On September 10, 2026, Canada's Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Tim Hodgson and the First Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine, Minister of Energy of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal met to discuss bilateral cooperation in the energy sector and opportunities to strengthen the long-standing partnership between Canada and Ukraine.

The Ministers confirm the strong friendship between Canada and Ukraine and condemn Russia's ongoing attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure. They reaffirm their commitment to continued collaboration between the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine and Natural Resources Canada in support of Ukraine's energy security, resilience, recovery, and reconstruction, building on the Memorandum of Understanding signed in February 2026.

The Ministers emphasize the importance of secure, reliable, affordable, and diversified energy systems in supporting economic growth, energy security, and long-term prosperity. They recognize that stronger Canada-Ukraine energy cooperation can support Ukraine's recovery while creating opportunities for collaboration among governments, industry, researchers, investors, and other stakeholders. This discussion builds upon the goals of the broader leader’s visit of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Prime Minister Mark Carney.

They underscore the continued importance of donor contributions through the Ukraine Energy Support Fund and other multilateral platforms to address urgent operational needs, and welcome Canada’s latest contribution of $10 million to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund, bringing Canada’s total contribution to $100 million.
