New Canada PM Mark Carney to visit Paris and London amid attacks from Trump
Briefly

Mark Carney, recently sworn in as Canada's Prime Minister, is embarking on a significant foreign trip to Paris and London in response to Donald Trump's perceived threats to Canadian sovereignty and trade. This trip aims to fortify relationships with Canada's founding countries, including meetings with French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Carney's stance is clear: Canada will remain distinct from the U.S., and he plans to assert this sovereignty while navigating international trade challenges. His forthcoming Arctic visit will also focus on Canada's security in that region.
Mark Carney emphasized that Canada, built on the contributions of French, English, and Indigenous peoples, remains fundamentally distinct from the United States and will steadfastly maintain its sovereignty.
Carney's inaugural foreign trip includes crucial discussions with Emmanuel Macron and Keir Starmer to bolster alliances and address the challenges posed by Trump's approach to trade.
