Canada’s premiers are in Halifax this week for the Council of the Federation conference
Quebec’s premier wants to bring the issue of asylum seekers to the attention of his fellow provincial leaders.

The issue of equalization is also up for discussion in Halifax before the three-day meeting ends Wednesday. That item is of particular concern for Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Andrew Furey.
