The @ottawacity taking down #tennis nets in the midst of a #pandemic when it's 20 degrees out in November is a surprising display of disconnectedness. Why not just wait a week ya jerks?

It's true that tone is set from the top and luckily for @ExportDevCanada, @Mairead_Lavery's passion for #trade and commitment to helping Canadian companies is as infectious as it gets. See for yourself! #chatterthatmatters @RBC @TonyChapman youtube.com/watch?v=YIcwfHK8…

Canadians are kinda like the dwarves from Lord of the rings, very beardy and unmatched in the art of #Mining. The world needs that expertise (though not so much the beards), especially in Chile, as you'll learn in this 'Meet a Buyer' series. Check it out! #Export

Following WWII, Canada needed to jump start #trade and restore that central piece of our economy. 3 air force vets and one dedicated CEO were entrusted to carry out this vital mission. 75 years later, @ExportDevCanada remains true to its roots - HBD, EDC edc.ca/en/article/edc-histor…
