Candu attitude: Carney pegs ‘good chances’ on Canadian bid for Turkey nuclear plant

Carney, Canada's Prime Minister, is currently in Turkey to solidify a new strategic partnership and explore potential free trade agreements with the NATO ally. During his visit, Carney expressed confidence in a Canadian bid, AtkinsRéalis, to supply two planned Turkish power plants with the Candu nuclear reactor. Energy plays a key role in the recently announced partnership.

In tragic news from Canada, the mother of Private Shaun Farrell, a soldier who died in a fire at a military base in Alberta, spoke about her son's lifelong dream to serve in the Canadian Forces. Despite living with dyslexia and Asperger's syndrome, Private Farrell overcame any obstacle in his path to join the military. Of the four soldiers killed in the fire at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright, 39 were hospitalized after the grass fire, fueled by high winds, overtook a live-fire training exercise.

Prime Minister Carney dismissed claims of U.S. interference in Canadian politics, stating there is "no merit" to the accusations made by the Trump administration.
