Canada and Denmark are Allies and partners in our shared responsibility for the security and resilience of the Arctic.
As I reaffirmed to PM Frederiksen today, Canada will always support the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Denmark, including Greenland. Together, we’ll keep working to secure peace in Ukraine and across Europe.

Thanks to Minister @RechieValdez for visiting President @acserrano at our RBC Centre for Emerging Artists & Designers. It was great to discuss the important role that creatives play in Canada’s economy and showcase Fineline.art, an art marketplace and co-op at #OCADU.

For some children school is the safest place in their lives. Poilievre and @Sflecce should know this. Either they are both using this debate to cover their trans and homophobia or it’s political pandering. Disgusting either way. cbc.ca/news/politics/poiliev…
