About this episode

The episode discusses the Canada-France defense pact and initiatives for child online safety.

Canada and France are forging tighter defense and industrial alliances, unlocking new collaboration opportunities for Canadian firms in defense, space, and AI — and paving the way for more Canadian defense contracts in Europe. Prime Minister Carney and President Macron also agreed to deepen cooperation on energy, critical minerals, and child online safety, with France already banning social media for kids under 15 and Canada eyeing similar rules for those under 16. As France hosts the G7, leaders are expected to issue targeted declarations on global crises, Ukraine, and AI, while Canada signals readiness to support maritime stability and peace efforts in the Middle East.
