Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Minister, welcome to our committee.
I also want to change the dial. I appreciate those remarks on Turkey, but I wanted to take us over to China.
You mentioned China, and our relationship with China is certainly a very important one. You've recently been to China yourself, and I understand that many of our ministers have been there also. In fact, I think there have been as many 16 ministerial visits in the last short while. I think we've opened about six new offices in China, and even three in India, as you mentioned in your remarks.
Would you comment on the objectives and the results of your recent Canadian high-level visit to China, and the importance of that to the Canada-China relationship?
