Canada should conclude free trade agreement with Morocco, senator

Canada should conclude a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with Morocco as the United States did this year, suggested a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee at the Canadian Senate.

Speaking during a debate on Africa, Sen. Consiglio Di Nino, insisted that the Canadian government should conclude such an agreement with the North African country. Taking the floor, Morocco's ambassador to Ottawa, Mohamed Tangi, highlighted the timeliness of setting up a "triangular approach" within which Morocco would act as intermediary between Canada and African states. He recalled that the kingdom plays a similar role with a number of UN organisms.
