  • Bilateral Visit to Pakistan -- Islamabad, Pakistan -- Canadian
    Report of the Canadian Parliamentary Delegation respecting its participation to a Bilateral Visit to Pakistan Canadian Branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (CPA) Islamabad, Pakistan March 31 to April 8, 2018 Report Introduction A delegation of the Canadian Branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (CPA) conducted a bilateral visit to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan from 31 March to 8 April 2018. The delegation was led by the Chair of the association, Yasmin Ratansi, Member of Parliament. Other members of the delegation included the Honourable Salma Ataullahjan, Senator; the Honourable Diane Griffin, Senator; Terry Duguid, Member of Parliament; Ramesh Sangha, Member of Parliament; Robert Kitchen, Member of Parliament and Murray Rankin, Member of Parliament. The delegation was assisted by Rémi Bourgault, Association Secretary and Jean-Philippe Duguay, Analyst. It should be noted that this was the first time in many years that such a high-profile delegation had been to Pakistan. The purpose of this visit by CPA was three-fold: firstly, to engage with parliamentarians from Pakistan and to strengthen Canada and Pakistan’s relationship, by visiting Islamabad, the political capital. Secondly to visit the commercial capital Karachi and gauge the prospect of enhancing trade with Pakistan. Thirdly to visit the cultural capital Lahore to see how Canada and Pakistan could enhance their cultural landscape. Due to security concerns, the visit was ultimately limited to Islamabad. This report therefore deals with the various meetings the delegates held on areas of mutual interest, including: meetings with the Prime Minister and other high-ranking ministers and officials, CPA counterparts, human rights groups, developmental agencies, climate change experts, experts on regional security and defense, academics and Canadian entrepreneurs doing business in Pakistan.
