The Federal Deputy of the constituency Bourassa, Quebec, Emmanuel Dubourg, of Haitian origin, recently paid an official visit to the Embassy of Haiti in Ottawa (Canada), where he was received by the Ambassador of Haiti Frantz Liautaud and staff of the mission.

During their interview the former Liberal deputy for Viau [elected in 2008 and 2012], expressed in particular his desire to contribute as effectively as possible within its sphere of action to strengthen the traditional ties of friendship and cooperation effective between Canada and Haiti, his country of origin. He also expressed an equal interest with respect to its relations with the Haitian community living in Canada.

Ambassador Liautaud thanked Emmanuel Dubourg for his courtesy and good arrangements in the place of Haiti and the Haitian community in Canada. At the end of their meeting, the Ambassador of Haiti hoped that, like the Deputy Dubourg [elected November 25, 2013] more compatriots get involved in Canadian politics for the benefit of both countries.

It should be noted that the Honourable Emmanuel Dubourg served first in the National Assembly of Quebec as deputy of Viau, before being recently elected to the federal level.
