OTTAWA — Abu Dhabi’s crown prince is in Ottawa for meetings today as Canada and the United Arab Emirates work to cement their trade ties.
Prime Minister Mark Carney will greet and participate in a welcome ceremony for Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Parliament Hill, before the pair take part in a signing ceremony.
Canada and the UAE concluded negotiations on a free trade agreement earlier this year in what both countries have called a “record” time of 47 days.
Carney hosted a state dinner for the crown prince in downtown Ottawa on Monday, where he said the countries’ shared determination to “build for the future” is what binds them.
