Carney pitches Canada to investors, vows ‘unique alliance’ with EU amid US trade war
–
Neutral summary
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney told the inaugural Canada Investment Summit in Toronto on Tuesday that Canada will pursue a “unique security and economic alliance” with Europe, pitching the country as a “safe harbour” for foreign capital as his government seeks to reduce reliance on US trade. Hundreds of investors overseeing nearly $120 trillion in assets are attending the summit, which Ottawa hopes will attract trillions of dollars in investment. Carney also said Canada will not rush into a trade deal with Washington and will emerge “stronger, more resilient, more independent” from the trade war. Ottawa is separately seeking closer EU ties, including a possible arrangement allowing Canadians to live and work across the bloc without visas; on Monday, hundreds of activists protested in downtown Toronto over privatization concerns linked to the summit.
