Simon Harris (Wicklow, Fine Gael)

I am sure he will be delighted to. The Deputy brought President Biden there so why not Prime Minister Carney?

As the Deputy can imagine, we will want that visit to have a legacy, and that legacy has to be based on opportunities to deepen ties. The de Chastelain link is one we are very proud of. I had the honour of meeting that man, who was an incredible individual. The Deputy is right to highlight the people-to-people links and educational links. Let us certainly explore that. I would be happy to work with the Deputy on how we can develop proposals in the education space that we could consider for the next stage of the development of Ireland-Canada relations.
