Carney lands in Australia ahead of planned speech to Australian parliament
Carney aims to strengthen defence, trade, AI cooperation and attract investment as Canada promotes a 'middle power' strategy amid global shifts, officials said.
- Landing in Sydney on Tuesday, Prime Minister Mark Carney arrived seeking deeper trade and defence cooperation during his Australia visit, part of an Indo‑Pacific tour.
- Responding to U.S. unpredictability, Carney, Prime Minister of Canada, urged middle powers to act together amid a `rupture` at the World Economic Forum this year.
- He will speak at the Lowy Institute on Wednesday and address Parliament on Thursday, with meetings with business leaders to attract investment following his India trip.
- The trip could reshape middle‑power dynamics because more than two‑thirds of Canadian exports are bound for the U.S., and the over‑the‑horizon radar agreement between Ottawa and Canberra could deepen security ties.
- Having won the Liberal leadership in early 2025, Carney served as Bank of England governor and brings Goldman Sachs experience, bolstering his international credibility.
