Meeting between Ambassador Monji and Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne
On September 22, Ambassador Monji met with Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne at the Embassy of Japan in Ottawa, on the occasion of her visit to Ottawa. This is the second meeting between them as Ambassador Monji had a chance to meet with Premier Wynne in May 2015 during his official visit to the Province of Ontario.
During the meeting of about 30 minutes, they discussed the Japan-Canada relationship that Prime Minister Abe and Prime Minister Trudeau describe as a “new era for cooperation between Japan and Canada”. Keeping in mind Premier Wynne’s visit to Japan, scheduled for this fall, Ambassador Monji and Premier Wynne also exchanged their views on topics such as cooperation between Japan and Ontario in the areas of politics, economy and tourism.
