Canada and the European Union (EU) share a close partnership and have launched a Strategic Partnership Agreement (SPA) to further deepen and broaden bilateral cooperation on a wide range of issues such as international peace and security, counter-terrorism, human rights and nuclear non-proliferation, clean energy and climate change, migration and peaceful pluralism, sustainable development, and innovation. The SPA represents the new foundation upon which Canada-EU political relations are based, and the mechanism through which Canada formally engages the EU on significant issues for and in the relationship. Together with the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), the SPA takes Canada-EU relations to a new level of intensified and structured engagement.
