Carney Set to Make the Case for Multilateralism at United Nations Event

Canada’s UN ambassador stood in for Mark Carney after an air traffic control failure canceled hundreds of flights in the U.S. northeast, officials said.

  • On Monday, Prime Minister Mark Carney arrived in New York for the United Nations General Assembly to champion multilateralism as President Donald Trump's policies reshape global institutions.
  • In a Financial Times opinion piece published Sunday, Carney and global leaders argued the global community is more interdependent than ever, "even as it becomes more fragmented and polarized."
  • Technical failures at a Philadelphia air traffic facility halted operations at every major airport in the New York City area on Monday, forcing Canada's Ambassador to the United Nations David Lametti to replace Carney at the Partners for Multilateralism roundtable.
  • Ahead of his 81st Session General Assembly address on Tuesday, President Trump announced a "massive Deal with respect to the purchase of Potash from Belarus," intensifying trade friction with Canada.
  • Carney has emerged as a coalition builder aiming to link the European Union and CPTPP so middle powers can resist economic coercion by the U.S. and China as Trump realigns the global order.
