Embassy of Canada to Denmark

Congratulations National Canadian Film Day for another spectacular celebration of Canadian film. Coast to coast to coast and around the world. 2000+ screenings. 150+ special guests. Tens of thousands of audience members. Hundreds of Canadian communities and 49 countries.

Here in Copenhagen we were thrilled to screen ‘Grizzlies’ and to have the director Miranda de Pencier join us for a truly poignant conversation about the challenges making the film which is based on the true story of an Inuit community in Canada’s north. De Pencier is also the executive producer of the successful CBC /Netflix series North of North, which has found a broad international audience especially in Greenland.

Great win for the Danes! An honour as Ambassadors for the FIFA host countries to be hosted by the Danish Football Association at this truly important step en route to FIFA in the Americas!

Celebrating La Francophonie and Canada’s commitment to bilingualism! 🇨🇦

Professor Jean‑François Godbout from University of Montreal joined us for a French‑language AI panel at Copenhagen Business School, sharing his research & evidence-based insights on AI’s impact on society.

He was joined by Emilia Tantar, Head of Luxembourg Cybersecurity Factory, and Alexandre Alapetite, Principal Software Solutions Architect at the Alexandra Institute in Copenhagen. Moderated by Tanneguy Salavert, a student at CBS, and organized in partnership with the Embassy of Luxembourg. Inspiring night! 🤖✨

Flashback to a truly memorable visit from Canada 🇨🇦🇩🇰 We just received these wonderful photos from a magical evening at the Copenhagen Light Festival, where architect and light designer Jesper Ravn guided Her Excellency the Right Honourable Mary Simon, Governor General of Canada, His Excellency Whit Fraser, Ambassador Bennett and Peter O’Brian through a snow-covered, color-soaked Copenhagen ❄️🌈

Ahead of International Women’s Day, Ambassador Bennett attended the 2026 Gender Diversity Roundtable at UN City, alongside members of the Copenhagen diplomat community. A gathering focused on advancing inclusion and access to justice across sectors.

The event brought together leaders, experts, and advocates to explore how equal access to opportunities and everyday inclusive leadership can accelerate progress toward gender equality. It was an inspiring forum with thoughtful reflections from UN Women, Boston Consulting Group (BCG), Nordic private‑sector leaders, and public-sector voices such as Ministry of Finance of Denmark.

Inspiring remarks on inclusive leadership — the kind of leadership embodied by UN leaders like Dr. Hans Kluge, Regional Director for Europe at the World Health Organization. While visiting the UN City Copenhagen, Ambassador Bennett met Dr. Kluge, who marked International Women’s Day with a simple but powerful gesture: offering roses to women colleagues and visitors in recognition of their contributions.

Happy International Women's Day!

Four years have passed since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Ambassador Bennett attended a memorial service to honour Ukraine, in the presence of His Majesty King Frederik X and Her Majesty Queen Mary.

Speeches by speaker of the Danish Parliament Søren Gade and Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen highlighted Denmark's unwavering support for Ukraine and its people.

The windows at the embassy are lit up to mark that Canada stands with Ukraine.

At the , Minister Anand participated in a panel on Arctic sovereignty and security, alongside Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen, and U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski. They discussed the region’s growing strategic importance and the need for strong cooperation among Arctic partners.

The flag at the Embassy is flying at half‑mast today to mark the tragic events in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia. Our prayers and deepest condolences are with families and friends who have lost loved ones to these horrific acts of violence. The Government of Canada stands with all British Columbians as they confront this horrible tragedy.
