President Aquino met with Liberal Party leader, Justin Trudeau during his visit in Ottawa.
Justin Trudeau on his meeting with the President of the Philippines. More than 700,000 Canadians tracing their heritage to the Philippines, our countries share strong and enduring cultural links. I have been fortunate to attend many events with Filipino-Canadians, and I always admire their warmth, their ingenuity, and their strong family bonds. We are extremely proud that Filipinos have chosen to come to Canada, share their culture and traditions, and embrace the uniquely Canadian view of liberty through inclusive diversity. Canada is stronger not in spite of its differences, but precisely because of them.
“I look forward to continued deepening ties with the Filipino-Canadian community, and between our two countries.”
