What They Are Saying
Here are quotes from Canadian business leaders at the 6th China Canada Business Forum on Friday in Montreal, where Premier Li gave a speech.
"We're extremely pleased to receive the approval by The People's Bank of China (to issue yuan-denominated bonds in China's interbank bond market). It's very beneficial for both countries with Premier Li coming to Canada and Premier Minister Justin Trudeau visiting China three weeks ago."
Vincent Joli-coeur, vice-chairman of Investing Bnak, National Bank of Canada
"The premier's speech is a very strong signal for setting up the free trade relationship. I expected that over the next year, more Canadian companies will go to China, more Chinese companies will come here with the new direct flight from Montreal to Shanghai that was announced today."
Michel Leblanc, president and CEO of the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal
"I am excited to see the Premier Li's coming back to visit Canada after Prime Minster visiting China. China is the second largest trading partner of Canada. If the American looks down Canada, China will treat Canada well. It's very important for Canada and China to be good friends."
Philip S. Lee, the former Lieutenant Governor of Manitoba
"Canada needs to take advantage of middle-class growth in China,"
Sarah Kutulakos, executive director of the Canada China Business Council (CCBC)
