What a great celebration. Thank you @ChiefSciCan for your leadership on international science and of course your partnership with @uksciencechief and @UKinCanada
Today marks the 7th anniversary of the Office of the Chief Science Advisor of Canada! Heartfelt thanks for all of your support over the years. I look forward to our continued collaboration to advance science and foster a deeper understanding of its role in our society.

It's an incredible privilege to represent 🇬🇧 overseas. Even more so with such a close ally in the form of 🇨🇦. Huge well done to all the team @UKinCanada, @rafredarrows and @CFSnowbirds in making this such a memorable event and to @SDoughtyMP for joining us!
The Snowbirds lead the Red Arrows over Ottawa to mark the formal opening of the British High Commission’s new building - seen here between the two formations - in the Canadian capital. 🇨🇦🇬🇧 📸 Cpl Phil Dye #RedArrowsMapleHawk #RedArrows #Ottawa #Canada #Snowbirds #RCAF #RAF

An excellent programme that speaks to the modernity of the UK-Canada partnership with so much opportunity.
The AI revolution is already rapidly transforming our lives, but we are only just beginning to grasp its full potential. With our similar approaches and values, the 🇬🇧&🇨🇦 are well placed to show 🌎 leadership in both maximizing the benefits and addressing challenges on AI.

It was great hosting @michelledonelan across the @UKinCanada network this week 🇨🇦🇬🇧
"With the same latitude, you have the same attitude" While I may not have persuaded @FP_Champagne about prawn cocktail crisps, I enjoyed discussing our continued collaboration on AI safety and on other shared science and innovation projects 🇬🇧🇨🇦

A game the @Senators prob should have won easily was kept pretty close with the wonder scored with 4 seconds on the clock. Winning goals in ⚽️ with minutes to spare are good but this was pretty great!

Excellent example of 🇬🇧a🇨🇦 science research in the Arctic. Climate change is having a devastating effect with some forecasts indicating Arctic ice will vanish in the summers of the 2030s ❄️ 😔 https://t.co/csnTdZS9IY
