HON. TEODORO L. LOCSIN JR.
Secretary of Foreign Affairs
For Canada Day
[01 July 2020]
The Government of the Philippines and the Filipino people congratulate the Government of Canada and the Canadian people on the 153rd anniversary of Canada’s confederation.
Close to one million Filipinos now call Canada their home. They have been welcomed across Canada’s vast expanse, from the Pacific coast of British Columbia to the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, and into the Arctic region of Nunavut. They continue to fortify the bonds of friendship between the Philippines and Canada.
The Philippines expresses its solidarity with Canada and its people, and looks forward to further deepening its cooperation with Canada, as both countries work together towards addressing global challenges and realizing their shared goals of greater peace and stability for their peoples. END
