Summary
A draft Canada–European Union statement proposes letting Canadian firms bid on some European cloud and artificial intelligence infrastructure contracts. The plan also covers Canada joining Europe’s Galileo satellite system, investment in Canadian critical minerals and the joint purchase of 50 Canadian-made water bombers, expected to be ready for wildfire use in 2030. The leaders are due to discuss the proposals at a summit in Montreal on Oct. 29 and 30.
