Canada has provided over $4 billion of international assistance to Bangladesh since 1972. However, with the growing economic capacity of Bangladesh, especially under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in the last one and a half decades, development assistance is no longer the defining factor of our bilateral relations. Our relationship is now multidimensional and encompasses trade, investment, development partnerships, education, and people-to-people contact. Trade between the two countries now stands at its highest level in history. Similarly, our export to Canada also stands at its highest, at $2.02 billion at the end of 2022, an increase of almost 72% over the last two years.
A Canada-Bangladesh Parliamentary Friendship Group has been established to work and interact with the similar Group in the Bangladesh Parliament, to contribute from policy perspectives for overall promotion of bilateral relations between the two countries. The Group would soon visit Bangladesh to meet their counterpart.
