KINGSTON, Jamaica – Minister of Tourism, Edmund Bartlett, who is currently in Canada to discuss strategies with the country’s leading stakeholders, to address the decline from that market, says that the meetings have been informative and are expected to yield positive results in the near future.
“In my first term as minister we grew the Canadian market by over 100 percent. Upon returning in March of this year, I became acutely aware that the Canadian market suffered a decline of 6.8 percent last year and there were further declines this year. So these meetings in Canada are a crucial part of our renewed action plan to end the decline and put us firmly on a growth path,” explained Minister Bartlett.
