In his message, he promised to continue working for the defense of democracy, multilateralism, human rights, the protection of the indigenous peoples of the two countries and cooperation for social, inclusive and sustainable development.

Similarly, Peru sent its wishes to the Canadian people on the occasion of its anniversary and underlined the strong bond of friendship that it maintains on the basis of common values.

“Peru salutes the Canadian people and government on the 155th anniversary of Canada Day and underlines the strong bond of friendship based on shared values,” the foreign ministry said.

Trade agreement between Peru and Canada

As recalled, a few days ago the National Superintendence of Customs and Tax Administration (Sunat) and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) signed a Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA), which will promote the program OEA by offering certified companies facilities to carry out foreign trade operations, between the two countries, in an agile and secure way.

The agreement is an important milestone for Peru, as it is the first country in South America to sign an AEO MRA with Canada, which is one of our main trading partners, being the fifth country of destination of our exports, reaching a trade exchange of more than 3,300 million dollars in 2021.
