U.S. Closes Winnipeg Consulate Amid Trade Tensions | Winnipeg News
Description
The U.S. is shutting down its consulate in Winnipeg — the only such closure in North America — citing efficiency, not policy shift. While Washington says operations will be streamlined under Ottawa’s embassy, Manitoba’s opposition blames the premier’s trade efforts for economic strain, especially amid rising U.S. tariffs and a fiery political feud. The consulate, once reopened in 2001 after an 80s closure, now closes after 23 years — a seismic moment for Winnipeg’s diplomatic scene.
