Thoppil shared Canada's strong commitment to deepening the Bangladesh-Canada trade relationship for the benefit of the people of the two countries.

Appreciating Bangladesh's stable economy and growing market, he expressed Canada's institutional investors' interest in investment in Bangladesh.

The foreign secretary welcomed the decision of the Canadian government to appoint Thoppil as the first Info-Pacific Trade Representative.

Masud Momen hoped that his appointment would facilitate and promote the implementation of Canada's Indo-Pacific Strategy and contribute to the development of the countries of the Indo-Pacific region including Bangladesh.
