 Bonjour tout le monde. It is a real pleasure to welcome President von der Leyen to Canada. Ursula, thank you so much for being here. No matter where we are, NATO meetings, Canada EU summit, Brussels, G7 leaderships, I've always been able to count on your insights, your friendship and your steadfast values. Just ahead of International Women's Day tomorrow, I'm struck by the fact that we're here not only with the President of the European Union, but also with our Deputy Prime Minister, our Minister of Defense, and our Minister of Foreign Affairs, who all happen to be strong women leaders. That is always a pleasure to see. Every day, their expertise and dedication makes the future brighter for people on both sides of the Atlantic. The links that unite Canada and Europe are narrow, and our solidarity continue to tighten. Today, we strengthen even more our partnership, and we begin with the support we offer together with Ukraine. We're here at Canadian Forces Base Kingston to meet and thank the women and men supporting operations in Europe. This includes personnel involved in training Ukrainian security forces, Canadians in uniform who've been deployed in Poland to support Ukrainian refugees, and in Latvia to support NATO. There can be no doubt, just as the resolve of our brave women and men in uniform is unwavering, so too is the bond between Canada and Europe. Already, Canada has provided military support to Ukraine and put in place sanctions and punitive economic measures against the Russian regime. Together, President Evander Lyon and I also co-hosted an international pledging event for Ukrainians who've been forced from their homes, many of whom have become refugees. For as long as it takes, we will stand shoulder to shoulder together with our European partners for Ukraine. Today, I can announce that we are extending our engineering training as part of Operation Unifier until at least the fall and deploying CAF medical trainers to help Ukrainian forces with combat medical skills. We're also investing $3 million for demining in Ukraine and working with the EU to deliver energy equipment to Ukraine for their power grid. We will also deploy medical trainers of the Canadian Armed Forces to help Ukrainian forces acquire combat medical skills. Moreover, the European Union has granted Canada a partner status in terms of its regime of control of exports and sanctions against Russia. This will help us strengthen our cooperation in terms of sanctions applications. As I said to President von der Leyen, Canada will remain the leader of Ukraine's population for as long as it takes. Today, the President and I also talked about another shared priority, growing strong and resilient economies and creating jobs on both sides of the Atlantic. For over six years now, CETA has helped our businesses work together to create growth and opportunities. Later this afternoon, we'll be visiting a Canadian company that recycles lithium-ion batteries for clean tech like electric vehicles. Lycicle is not only creating jobs and building up our critical mineral supply in Canada, they're opening plants in Europe, too, so they can do the same there. Whether it's ways that Canada is leading or ways the EU is leading or ways in which we're leading together, this partnership means good jobs for our workers and resources that the world needs. So today, we're strengthening this partnership even further. During the visit of Chancellor Scholz last summer, we took the commitment to proceed to the first hydrogen exports to Germany by 2025. Today, we're announcing the passage to a new step with an improved action plan on hydrogen between Canada and the European Union. The new Canada-EU Enhanced Action Plan on Hydrogen will mobilize investment, support businesses, share expertise, and get clean Canadian hydrogen to Europe. Fundamentally, it's about good middle-class jobs, economic growth, and clean energy. This is on top of work together on protecting nature and fighting climate change to deliver a strong future for our kids and grandkids. There is so much that Canada and Europe share, a commitment to the people of Ukraine, to defending democracy and international law, and to protecting human rights, shared values like gender equality, and a commitment to growing the middle class and making sure people have good careers they can be proud of and build their families and communities around, and a belief that we can and will build a strong, healthy future for generations to come. Canada and Europe are friends, allies, and trade partners. By strengthening our ties, we have built a stronger and more promising future for all our citizens. Ursula, once again, it was a great pleasure to have you here with us today.
