Excellent discussion with 🇪🇺🇨🇦 business leaders.
As Europe and Canada take their partnership to the next level, their insights are essential.
They know first-hand how geopolitical tensions, growing competition and pressure on resources affect our economies.
So their experience will turn our ambition into action.
At the turn of the last century, Jean Monnet discovered Canada's pioneering spirit.
He brought that spirit back to Europe.
And went on to become one of the founding fathers of our Union.
Today, that same spirit inspires us to explore a historic first:
Canada becoming the EU’s first associate member ↓

The old world order has clearly showed its limits.
It’s time to reimagine how we work together:
forging new partnerships built on trust, shared prosperity and economic security.
This is the ambition behind our Alliance for the Future.
To face common challenges together, drawing on our different but complementary strengths.
Dear @ZelenskyyUa, I am heartbroken at the news of the senseless and indiscriminate attack that Russia has carried out in Dnipro.
My sincere condolences to the victims’ families and loved ones, and to the people of Ukraine.
Together with our allies, we must do everything in our power to mount pressure on the aggressor.
This is why strengthening our support for Ukraine will be high on my agenda in Montréal.
And tomorrow, @EU_Commission will put forward a proposal to allocate the remaining €45 billion of the Ukraine Support Loan for 2027 defence needs and budget support.
Christine! Thank you for everything you have done for Europe and the euro.
From the pandemic to Russia’s war of aggression, your steady hand has helped keep our economy stable and resilient.
You have championed deeper financial integration at home.
And on the world’s stage, you embody what every currency needs: trust and authority.
That's how you strengthened Europe's economic sovereignty and reinforced the international role of the euro, which was so important to you.
The world needs more leaders like you. And I hope many more women will follow in your footsteps.
@Lagarde
🛬 Touchdown in Montréal 🇨🇦
Rarely have I looked forward to a Summit this much.
An ocean separates Europe and Canada. Yet we have never felt closer.
We have a new ambition: bringing Canada closer to us than ever before, as Associate Member of the EU.
And we want to take our unique partnership even further.
With an Alliance for the Future, we will stand together and respond to a world of growing rivalries.
Montréal, we’re about to write a new chapter in our shared history.
Just received the devastating news from Toledo on the collision of two high-speed trains.
My heart goes out to the victims’ families and loved ones.
Today, Europe mourns with you.
Europe will always stand up for the protection of its borders.
This is why today we propose to strengthen Frontex.
So it can support Member States whenever and wherever needed.
Including on returns, with the mandate and capabilities that this new reality demands.

Europe is warming at double the global rate.
To become truly climate resilient, we need to adjust and learn along the way.
Our European Climate Resilience Framework will help us anticipate, prepare for, and manage climate risks.
By including climate resilience in policies across the Union, supporting investment, innovation and long-term growth.

In today's world, Europe needs to be fast, simple and focused.
With our large-scale review, we aim for more efficiency.
More results.
Faster.
So we can deliver the best possible 🇪🇺 public service for our citizens ↓ nitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1MJgNbkvY…
This is why for the past 18 months, we have reviewed how the Commission works.
Drawing on internal and external expertise alike.
To ensure we remain an administration that turns political choices into action.
And rises to the challenges of its time.
@Piotr_Serafin will present the final report in the coming months.
It will be the foundation on which we'll build the European civil service of the future.
Congratulations to my friend @LulaOficial on his electoral victory.
Democracy and multilateralism have won in Brazil.
Europe’s partnership with Brazil is thriving.
We will remain by your side for the years to come.
Together we will keep working closely for free and open trade.
A rules-based global order.
And strong ambitions for our climate.
Today, the people of Serbia turned out in record numbers to shape their country’s future.
Congratulations to the Student List on its victory in the parliamentary elections.
We stand ready to support reforms on the rule of law, media freedom, the fight against corruption and strong democratic institutions, and to work together to advance Serbia’s future in the European Union.

Congratulations on your Republic Day Kazakhstan ! 🇰🇿
35 years ago, you gained your independence.
And you brought your uniquely rich culture to the world.
Today, Europe is a proud partner of Kazakhstan.
Together, we are building a more prosperous, connected and resilient Central Asia.
And a strong partnership for generations to come.
Six months ago, Hungary voted for a new chapter.
Turning the page on years of eroded freedoms and trust.
And the banks of the Danube who saw people march and die 70 years ago.
That night saw people dance and celebrate a revived democracy in Hungary.
Once again, a powerful message of hope was sent to the world.
The martyrs of 1956 gave their lives for freedom.
Their memory reminds us that the triumph of democracy is not inevitable.
Every generation must fight to renew our freedoms and reenergise our democracy ↓ nitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1yxBePgvX…
