Prime Minister François Legault will not attend the Federation Council meeting, which will be held in Halifax on Sunday and Monday and will focus mainly on health issues.

This meeting will bring together the premiers of all provinces and territories except the Northwest Territories, Nunavut and Quebec.

Mr. Legault cannot attend the meeting due to a “scheduling conflict,” his press secretary Ewan Sauves told The Canadian Press. Monday, November 6th is also a strike day in Quebec.

In a news release issued Friday, Federation Council President and Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston said he was “impatient” to welcome his counterparts.

“This meeting will allow provincial and territorial premiers to discuss (…) healthcare innovations aimed at improving care for Canadians,” he explained.

The Prime Minister’s discussions will also focus on the issues of housing, infrastructure and workforce.

On Monday, premiers will attend a health summit to discuss ways to “improve health care through innovative and cutting-edge initiatives.”

The Prime Ministers will then hold a joint press conference on Monday afternoon.
