  To open the 45th Canadian Parliament, Prime Minister Mark Carney invited Charles III to deliver the Speech from the Throne, an act described as a symbolic affirmation of Canada's sovereignty. Among the items outlined in the speech was the government's intention to join ReArm Europe, a European-led defence initiative. In June 2025, Canada hosted the 51st G7 summit in Kananaskis, Alberta. In his capacity as chair, Carney opened the summit and invited other world leaders, including India's Narendra Modi, Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and Saudi Arabia's Mohammed bin Salman.
