Speech at the Chartered Professional Accountants Canada's The ONE National Conference 2017

| Department of Finance Canada | speeches

I want to thank Joy Thomas, President and CEO of CPA Canada, and Johanne Charbonneau, the Chair of CPA Ontario, for the welcome. It was important for me to be here to hear from you, and to listen. This is a consultation, after all, and I know there are opinions, ideas and insights in this room that will help us get it right.

If you have a United States visa and you're travelling from certain parts of Asia and you're going through Vancouver, then we will not ask you to obtain a Canadian visa. Through that, I was able to interact with the folks here, to learn about the potential of that traffic to dramatically expand Vancouver Airport and create real economic benefits for the region.

I want to recognize that we are meeting on the traditional territory of the Algonquin people. Long before there was a lumber industry in a place called Bytown, the Algonquin lived in - and were part of - the forests of this region.
