Canada supports EU membership efforts

Canada welcomed the European Union's plans to grant it associate membership in the European bloc, despite threats from U.S. President Donald Trump to impose tariffs on Europe if it proceeds with this step. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen confirmed the EU's desire to strengthen its relationship with Canada and to open the door for its accession as an associate member, although this category is not currently recognized and requires approval from member states. This comes at a time of escalating trade tensions between Canada and the United States, especially after Trump raised tariffs on Canadian goods, prompting Canada to respond with reciprocal tariffs. Von der Leyen's support indicates the EU's interest in deepening relations with Ottawa and balancing the current trade tensions.
