Marcelo Ebrard, the Secretary of Economy in Mexico, announced that a significant economic action plan with Canada is set to be defined in the latter half of the year. He emphasized that this strategic plan will be developed through dialogue with a Canadian delegation that will conduct meetings in major Mexican cities including Guadalajara and Monterrey. Key focus areas for this collaboration include the exploration of minerals, infrastructure investments, and enhancing supply chain security.
Ebrard highlighted the importance of this initiative, stating that the objective of the Canadian delegation's visit is to foster private investment and facilitate discussions among approximately 400 companies from both countries. He noted that by nurturing these economic relationships, there is a shared goal to create more job opportunities, particularly for the youth in both Mexico and Canada. The discussions aim to bridge gaps and strengthen ties between the two nations, which is crucial for their economic future.
Additionally, he mentioned that in the near future, there will also be a meeting held in Canada, indicating a reciprocal effort to enhance bilateral relations. This initiative not only underscores the significance of trade cooperation but also reflects both countries' commitment to jointly address challenges and maximize investment potential, thereby benefiting their economic landscapes in the long run.
