Every year, some of the world’s most powerful leaders meet to discuss political and economic issues in the G7 summit. This year’s meeting, held in Kananaskis, Alberta, wrapped up on Tuesday. It was also the first G7 summit for Prime Minister Mark Carney.
The G7 offered an opportunity for leaders to try to improve relations with U.S. President Donald Trump, whose second term has been marked by tensions and trade wars. After increasing attacks between Israel and Iran, Trump left the summit on Monday night to deal with the “big stuff” escalating in the Middle East.
Nathan VanderKlippe is an international correspondent for The Globe. He’s on the show to talk about what was discussed at the G7, how Trump’s departure affects discussions on the war in Ukraine, and what a successful G7 summit looks like in Canada.
