PM Mark Carney in Riyadh: Will Human Rights Be on the Table? | Your Morning

Prime Minister Mark Carney is in Riyadh today for a high-stakes meeting with the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia - but critical questions about the visit remain unanswered. As Ottawa seeks closer ties with the Kingdom to diversify global alliances away from the U.S., the PMO has remained silent on whether the Prime Minister will address Saudi Arabia's record on human rights, women’s rights, and migrant workers. Is Canada shifting its diplomatic strategy at the expense of its values? Akaash Maharaj, Senior Fellow at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, helps break down what the Prime Minister hopes to accomplish and why human rights groups are sounding the alarm. #MarkCarney #SaudiArabia #CanadianPolitics #HumanRights #GlobalAffairs #CanadaTrade #Geopolitics #Riyadh #ForeignPolicy #internationalrelations Subscribe to Your Morning for the latest: http://bit.ly/2hX11GF Connect with Your Morning: https://www.ctv.ca/shows/your-morning Follow Your Morning on TikTok:   / yourmorningctv   Start YOUR MORNING with us.
