Join the Canadian Chamber in Tokyo and Osaka for a strategic dialogue to advance the Canada–Japan economic partnership and unlock new opportunities for bilateral collaboration in an evolving global landscape.
Coinciding with the Japan-Canada Chambers Council (JCCC) 2026 Annual Meeting on September 30, this mission will convene senior Canadian and Japanese business leaders at a pivotal moment for Indo-Pacific economic cooperation.
Building on the Canada–Japan Comprehensive Strategic Partnership announced by Mark Carney and Sanae Takaichi in March 2026, this mission aligns directly with a renewed bilateral framework focused on economic security, resilient supply chains, clean energy, advanced technologies, and defence collaboration. The partnership elevates Canada–Japan relations into a comprehensive strategic framework, emphasizing co-operation across critical minerals, artificial intelligence, battery supply chains, and emerging industries shaping the future economy.
This mission will provide delegates with a platform to engage directly with Japanese policymakers, industry associations, and business leaders while contributing to discussions on shared priorities such as energy security, supply chain resilience, food security, and innovation-driven growth. It will also highlight new commercial opportunities emerging from strengthened bilateral coordination and increased investment flows between two of the world’s most advanced economies.
Most importantly, this visit will position participants at the forefront of Canada’s expanding Indo-Pacific strategy—deepening commercial ties, strengthening partnerships, and enabling Canadian businesses to play a leading role in shaping the next chapter of the Canada–Japan relationship.
