Carney arrives in Turkey for meetings with Turkish president, business leaders
Carney arrives in Turkey for three-day trade trip
THE CANADIAN PRESS/Adrian Wyld
Prime Minister Mark Carney arrived in Turkey on Thursday to kick off a three-day trip aimed at deepening political and economic ties with the NATO ally.
Carney is set to meet with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Ankara, in what the Prime Minister's Office says will be the first bilateral visit by a Canadian prime minister to Turkey.
Shortly after landing on Thursday, Carney laid a wreath at the mausoleum of Turkish founding father Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.
Joining Carney on the trip are Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand and Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson.
Senior government officials told reporters ahead of the trip that Hodgson’s presence on the trip speaks to the importance of energy projects in talks between the nations.
Canada and Turkey do about $4 billion in trade annually, and formally launched talks to pursue a free-trade pact on the sidelines of the NATO summit in Ankara earlier this year.
Carney's bid to diversify trade beyond the United States and find new global investors for Canadian infrastructure projects is well-suited to deeper ties with Turkey, said Kerim Uras, the former Turkish ambassador to Canada.
Both the Canadian and Turkish economies need alternatives to the increasingly protectionist U.S. market, Uras said.
While neither country can replace the United States with any one partner, forging connections between middle powers should be part of the path forward, he said.
"One can summarize it like the Carney doctrine meets Turkish pragmatism," said Uras, now a senior fellow at Carleton University's Centre in Modern Turkish Studies.
After meeting Erdogan in Ankara, Carney will head to Istanbul for meetings with Turkish business leaders on Friday before heading back to Canada on Saturday.

U.S. embassy accuses Canadian politicians of interfering in American elections
U.S. embassy accuses Canada of election meddling
THE CANADIAN PRESS/Keito Newman
The U.S. embassy in Canada has released a list of quotes from Canadian politicians which it says indicate "plans to influence American politics."
Industry Minister Melanie Joly is quoted five times in the list the embassy released today.
It includes context-free quotes from Joly about pressuring American businesses and targeting U.S. states, which addressed Canada's response to American-imposed tariffs.
In a news conference on Parliament Hill today, Prime Minister Mark Carney didn't directly address the accusations but pointed out that the United States initiated trade actions against Canada.
He said everything Canada has done since has been in the interests of Canadian workers and families.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who is also quoted in the U.S. embassy document, said he has no interest in interfering in American elections.
