thestar.com [$]

Prime Minister Mark Carney will meet UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham for the first time in Liverpool during a three-day European trip starting Tuesday, focusing on defence, security, energy, AI, and critical minerals. The meeting follows Carney's earlier congratulations after Burnham took office on July 20, becoming the UK's fourth prime minister in four years amid political turnover. Carney will also address the European Parliament in Strasbourg. The trip comes as Canada deepens European ties amid worsening US relations, including new counter tariffs on US goods that took effect Tuesday after trade talks collapsed in late August.
