“In a more dangerous and divided global landscape, Canada is strengthening our international partnerships to build prosperity and advance shared solutions to the world's most pressing challenges. During his visit, prime minister Carney will engage with governments, business leaders, and civil society to deepen co-operation, drive progress on shared priorities, and deliver new economic opportunities for Canadians,” the prime minister's office – communications said.

The Middle East

At UNGA, the prime minister will meet with world leaders to advance peace, security and human rights. In response to the deteriorating situation in the Middle East, he will stress the urgent need to end the suffering of Palestinian civilians, immediately release all hostages held by Hamas, and ensure progress toward a just and lasting peace. As part of this commitment, Canada intends to formally recognize the State of Palestine – a step predicated on progress on key reform commitments and advanced alongside several international partners.

Haiti

The prime minister will also engage with global partners to discuss efforts to stabilise the dire situation in Haiti.”

Ukraine

Prime Minister Carney will reaffirm Canada's unwavering support for Ukraine in the face of Russia's war of aggression and advance efforts toward a just and durable peace, underpinned by robust security guarantees. Last month in Kyiv, Canada announced the allocation of $2 billion in new military assistance to support Ukraine's urgent defence needs and bolster its ongoing counteroffensive.

On the margins of UNGA, prime minister Carney will co-host a meeting with the president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, convening global leaders to drive international humanitarian support for the immediate and unconditional return of Ukrainian children.

Delivering prosperity for all Canadians

As G7 president, the prime minister Carney will participate in a United Nations summit dedicated to building a sustainable, inclusive, and resilient global economy, where he will affirm Canada's commitment to strengthening financing for development and our leadership in shaping the new international financial architecture.

In parallel, this visit will advance the government's mission to build a strong Canadian economy that is less reliant on any single partner and more resilient in the face of global shocks – delivering prosperity for all Canadians. While in New York City, prime minister Carney will work to elevate Canada's diplomatic partnerships, diversify our markets, underscore the imperative of climate competitiveness, and unlock new opportunities for Canadian workers and businesses as we build the strongest economy in the G7.

“We have the resources the world needs and the values to which others aspire. At this hinge moment in history, Canada is leading with strength – creating new opportunities for Canadian workers and investing in peace, security, and reliable global partnerships to build a safer, more resilient, and more prosperous world for all,” said prime minister Carney.
