Mr. Speaker, next September, the Prime Minister will leave on a trade mission with Team Canada to promote Canada's economic interests in Australia and Japan.
The mission will focus on seven sectors identified as priorities by our government: aerospace, energy and natural resources, agriculture and food biotechnology, health care, telecommunications and information technologies and, finally, education and the environment.
This fourth trip to the Asia-Pacific region speaks to Team Canada's interest in developing trade ties in the area.
It is one specific way in which the government can promote the professionalism and know-how of Canadians and Quebeckers.
