EU-Canada joint ministerial committee meeting
The first meeting of the EU-Canada joint ministerial committee took place in Brussels on 4 December 2017. The committee adopted a joint statement:
"We are completely likeminded partners and since the signing of recent agreements our relations moved to an even deeper and stronger partnership. We are both committed and we are both supporting first of all multilateralism and rules-based international order. The importance of this could not be underestimated in these days. So our partnership is strong and beneficial not only for our citizens but also for serving a certain idea of multilateralism and of the world."
Federica Mogherini, High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy
"From Canada's perspective, we value very much our partnership with the European Union and today more than ever we value what the European Union stands for in the world. It stands for democracy, it stands for a strong voice in support of human rights, the European Union is a strong voice in favour of the international rules-based order. We appreciate that, we support you and we are very grateful. We look forward to working as allies in all of these issues in the days and months to come."
Chrystia Freeland, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada
EU-Canada bilateral relationship
The committee agreed to strengthen bilateral cooperation between the EU and Canada. The cooperation has entered a new era with the provisional application of the strategic partnership agreement (SPA) since 1 April 2017 and of the comprehensive economic and trade agreement (CETA) since 21 September 2017.
The committee discussed in particular how to step up security and defence cooperation in areas such as crisis management and security, cyber security and responding to hybrid threats.
The EU and Canada also committed to working together on gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls. The Committee agreed that the EU and Canada will co-chair a Women Foreign Ministers meeting in 2018.
The committee also reviewed how to strengthen EU-Canada cooperation in third countries in regions such as Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa.
Foreign policy coordination
A number of key issues on the international agenda were also discussed, including the situation in eastern Ukraine, Syria, Iraq, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela and Myanmar/Burma.
Global issues
The EU and Canada discussed global issues, including climate change, human rights and democracy, as well as migration and counter-terrorism.
Signing ceremony
In the margins of the meeting, the EU and Canada signed an agreement allowing for the exchange of classified information between them. This agreement enables greater cooperation, including in the framework of common security and defence policy (CSDP) missions and operations.

Innovators are moving forward for the Green Heat and Corrosion Detection challenges//Les innovateurs vont de l'avant pour les défis portant sur l’Énergie verte et la Détection de la corrosion à bord des navires
Green Heat Update: a 477K contract has been awarded! The IDEaS program, in collaboration with Defence Construction Canada (DCC), is thrilled to announce that a contract for the Green Heat Test Drive has been awarded to Black & McDonald. Their creative energy solution will be paired up with existing heating systems to help lower our carbon footprint through a large-scale, low carbon energy generation/transfer system. A test building has been selected in Kingston, Ontario, where the team will begin the design phase. Visit the challenge page to find out more about IDEaS' contribution to the greening of Defence. The Corrosion Detection Sandbox has selected its participants! The Corrosion Detection in Ships Sandbox (CDIS), previously postponed due to COVID-19 restrictions, resumed its call in December 2021. The following nine participants have been selected to travel to Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to demonstrate their innovative solutions at the Center for Ocean Ventures & Entrepreneurship (COVE) facility from April 25 to May 20, 2022. Allied Scientific Pro Canadian Nuclear Labs CMQ Centre de Métallurgie Crawford Technologies Eddyfi Technologies #3, Floormap X InspecTerra MLVX Technologies Inc Qii.AI Visiooimage Inc. They will each have up to five days to test their solutions in real time alongside Department of National Defence/Canadian Armed Forces experts and potential users. The goal of this Sandbox is to demonstrate how we can better detect and assess corrosion behind surface coatings onboard Royal Canadian Navy platforms in order to reduce operational impact and improve the effectiveness of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance. Join us in wishing our participants good luck! For more information, visit the CDIS challenge page. The IDEaS Team Mise à jour Énergie Verte : un contrat de 477K a été remporté ! Le programme IDEeS, en collaboration avec Construction de défense Canada (CDC), est ravi d'annoncer que le contrat pour le Banc d'essai Énergie Verte a été remporté par Black & McDonald. Leur solution créative en matière d'énergie sera combinée à un système de chauffage existant afin de réduire notre empreinte carbone gr'ce à un système de production/transfert d'énergie à grande échelle et à faible teneur en carbone. Un b'timent pilote a été sélectionné à Kingston, en Ontario, où l'équipe débutera la phase design. Visitez la page du défi pour en savoir plus sur la contribution d'IDEeS à l'écologisation de la Défense. Les participants pour l'Environnement protégé Détection de la corrosion à bord des navires ont été sélectionnés! L'Environnement protégé Détection de la corrosion à bord des navires, précédemment reporté en raison des restrictions reliées à la COVID-19, a relancé son appel de propositions en décembre 2021. Les neuf participants suivants ont été sélectionnés pour se rendre à Dartmouth, en Nouvelle-Écosse, pour présenter leurs solutions innovantes au Center for Ocean Ventures & Entrepreneurship Facility (COVE) du 25 avril au 20 mai 2022. Allied Scientific Pro Canadian Nuclear Labs CMQ Centre de Métallurgie Crawford Technologies Eddyfi Technologies #3, Floormap X InspecTerra MLVX Technologies Inc Qii.AI Visiooimage Inc. Ils auront chacun jusqu'à cinq jours pour tester leurs solutions en temps réel aux côtés d'experts du ministère de la Défense nationale/des Forces armées canadiennes et d'utilisateurs potentiels. L'objectif de cet Environnement protégé est de démontrer comment nous pouvons mieux détecter et évaluer la corrosion derrière les revêtements de surface à bord des plates-formes de la Marine royale canadienne afin de réduire l'impact opérationnel et d'améliorer l'efficacité de la maintenance planifiée et non planifiée. Joignez-vous à nous pour souhaiter bonne chance à nos participants! Pour plus d'informations, rendez-vous sur la page du défi Détection de la corrosion à bord des navires. L'équipe IDEeS
