By videoconference - Canada-France Interparliamentary Association (CAFR)
To begin, the Chair of CAFR, Marie-France Lalonde, M.P., spoke with Ms. Isabelle Hudon, Canadian Ambassador to France. They discussed the CAFR’s priorities and potential topics of interest that members could address in the context of future CAFR activities.
The Executive Committee members then joined the meeting to take part in a briefing given by Ms. Josiane Simon, Minister-Counsellor (Economic and Commercial Affairs) at the Canadian Embassy in France. In addition to Ms. Lalonde, the CAFR was represented by its vice-chairs, Senator René Cormier and Mr. Jacques Gourde, M.P., as well as Senator Jean-Guy Dagenais, Ms. Caroline Desbiens, M.P., and Mr. Fayçal El-Khoury, M.P.
The Minister-Counsellor provided information on the economic relationship between Canada and France and statistics on trade between the two countries in recent years for various industry sectors. She noted some of the industry sectors that have shown significant growth and those that have experienced some decline, and highlighted priority sectors for the Embassy’s Trade Commissioner Service team. She further noted some of the positive impacts of the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) on trade between the two countries and provided an overview of French investment in Canada and Canadian investment in France. Ambassador Hudon offered some additional remarks on the topics raised, including on the assistance provided to the cultural industry. Members also briefly discussed topics that CAFR could address in future activities.

By videoconference

The Ambassador began by providing an overview of the relationship between Canada and France, noting that the relationship is excellent, but that trade between the two countries could be increased. The Ambassador went on to discuss the COVID-19 situation in France and the measures taken by the French government to contain the health crisis and stimulate the economy. Members of the Executive were given the opportunity to ask questions. The discussion then moved on to the role the digital sector will play in France’s economic revitalization plan, as well as possible areas of collaboration between France and Canada in this regard. Other topics of discussion were the French tax on digital companies, the French presidential election coming up in 2022, domestic and international terrorism, France’s relationship with China and ideas for potential partnerships between different regions of France and Canada. Lastly, the issue of protectionism as it relates to the Canada–European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) and vaccine supply was raised.
