European Vacation: Canada’s Carney to attend EU’s State of the Union

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney will join European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen for the most high-profile political moment in the EU’s calendar, amid a worsening rift between the U.S. and Ottawa.

A European Commission official close to von der Leyen confirmed to POLITICO that Carney had accepted an invitation to attend the State of the EU speech in Strasbourg on Sept. 16, where the president will set out her priorities for the bloc.


He should just move Parliament to Tuscany.
