Verbatim: Joint statement from President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, with plenty to say on energy
Editor’s note: Sometimes its worth hearing, or reading things, “from the horse’s mouth,” as it were. Here’s the full joint statement from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and President Joe Biden on Friday, March 24, the day of Biden’s first state visit as president.

Pay particular note to the announcement of a one-year “Energy Transformation Task Force.”
