Carney says new alliance with EU will help both sides ‘withstand shocks together’

Prime Minister Mark Carney pitched a new alliance between Canada and the European Union as a way to build a “more resilient world” in the face of rising nationalist forces.

“It means, at its base, sovereignty,” said the prime minister, marking the official opening of the Canada-EU summit in Montreal on Friday.

“Greater resilience [and the] ability to withstand shocks together.”
