Carney Begins 10-Day Summit Tour Across Europe and Asia
The prime minister will seek trade deals and security talks during meetings with European and Asian leaders, including planned bilateral sessions with China and the Philippines.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney departs Ottawa on Wednesday for a 10-day, 36,000-kilometre tour across four countries, attending summits in Europe and Asia to advance trade and security ties amid high-stakes diplomacy involving the United States, China, and Russia.
- The Liberals argue face-to-face meetings are critical for diversifying trade and building resilient supply chains, aiming to strengthen Canada's strategic autonomy and protect the role of French in the digital economy.
- Carney attends the European Political Community summit in Dublin on Thursday, then travels to Manila for the 49th ASEAN summit, continuing to Cambodia for the Francophonie summit before concluding at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting in Shenzhen.
- Canada expects to finalize two trade agreements in Manila while pursuing "associate member" status with the European Union, emphasizing "clear guardrails" in high-tech and defense cooperation to protect national security.
- Federal Conservatives criticize the tour as a distraction from domestic affordability issues, even as Carney attempts to balance relations with major powers including China and the United States without compromising national interests.
