“On behalf of the Government of Canada, I congratulate Prime Minister Boris Johnson on his electoral victory.

“Loyal friends, allies, and partners, we will continue to work together to defend our common values and build a prosperous future for all our citizens. Whether through the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, United Nations, G7, G20, or the Commonwealth, we will always stand united in the pursuit of a safer, more just, and more peaceful world.”
