Carney says Canada is seeking to become EU's first associate member

Original: Carney says, unequivocally, Canada seeking to become EU's first associate member

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has stated, in his own words 'unequivocally', that Canada is pursuing associate membership of the European Union, which would make it the first country to hold such a status. The move would deepen Canada's ties with Europe at a time of strained relations with the United States, and follows discussions with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

Why now: Associate EU membership would be an unprecedented shift for a non-European country and signals Canada's strategic pivot away from the US
