Pierre Poilievre Set to Give Speech in London During First Official Trip Overseas

Poilievre outlines a CANZUK pact to boost trade, security, and energy cooperation among Canada, the U.K., Australia, and New Zealand during his first overseas trip as Opposition leader.

  • Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre landed in London on Monday to begin a European tour including stops in the United Kingdom and Germany, urging greater Commonwealth co-operation on minerals, defence, and credentials.
  • After proposing the idea in Toronto last week, Poilievre's trip follows difficult months for him and his party, as he promotes a political and economic vision abroad.
  • Speaking at the Carlton Club, Poilievre shared photos from Monday's meeting with the business community and said `A nurse or a doctor in London, England, is certainly qualified to be a nurse or doctor in London, Ontario.`
  • Proposing a shared critical-minerals and energy reserve, Poilievre said it would supply allies in crises if they allow tariff-free trade with Canada, deepening trade and security ties among Canada, the U.K., Australia, and New Zealand.
  • Facing the Davos backdrop, polls show Conservatives trailing Liberals, with three MPs crossing the floor and Poilievre responding to Carney's Davos speech in Toronto.
