On behalf of all Canadians, Prime Minister Carney offers his sincere condolences to all those impacted by the catastrophic earthquakes in Venezuela.
Canada is preparing humanitarian assistance to support Venezuelans in the days and weeks ahead.
We’re restoring 24 Sussex Drive to a standard worthy of the country it serves.
Today, the property sits empty and in critical condition. We’re launching a design-and-build competition to find the best of Canadian talent and expertise — to protect this national landmark, put it back in service, and ensure we leave it better than we found it.
Canada is partnering with Australia on a $1.75B radar system deal to cover early warning from the US border up into the Arctic rather than using the US.
This is a clear message to Trump who negotiates by using threats, and bullying. Canada continues to move on.
The trading relationship between Canada and Croatia is booming, increasing by a third in the past year alone.
I welcomed @AndrejPlenkovic to Ottawa today to build on that momentum — to increase our trade in critical minerals, energy, and even, jerseys.
Ce fut un privilège de travailler aux côtés de Sir Keir Starmer alors qu’il dirigeait les efforts déployés par la communauté internationale pour soutenir l’Ukraine, par l’entremise de la Coalition des volontaires, renforcer l’OTAN, améliorer la coopération dans l’Arctique et consolider le partenariat historique entre le Canada et le Royaume-Uni.
En tout temps, même face à des défis exceptionnels, Keir a agi avec intégrité, détermination et dans un esprit de collaboration. Grâce à ses efforts, le monde est plus sûr et les alliés sont plus unis.
Keir, merci d’avoir consacré ta vie au service du public. Je te suis reconnaissant de ton amitié et je te souhaite mes meilleurs vœux alors que tu te consacres désormais à ton « travail le plus important ».
C’est une semaine chargée pour le Canada.
Des projets de loi gouvernementaux historiques viennent d’être adoptés. Ils visent à construire plus de logements abordables, à protéger les communautés vulnérables, à protéger notre démocratie, à renforcer les dispositions relatives à la liberté sous caution et à la détermination de la peine, et à rendre justice aux personnes victimes de violences conjugales et de violences sexuelles.
Nous bâtissons un pays plus fort, plus équitable et plus juste, pour tous.
Steven MacKinnon: I hope that you know the conspiracies and the tinfoil hats are something that will fade away over time, but we can now safely say that it is the Liberal Party that's the party that's most clearly for law and order in the country.
Canada is a reliable partner in a world that is anything but.
That’s why we’re leaving the G7 summit in Évian with 13 new deals that will unlock more than $5 billion of investment at home. With new contracts for Canadian defence workers. With new partnerships that will build a stronger, more secure, more prosperous world for all.
Le Canada est l’un des plus grands défenseurs de l’Ukraine. Au G7, avec le président @ZelenskyyUA, j’ai annoncé que le Canada allait imposer plus de 160 nouvelles sanctions à des individus, entités et navires russes.
Nous maintenons la pression sur la Russie pour qu’elle participe aux négociations de paix — une paix juste et durable — pour le bien de l’Ukraine et de l’Europe.
Prime Minister @GiorgiaMeloni and I are working decisively to drive more collaboration between our nations.
Now, the Italian company Eni is buying graphite from the Nouveau Monde mine in Québec, and we’re going to stockpile critical minerals together. We’ve launched negotiations to buy advanced jet trainer aircraft from Italy — leveraging their expertise in the field.
At the G7, we took stock of this progress and focused on what’s next: https://t.co/V0nk3p9ld0
Former deputy PM John Manley: We used to always refer to the president of the United States as the leader of the free world. Donald Trump is not the leader of anything other than about the 37% of Americans that still support him. If anything, intellectually at least, Mark Carney has become the leader of the free world, the countries that believe in democracy and the rule of law.
Canada and the EU are working more closely together. That’s opening up new contracts for Canadian companies, building our defence capacity, and creating more opportunities for all our peoples.
At the G7 today, President @vonderleyen, @eucopresident António Costa, and I focused on what’s next for this partnership: increased trade, more business deals, and deeper collaboration on climate action.
Canada condemns in the strongest possible terms Russia’s latest missile barrage against Kyiv, including the strike on the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, one of Ukraine’s most sacred sites and a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the many sacred sites in Ukraine and Eastern Christianity. No cause can justify attacks on civilians, places of worship, or cultural treasures that belong to all humanity. These are not acts of war - they are acts of terror. Canada stands unwaveringly with Ukraine.
Poised, present and humorous. Fully on the issues and facts. Prime Minister Mark Carney is one of the most important leaders in Canadian and world history.
Well worth a watch.
