  "account": "Prime Minister Mark Carney is scheduled to speak to his Liberal caucus in Ottawa on Friday, as the Liberal caucus retreat precedes the fall sitting of the House of Commons on Monday. Carney recently returned from Strasbourg, France, where he aimed to strengthen Canada's alliance with Europe, focusing on trade, defence, and personal connections. These efforts are part of his broader strategy to lessen Canada's dependence on the United States. During a significant address to the European Parliament on Thursday, Carney expressed his support for European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's vision to make Canada the first \"associate member\" of the European Union.",
