The 2012 Australia-Canada Economic Leadership Forum was a great success!
This summit of private and public sector leaders from both countries was
initially launched in 2010 in Sydney, Australia.
The goal of the Forums are to foster high level and frank exchanges on
issues and challenges of mutual interest to Australia and Canada - partners
and allies who share common historical roots and values, among them, respect
for freedom and the rule of law, and the advancement of international peace
and security.
The 2012 Forum, Co-Chaired by The Honourable Mike Rann and Mr. Thomas
d'Aquino, addressed a wide variety of subjects that are top of mind in both
countries: competitiveness and international trade priorities; approaches to
global economic recovery following a devastating economic and financial
crisis; responses to immense opportunities and transformational change in
the Asia-Pacific region; and leading edge policies for harnessing
technological change.
It is often said that there are no two countries more alike than Australia
and Canada and yet our relationship is marked by a great deal of unfulfilled
potential. Given that Australia and Canada are blessed with an abundance of
natural resources, the Forum addressed topical issues such as global food
policy, the supply of minerals and energy in a resource constrained world
and the regulation of foreign investment.
Our corporate sponsors included: Macquarie Group; Viterra Inc.; BHP
Billiton; Brookfield; Barrick; Rio Tinto Alcan; Air Canada; ATCO Group;
Bombardier; SNC-Lavalin; Norton Rose; Cameco; Stikeman Elliott; Paladin
Energy; TMX Group and Transfield Services. Our government sponsors include
the Australian and Canadian Governments and Export Development Canada.
