Canada and Nordic leaders committed to coordinated defence procurement, Arctic military ties, green energy expansion, and ongoing support for Ukraine to enhance resilience and economic growth.
- On Sunday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Nordic leaders issued a joint statement in Oslo, agreeing to deepen economic ties and coordinate defense procurement across the six-nation alliance.

- Leaving Norway on Sunday, Carney is scheduled to meet British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday, marking their seventh bilateral engagement in just over a year of intensive diplomatic coordination.
