I applaud your Association for raising awareness among your members of their responsibilities when it comes to marketing products and services to Canadians. It says a lot that you made time in your conference agenda to focus on the need to comply with CRTC rules and regulations to protect consumers. Kudos to you for providing this opportunity to explain how you can avoid problems when you do.
It’s a privilege to be joined on this trip by such an impressive delegation of Canadian business, government and Indigenous leaders. Their presence reflects the importance of partnerships in developing Canada’s abundant natural resources. My thanks to all of you for being here.
It’s certainly appropriate that we meet tonight in a room named for Alvin Hamilton because, as Canada’s Minister of Agriculture in the 1960’s, he pioneered the sale of wheat to China.
He saw the potential for our two countries to do more. To go further. And to break new ground. Tonight, I want to do the same in the area of natural resources.
I’m delighted to be here with you today, and I want to recognize of course my colleague Bill Morneau and my colleague Randy Boissonnault who are here with us today but also all of you.

I believe in the Canada Infrastructure Bank.
I believe it has the potential to create good middle class jobs, improve quality of life in our communities and contribute to a thriving economy—and it's why I'm here today to answer any questions you may have.
