The Commissioner spoke about the economic relations between Canada and the European Union, the importance of close cooperation and development between industry and universities, investment opportunities in Canada, and Canadian representation in Europe. Also covered was the current round of negotiations between Canada and the European Union about the development of a free trade agreement.
