- On Sunday, Prime Minister Mark Carney met Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store on Parliament Hill in Ottawa to strengthen bilateral ties between the two nations.

- Norway is not a member of the trade alliance in Europe, but for three decades the country has maintained a deal granting mutual market access for goods and services, providing a template for future cooperation.
