Meetings between the Croatian delegation and Canadian
businesspeople and politicians were excellently organised by the
Canadian-Croatian Congress and the Croatian Embassy in Ottawa,
Peronja said.
A return visit of Canadian businesspeople is expected to take
place in June. During the talks, Canadian businesspeople were most
interested in the reconstruction of roads and hotels, the
construction of an airport on the island of Brac and cheap
construction the Canadians are famous for.
The Dalmatian prefect Peronja had numerous meetings with
Croatian emigrants and some of them inquired about conditions of
the return to Croatia. In Ottawa, the Croatian delegation met
Graham Bird, Canadian Government official in the Committee for
investment in Central and East Europe. Canada's participation in
the reconstruction of Croatia was the main topic of the talks
between the Croatian delegation and Mr Bird.
