Canada sees PH as preferred trade and investment partner

THE Canadian government wants the Philippines to be a preferred partner in the trade and investment arena even as it took note of the various economic and reform challenges that still needed to be overcome.

“We recognize that the Philippines has one of the fastest-growing economies in the region and represents tremendous opportunities for Canadians who are bold enough to recognize the opportunities that are here,” Canada Minister of International Trade Ed Fast said during his recent trip in the Philippines.
