Today, for the first anniversary of Canada’s Africa Strategy, I met with parliamentarians, leaders, partners, and members of the African diaspora. From increased trade and investment to stronger people-to-people ties, Canada will continue to work with partners across the continent to deliver long-term stability and shared economic growth.

Happy #StPatricksDay! There are more than 4.4 million people reporting Irish heritage in Canada. With early Irish settlements in the Maritimes to the vibrant communities across the country today, their influence is woven into Canada’s story. How are you celebrating this year? 🍀🇨🇦

The Minister of National defence is telling us Pierre Poilievre put some of our soldiers in harms way by posting on social media and doxing their whereabouts in Qatar. Perhaps this is why he chose not to get his security clearance, so he can play stupid after the fact.
🚨WATCH: “And dare I go one step further, I think if Mr. Poilievre had the requisite security clearance, he might get a briefing that would indicate otherwise, and he might actually change his perspective.” - Min of National Defence @DavidMcGuinty

Quebec is the only producer of graphite in the G7 - and that material is used for defence, manufacturing and clean tech we rely on. That’s why in November 2025, we referred the Matawinie Mine to the Major Projects Office.
Now, we're unlocking the project's next step by announcing an agreement in principle for $459M in financing.
In an increasingly uncertain world, your government is focused on building up Canadian resource projects, creating good Canadian jobs, and attracting international investment.
It’s projects like these that make us an energy and resource superpower, and put Canada on the map as our allies' supplier of choice.

Good. It wasn't.
Those terrorists came down to kill the Prime Minister and overthrow the government. They had PR, money, and support from MAGA figures in the U.S.
It was a MAGA operation that had to be crushed to save our democracy and thank God Trudeau had the stones to do it
