The players in this sector are major contributors to growth, as well as key assets in rebuilding a stronger, more resilient, greener, and more inclusive economy for all.Through the tourism industry, we can showcase Canadas culture and diversity to visitors from around the world. Thanks to our knowledge on the ground, we have been able to give a helping hand to NPOs, individual workers, joint ventures, and other businesses established based on more current models. In addition to the direct and indirect spinoffs all regions will benefit from, several thousand jobs have been maintained and the supported projects will create several hundred more, ensuring the sector remains vital for the coming seasons.
