Carney announced that King Charles III and Queen Camilla will be visiting Canada later this month, a move he labeled as a strategic invitation, symbolizing the nation’s sovereignty amid Trump's previous comments. The King is to assist in inaugurating Canada’s 45th Parliament, which will take place on 27 May. The last occasion when a monarch performed this ceremony was in 1977, underscoring its significance.

The prime minister is set to meet Trump at the White House on Tuesday, amidst ongoing tensions relating to tariffs and trade regulations. Carney stressed the importance of obtaining the best possible deal for Canada, ensuring that discussions would not be rushed but rather approached with seriousness.

In a bid for unity, Carney extended olive branches to those who did not support his Liberal Party amidst a division highlighted during the federal election. He remarked on the necessity for “Team Canada” spirit to confront current challenges, including the rising cost of living that was a focal point during the election, especially for Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, who lost his parliamentary seat.

Carney committed to addressing Canadians' concerns swiftly and efficiently, stating his readiness to work collaboratively, reinforcing that "no games" will be played in politics going forward.
