Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz “agreed to strengthen the diverse trade relationship” between their two countries after a call Thursday morning, Carney said.
Carney has made a point of turning to other countries as alternative trade and security partners to reduce Canada’s reliance on the United States.
The prime minister — who assumed the role after his predecessor, Justin Trudeau, announced his resignation in January — visited France and the United Kingdom for his first trip abroad, and days later announced a deal with Australia for military radar.
