AGP Executive Report
Last update: an hour agoFranco-Canadian Sovereignty Push: France and Canada will send a symbolic message by visiting Saint-Pierre-and-Miquelon next week, after Donald Trump shared a map colouring parts of North America—including Caribbean French territories like Guadeloupe and Martinique—in US colours; President Emmanuel Macron (Sept 19-21) and Prime Minister Mark Carney (joining Sept 20) will stress “freedom, democracy, the rule of law” and respect for national sovereignty.
