“One of the things I’ve heard said about Canada is that, from a cultural standpoint, it’s much less forthcoming in letting people know that it’s there,” he said. He was of the view that the city is not assertive enough and could actually do with a lot of publicity. The city actually needs to emphasize that it is there, it has a very different political landscape and it is open for business.
