“Today marks the start of National Indigenous History Month – a time to deepen our understanding of the rich and diverse histories, cultures, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis across Canada.
“As Her Excellency the Right Honourable Mary Simon prepares to conclude her time as Governor General of Canada, we thank her for her service and devotion to our country. Her lifetime of leadership, advocacy, and hard work has made Canada a stronger, more just, inclusive country.
Statement by Prime Minister Carney on Eid al-Adha
“Today, Muslims across Canada and around the world will celebrate the beginning of Eid al-Adha. This sacred day, also known as the Feast of Sacrifice, marks the end of the Hajj pilgrimage.
Eid al-Adha is a celebration of compassion, generosity, and service. These are values that are fundamental to Canada and at the heart of Canadian Muslims’ contributions to building a stronger, more prosperous future for all.
I wish a blessed and happy Eid al-Adha to all those celebrating. Eid Mubarak.”
Statement by Prime Minister Carney commemorating the Komagata Maru incident
“On this day in 1914, 376 Sikhs, Muslims, and Hindus of South Asian origin arrived in Vancouver’s harbour aboard the steamship Komagata Maru. Their voyage was made in search of a better life for themselves and their families.
Instead of offering them refuge, Canadian authorities refused nearly all on board the vessel entry and forced them to remain on the ship for two months, with limited access to food, water, and medical care. When the Komagata Maru was forced to return to India, then under colonial rule, many of its passengers were imprisoned or killed.
The Komagata Maru tragedy is one of the darkest chapters in our history – a moment where Canada failed to uphold our values, with horrific consequences. It reminds us of the appalling repercussions of discrimination and racism. Today, we honour the memory of all the passengers, their descendants, and their communities who suffered.
We are building a Canada that is not just strong, but good. A Canada that is not just prosperous, but fair. A Canada that is not just for some, most of the time – but for all, all of the time.”
Joint statement on the situation in the West Bank
“Statement by the leaders of Canada, Australia, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand and the United Kingdom on the situation in the West Bank.
Over the past few months, the situation in the West Bank has deteriorated significantly. Settler violence is at unprecedented levels. The policies and practices of the Israeli government, including a further entrenchment of Israeli control, are undermining stability and prospects for a two-state solution.

“Today, we join Tamil communities in Canada and around the world in commemorating Tamil Genocide Remembrance Day.

“One year ago, 11 people were killed and dozens were injured in a horrific vehicle attack at the Lapu-Lapu Day festival in Vancouver. On this solemn day, we remember the victims – children, parents, and friends who were taken by this senseless act of violence. We also commend the quick and compassionate actions of those who were at the scene and of the first responders.
“Today, we join Armenian communities in Canada and around the world in commemorating Armenian Genocide Memorial Day, also known as Medz Yeghern. We honour the victims and all those who endured unimaginable suffering during this dark chapter in history.
In 2006, Canada officially recognised the Armenian Genocide – providing long overdue acknowledgment of this tragedy. With recognition comes the promise that we will never forget the persecution, violence, and atrocities committed against the Armenian people.
In Canada, April marks Genocide Remembrance, Condemnation and Prevention Month – a time to reflect on the consequences of ignorance and complicity. The responsibility to confront hate belongs to all of us, and that responsibility begins with remembrance. Through remembrance, we commit to vigilance – so that these atrocities are never repeated.”
“Today, Sikhs in Canada and around the world celebrate one of the most sacred days in Sikhism, Vaisakhi.
More than three centuries ago, in 1699, Guru Gobind Singh Ji founded the Khalsa – a distinct order united by the Sikh faith and a shared identity rooted in justice, charity, and service. For millions of Sikhs in Canada and around the world, this is a day for prayer and a moment to reaffirm those values.

“On Yom HaShoah, also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jewish men, women, and children who were systematically and senselessly murdered by the Nazi regime in one of the darkest chapters of human history. We also honour the heroes who fought against the horrors of the Holocaust.

“We welcome the two-week ceasefire concluded between the United States and Iran today.
We thank Pakistan and all partners involved for facilitating this important agreement.
“We welcome the two-week ceasefire concluded between the United States and Iran today.
We thank Pakistan and all partners involved for facilitating this important agreement.
The goal must now be to negotiate a swift and lasting end to the war within the coming days. This can only be achieved through diplomatic means.
We strongly encourage quick progress towards a substantive negotiated settlement.
This will be crucial to protect the civilian population of Iran and ensure security in the region. It can avert a severe global energy crisis.
We support these diplomatic efforts. To this end, we are in close contact with the United States and other partners.
We call upon all sides to implement the ceasefire, including in Lebanon.
Our Governments will contribute to ensuring freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.”

The global economy is rapidly changing, and many Canadians are feeling the effects at home – including increased pressure on housing and infrastructure. In response, Canada’s new government is focused on what we can control: increasing our housing supply and investing in modern and reliable infrastructure to build stronger, more affordable communities for Canadians.

“Tonight at sundown, Jewish communities in Canada and around the world will mark the beginning of Passover.
Passover commemorates the exodus of the Israelites after centuries of enslavement in ancient Egypt. It is a story of faith and perseverance, and a testament to the resilience of a people who overcame immense hardship on their journey to freedom.
That resilience is being called upon as Jewish communities confront a devastating and unacceptable resurgence of antisemitism, as well as threats or attacks on synagogues, schools, and community centres. Our government has taken action by introducing the Combatting Hate Act, which will make it a criminal offence to intentionally and wilfully obstruct access to places of worship, schools, and religious or cultural community centres. Together, we will continue to build a country where Jewish Canadians can always live openly, freely, and safely.

“Today, I join Canadians in mourning the loss of Stephen Lewis, a pillar of compassionate leadership in Canadian democracy and a renowned global champion for human rights and multilateralism.
As a member of Ontario’s legislature, Leader of the Ontario New Democratic Party, and Canada’s Ambassador to the United Nations, Mr. Lewis moved millions with his appeals for a compassionate and just society.

In an increasingly dangerous and divided world, Canada must be prepared – to defend ourselves and our values, to secure our sovereignty, and to stand with our Allies. For too long, Canada did not sufficiently build that strength. By 2014, Canada’s defence spending had fallen to just 1% of our GDP, half of our obligations as a NATO member.
