‘DESTINATION CANADA’ to welcome Indians in big numbers

Maxime Bernier, Canadian Minister of Tourism, rebranded CTC’s new business operating name to Destination Canada.  Speaking on the opening of Rendez-vous Canada (RVC) 2015 to over 1500 participants he said, “This re-branding of our corporate profile better reflects our business and clearly defines ourselves internationally. Destination Canada is an important milestone for us all as we continue to build on our successes, refresh our vision, and set ourselves up to be even more competitive in the future.”

Chris Alexander, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, said, “Our government is committed to fostering economic and people-to-people ties by making it easier for travellers to come to Canada, whether for business or tourism purposes. Visas are a challenge but we continue to improve the system with eTA for a few countries. The number of countries will increase quickly. eTA will be on a voluntary (testing) basis until March 2016 when it will become mandatory. It would be valid for 5 years.”
