Poilievre Pitches Germany on Canada as Reliable LNG Supplier in Berlin Speech

Poilievre urged a binding LNG supply pact and faster Canadian infrastructure development to reduce Europe’s energy price surge amid Middle East conflicts, citing a recent Iranian drone attack.

  • On March 4, 2026, Pierre Poilievre, Conservative Party leader, urged Germany to sign a binding LNG supply deal and expedite pipelines and export terminals, according to his Berlin speech.
  • Citing an Iranian drone attack on Monday, Poilievre said instability tied to the Iran conflict has sharply raised energy prices in Europe.
  • On March 4, 2026, Poilievre urged for an allied minerals and energy stockpile pact, stating `These two steps would help secure your present energy needs and create contingencies for any minerals that you might require if, God forbid, we were jointly involved in a conflict against a shared enemy`.
  • On the trip funded by his party, Poilievre is not acting in an official Canadian capacity, highlighting Canada’s East Coast LNG export terminals gap during his pitch.
  • Part of a wider Europe tour, Poilievre linked his Berlin speech to a London speech on Tuesday where he urged deeper ties with the U.K., Australia and New Zealand and argued Germany should shift LNG sourcing to Canada to avoid Russia and Qatar.
