Overseas Trade: Canada
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, when the Canada-UK Economic Working Group last met, and whether he plans to publish a timeline for its future meetings.
Answered by Chris Bryant
In line with the commitment made between our Prime Ministers at June 2025, the UK-Canada Economic and Trade Working Group has met a few times since its establishment in order to identify ways in which the UK and Canada can deepen cooperation and grow our bilateral trading relationship, which was worth around £34bn in 2025. The Working Group last met in April 2026 and will continue to meet when needed to discuss new ideas and tackle barriers to trade. I have also met with my Canadian counterpart several times this year.
