- Canada’s Bet on Europe: Why Germany Matters | Open Question

- Description
- Mark Carney is betting big on Europe — and Germany is central to that bet.
As Canada looks to rely less on the United States, it’s looking across the Atlantic to build closer ties with Europe. There’s even talk of Canada becoming the European Union’s first associate member.
Germany is a natural partner in that effort. It’s Europe’s economic heavyweight, a key player in European security, and a country with its own reasons to deepen ties with Canada.
So what could the two countries actually build together?
On this week’s Open Question, German Ambassador to Canada Matthias Lüttenberg talks about the prospect of EU associate membership, the push to strengthen both countries’ militaries, and Canada’s potential as an energy superpower.
We also look at the political challenges facing Germany at home, and what they could mean for its ability to lead in Europe.
