Delegations from Caribbean Community (CARICOM) member countries and Canada last week seized the opportunity afforded by their being in Washington, simultaneously, to participate in the General Assembly of the Organization of American States (OAS) to engage in discourse on matters relating to the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and Canada. In providing assurances that relations between the Caribbean and Canada remained on ‘even keel,’ the two delegations issued a Joint Communique alluding to what they described as the “enduring value of the deep and dynamic partnership” and their particular mutual interest in “strengthening their commitment to sustainability, resilience, climate action, access to finance, regional security, and shared values.”
