Economic cooperation, social development, trade expansion, industrial growth and international security are just some of the issues involved in visits to Canada by foreign dignitaries. These documents also shed light on the difficult aspects of managing the Prime Minister's agenda during official visits to Canada by foreign dignitaries.
