Canada's Mark Carney welcomes 'ambition' of becoming associate EU member during his speech to the European Parliament
The European Union has proposed creating a new "associate member" status, with Canada as the first country to potentially join under this arrangement. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has embraced this prospect and met with French President Macron to deepen economic and defense ties. Carney's outreach to Europe comes as tensions have grown with U.S. President Trump, and Carney is presenting Canada as reducing its historical dependence on the United States.
