Prime Minister Mark Carney hosted Jordan’s King Abdullah II in Ottawa on Monday, marking their first in-person meeting since Carney took office in March.
The two leaders explored ways to expand bilateral trade and investment as part of Canada’s broader strategy to diversify economic partnerships.

The funding will also support Jordan’s education and health sectors, along with job creation programmes for refugees.
