Prime Minister Mark Carney will meet with French President Emmanuel Macron in Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, a French territory off the coast of Newfoundland, on September 20 to discuss energy, defence, aerospace, critical minerals, quantum satellites, and supercomputing. The meeting aims to strengthen bilateral partnerships given shared historical ties and common values. Carney's European trip also includes addressing the European Parliament in Strasbourg and attending the State of the European Union address, alongside hosting an investment summit in Toronto earlier that week.
