Carney heading to the U.K. to talk trade with world leaders

Sep 24, 2025 | 11:11 AM

OTTAWA — Prime Minster Mark Carney is heading to the United Kingdom this week to discuss trade ties and other geopolitical issues with world leaders.

The Prime Minister’s Office says Carney will be in London from Sept. 25 to 28.

He’s set to meet with U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and the prime ministers of Iceland, Australia, Spain and Denmark.

His office says he’ll also sit down with business leaders and institutional investors as part of a broader push to advance trade with international partners.

Carney and his ministers have worked since coming to office to deepen Canada’s international ties — particularly with Europe — in response to the United States’ embrace of protectionist tariff policies.
