CPAM Canadian Section of ParlAmericas

On 13 November 2020, members of the Canadian Section of ParlAmericas met virtually with officials from Global Affairs Canada (GAC) for a briefing on the political and public health situation in various countries in South America, Central America and the Caribbean. The Canadian Section was represented by Mr. Marc Serré, M.P., Chair of the Canadian Section, Senator Rosa Galvez, Vice-Chair of the Canadian Section and Vice-President (North America) of ParlAmericas' Parliamentary Network on Climate Change (PNCC), Ms. Julie Dzerowicz, M.P., Vice-Chair of the Canadian Section, Ms. Soraya Martinez Ferrada, M.P., Senator Marie-Françoise Mégie and Mr. Simon-Pierre Savard-Tremblay, M.P.

GAC officials provided information about the ways in which various countries in the western hemisphere are managing the challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. They also outlined some of the Government of Canada's trade considerations and international development projects in countries in the hemisphere, and described the ways in which Canada has been applying a "COVID-19 lens" to assess how best to support countries as they address the pandemic while continuing to focus on previously identified priorities in each country, such as advancing the equality of women and men, or enhancing trade.

Officials from GAC and members of the Canadian Section discussed governance, trade, investment and environmental issues, as well as future actions that the Canadian Section could take in engaging with other parliamentarians in the western hemisphere.
