Declaring that these are “unprecedented times for Guyana”, outgoing Canadian High Commissioner, Mark Berman said that its economic growth and transformation is unmatched and he restated Ottawa’s support for this country in its border controversy with Venezuela.
“It is a privilege to be able to witness and take part in this historical moment. Your government, Mr. President, continues to work with energy and relentlessness and your pace is impressive. And we often continue to struggle to keep up!”, he told the Canada Day event on Thursday at the Pegasus Suites and Corporate Centre where he also announced that the Canadian High Commission will now be located on the 6th floor of the building.
Warning that democracy, human rights and the rule of law continue to be under threat from authoritarian regimes around the world, Berman said that Canada will continue to play a key role in helping to build a safer and more prosperous world.
