with one Canadian source telling CBC that the meeting was supposed to last an hour but stretched to 90 minutes. Nathan Cooper, Alberta's representative in Washington, assesses what that means for the prospects of a deal. Plus, after a meeting between Canadian and German leaders ended with a declaration of closer defence ties on Monday, German Ambassador to Canada Matthias Lüttenberg discusses the path forward for deepening integration.

Every weekday, Power & Politics guides Canadians through the country's political news, with a regular cast of political panelists and the continuously unfolding drama of the Canadian political scene.
