The UK and Canadian prime ministers will meet for the first time in Liverpool.
Andy Burnham will welcome Mark Carney to his native city on Tuesday (September 15) as part of a three-day trip to Europe to discuss relations between the nations.
Mr Carney was previously governor for the Bank of England and a self-confessed Everton fan who is also a patron of its official charity Everton in the Community.
He also provided backing alongside fellow Toffees fan Mr Burnham to the club’s appeal against point deductions for breaching the Premier League’s financial rules.
The pair’s first in-person summit will focus on priorities for the UK-Canada relationship specifically defence and security, energy and artificial intelligence.
“In a more dangerous and divided world, Canada and our European partners are moving ever closer,” said Carney.
“Our shared values, complementary strengths, and common interests serve as the strong foundation on which we can build a stronger future.
“Together, Canada and our European partners have the ambition and strength to create a more just, stable, and universally prosperous world.”
