Lauding collaboration between Vietnam and Quebec in recent year, especially in trade and education – training, Phuc suggested Quebec continue granting scholarships for Vietnamese students, supporting Vietnam’s participation in projects on climate change response, economics, and education within the framework of the International Organization of La Francophonie. PM Phuc asked Quebec’s authorities to facilitate the involvement of Vietnamese expatriates here in the local development and bilateral ties between Vietnam and Canada.  

For his part, Premier Philippe Couillard welcomed the Vietnamese high-ranking delegation’s attendance at the Group of Seven (G7) Outreach Summit and visit to Canada.

He pledged to create best conditions possible for Vietnamese expatriates to make contributions to bilateral relations. Philippe Couillard requested Vietnam consider Quebec’s proposal to set up a representative office in the country.

PM Phuc took the occasion to invite the Quebec Premier to visit Vietnam, which was accepted.  

After their meeting, the leaders  witnessed the signing of a joint statement on tertiary education between Vietnam’s Ministry of Education and Training and Quebec’s Ministry of Education and Higher Education.
