Mélanie Joly pushes LNG ties in Japan and South Korea, amid North Korea missilesOTTAWA — Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says Canada is set to become a major energy supplier for Japan and South Korea. "We will become a major supplier of key energy for them, starting in 2025," Joly said in a Thursday interview from Seoul. Joly said a series of missiles that North Korea launched over Japan this month loomed large in her talks with local officials and the Canadian navy. She visited HMCS Vancouver, which is undertaking exercises to monitor sanctions on North Korea "in view of their reckless actions," Joly said. In Tokyo, she co-launched formal talks aimed at having Canada and Japan share military intelligence.
