Kananaskis Golf Course Readies for G7 Summit with Possible Trump Tee-Off

Security barriers will seal off the course under tight restrictions ahead of unscheduled leader activities

Overview

  • The Kananaskis Country Golf Club will host G7 leaders from June 15 to 17 and is enclosed within a tightly controlled perimeter closed to public access.
  • The venue last welcomed world leaders in 2002 for the G8 summit when figures such as George Bush and Jean Chrétien played golf and ran on the grounds.
  • Official summit sessions will be held at the nearby Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge, positioning the course as one of two primary recreational sites.
  • President Donald Trump, who owns club merchandise gifted by Mark Carney, could tee off informally despite the summit itinerary remaining undisclosed.
  • Any visits to the course are expected to be spontaneous, reflecting the unscripted nature of past world-leader outings.
