I’D LIKE to start with a personal reflection.When I first arrived in Trinidad and Tobago as Canada’s High Commissioner, I expected to spend my first few months introducing Canada to this country. Instead, I quickly found out there was no need.
Everywhere I went, someone had a Canadian story. A son studying in Toronto. A daughter living in Calgary. A business partner in Mississauga. A favourite vacation they took in Nova Scotia. A cousin in Brampton. I learned of how St Catherines was twinned long ago with Port of Spain; how the Ontario Legislature is twinned with the Red House and its House of Representatives.
