He says they took stock of Canada’s progress on resolving trade irritants raised by the United States and Greer listened to Canadian concerns.
LeBlanc and Greer met in Washington earlier this month after Ottawa and Mexico City said they wanted a 16-year extension of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade.
