Summary

Minister Hodgson reaffirmed Canada’s enduring commitment to transatlantic stability and Arctic co-operation. The Minister and the Commissioner discussed further co-operation on multilateral critical minerals mechanisms, including the Critical Minerals Production Alliance and Critical Minerals Action Plan. Building on the direction provided in the EU–Canada Strategic Partnership of the Future launched in June 2025, the Minister and Commissioner discussed EU instruments that could facilitate enhanced Canada–EU trade and investment, including the EU’s aggregate liquefied natural gas (LNG) purchasing mechanism. “Extortion is a serious crime that harms Canadians, businesses, and communities. Our government is strengthening financial intelligence and working closely with law enforcement and financial institutions to better detect and disrupt extortion, support investigations, and help protect Canadians.” - The Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Finance and National Revenue Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support .
