Quebec Premier to Meet Prime Minister Mark Carney in Cambodia and in Quebec City

The leaders will meet in person twice before year-end after a dispute over location and speaking rights delayed talks.

  • Prime Minister Mark Carney and Quebec Premier Paul St-Pierre Plamondon agreed to meet in person during the Francophonie Summit later this month in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, marking their first formal face-to-face discussion since the provincial election.
  • St-Pierre Plamondon refused to attend last week's Canada-European Union Summit in Montreal, protesting Ottawa's denial of speaking rights, which strained relations between the two leaders.
  • While Carney's office proposed meetings in Montreal or Ottawa-Gatineau, St-Pierre Plamondon insisted on Quebec City, citing provincial law requiring government meetings in the provincial capital.
  • The leaders finalized a two-meeting plan, with the first session scheduled for November 14-16 during the Francophonie Summit and a second meeting expected in Quebec City in December.
  • Federal and provincial officials confirmed both sides prioritize in-person dialogue over virtual discussions, with officials stating that scheduling a meeting as soon as possible remains a mutual objective.
