The Chief Executive, Mr C Y Leung, met the visiting Premier of Ontario of Canada, Ms Kathleen Wynne, at Government House this afternoon (November 10) to exchange views on issues of mutual concern.
Mr Leung welcomed Ms Wynne, who is leading a business and technology delegation to Hong Kong. He said that Hong Kong, as an international financial and trade centre, could assist Ontario companies in expanding businesses in the region through its global business connections and talents.
Mr Leung said he hoped that more Canadian enterprises would establish a presence in Hong Kong and unlock more business opportunities by leveraging on the city's huge development potential in the country's "Belt and Road" initiative and Hong Kong's role as a "super-connector".
