It would establish a deeper EU-Canada partnership that goes beyond existing cooperation, including the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) and the military mobility and logistics projects under Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO). <\/p>\n<p>The aim is to build an \u201cAlliance for the Future to create a common prosperity and economic security space\u201d, said President von der Leyen. While not yet finalised, the partnership would cover critical policies across manufacturing, energy, minerals, AI, quantum computing, cybersecurity, the Arctic, as well as a tech alliance and integrated defence industrial bases. <\/p>\n<p>The push comes as both partners\u2019 relationship with the US grows more uncertain, and dependence becomes riskier.<\/p>\n<p>Stronger ties with Canada could help the EU reduce its reliance on the US for energy, technology, and defence. At the same time, the partnership could give Canada a like-minded ally as it seeks to reduce its economic dependence while caught up in a tariff dispute with the US, which, as of August 2026, is imposing up to 50% duties on some Canadian goods. <\/p>\n<p>Do you want to know more about the EU\u2019s strategy to strengthen its relationship with Canada?

become Europe\u2019s first &#8220;associate member\u201d during her State of the Union address in Strasbourg, France, on 16 September.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s the first time the EU has offered this status to a third country. If all 27 member states agree, the EU would have to create a new legal framework, including rights and obligations, since current EU treaties do not include \u201cassociate membership\u201d.\u00a0The proposal does not mean Canada will join the EU. It would establish a deeper EU-Canada partnership that goes beyond existing cooperation, including the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) and the military mobility and logistics projects under Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO).\u00a0The aim is to build an \u201cAlliance for the Future to create a common prosperity and economic security space\u201d, said President von der Leyen. While not yet finalised, the partnership would cover critical policies across manufacturing, energy, minerals, AI, quantum computing, cybersecurity, the Arctic, as well as a tech alliance and integrated defence industrial bases. \u00a0The push comes as both partners\u2019 relationship with the US grows more uncertain, and dependence becomes riskier.Stronger ties with Canada could help the EU reduce its reliance on the US for energy, technology, and defence. At the same time, the partnership could give Canada a like-minded ally as it seeks to reduce its economic dependence while caught up in a tariff dispute with the US, which, as of August 2026, is imposing up to 50% duties on some Canadian goods.\u00a0Do you want to know more about the EU\u2019s strategy to strengthen its relationship with Canada?
