Ireland's Trade Relationship with Canada: Discussion

Dr. Deirdre Giblin:

Maybe I will start off the replies and we will bounce it around then. The previous Minister of Environment and Climate Change in Canada, Catherine McKenna, who is a great friend to Ireland, has done significant work on climate change. There have been many conversations between our two governments with Catherine McKenna at the time when she was Minister as part of that. Perhaps I will bounce over now to our Canadian-based colleagues to speak on the climate change discussion in Canada.
