As part of the Government of Canada’s Indo-Pacific Strategy announced earlier this week, $31.8 million was included to establish Canada’s first agriculture office in the region to increase and diversify agriculture and agri-food exports to the Indo-Pacific. The Strategy is outlined in five interconnected strategic objectives -(1) promoting peace, resilience and security, (2) expanding trade, investment and supply-chain resilience, (3) investing in and connecting people, (4) building a sustainable and green future, and (5) ensuring Canada is an active and engaged partner in the Indo-Pacific.
