Canadian Finance Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne poses for AFP in Toronto, Ontario, on September 14, 2026. Canada is a safe place to invest "in a very uncertain world," the country's finance minister told AFP on Monday, ahead of a summit where the country is eyeing an unprecedented haul of private-sector investment. Prime Minister Mark Carney has pitched the Canada Investment Summit, taking place on September 15, as an opportunity to sell the world's top CEOs and business leaders on investing in Canada, a mineral- and energy-rich country seeking to reduce its dependence on the United States. A list of attendees has not been made public, but Canadian Finance Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne told AFP the people in the room control more than C$120 trillion (US$86 trillion) in global capital.
