Canada and Indiana: Partners in Trade, Security, Energy and More February 24, 2012

Roy Norton, Consul General of Canada in Indiana, will discuss why Hoosiers export more to Canada than they do to their next seven largest export markets combined. He will also detail vital issues such as North American and world security; Canada as the largest supplier of energy to the US; and shared management of the environment, particularly the Great Lakes.

As the Consul General of Canada based in Detroit, Roy Norton represents Canada in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky. The Canadian Consulate General, which he heads, promotes Canadian interests - trade, investment, the environment, culture and academic relations being among the principal ones. The office also provides consular, passport, visa and immigration services.

This event will be held in Woodburn Hall Room 120. It is presented by the Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce, Indiana University Center for International Business Education and Research, and the IU Department of Political Science.
