Building a strong Canada means creating new opportunities for Canadian workers, businesses, and exporters to compete and succeed on the world stage. Trade diversification is essential to strengthening our economy, reducing reliance on any single trade partner, and creating long term growth for Canada’s economy.
We’ve made history. For the first time, two trade agreement bills are receiving Royal Assent on the same day – a milestone that reflects the speed and ambition of Canada’s trade agenda.
Minister Sidhu announced that Canada’s new government has now passed two landmark trade agreements into law: one with the United Kingdom and one with Indonesia. Together, these agreements expand Canada’s reach to more than 340 million consumers and reinforce Canada’s position as a global trading nation.
This is the most ambitious trade diversification agenda in Canadian history. In just under one year, we have passed two trade agreement bills – and we are only getting started.
Non-U.S. goods and services exports are already up $33 billion in 2025 compared to 2024. The strategy is working. The results are real.
Canada is showing up, competing, and winning on the global stage. That’s how we build Canada strong, for all.
