TURKEY WANTS END TO CANADA’S GENOCIDE POLICY

Canadian Government News
April 8, 2013 Monday

Office of the MP Sean Casey., Canadian Government has issued the
following news release:

Turkey’s ambassador to Canada says the Harper government’s decision
to brand the killing of Armenians by Ottoman Turks as genocide may
be hindering a potentially lucrative trading relationship.

Ambassador Tuncay Babali made clear in a wide ranging interview with
The Canadian Press that Canada’s position on the First World War-era
slaughter of an estimated 1.5 million Armenians still carries a sting
for his country.

But that doesn’t mean Turkey doesn’t want to press on with forging
a deeper economic relationship with Canada, ideally a free trade
agreement to compliment the current Canada-EU free trade talks once
they are completed, he said.
