Ireland's Trade Relationship with Canada: Discussion

Mr. Vivian Doyle-Kelly:

I would really only make one general comment. The fires, however devastating and terrible, are actually a natural phenomenon. It is unfortunate when the winds blow and it has an effect on large population areas.

The head of Export Development Canada is a chartered accountant from Belfast who worked with Short Brothers, came to Canada, became a senior financial person in Bombardier and moved on to become head of Export Development Canada. Export Development Canada is repeating the message everywhere that the success of companies will be rooted in ESGs. That message is very strong, according to what we have been told.
