Welcome to the High Commission of Canada to Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean!

It is my honour and privilege to represent Canada in the Caribbean, a region with which we share innumerable personal and professional connections that are longstanding, vibrant and thriving. I arrive in Bridgetown eager to learn more about this diverse region, its people and cultures, to build on the efforts of my predecessors, and to advance the Canada-CARICOM Strategic Partnership.

The High Commission of Canada in Barbados is responsible for the bilateral relationships with seven independent nations—Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. It also engages with the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States. It oversees some aspects of Canada’s relations with three British Overseas Territories—Anguilla, Montserrat, and the British Virgin Islands. Consular services for Canadian citizens extend to include Sint Maarten, Sint Eustatius and Saba, and the extends to Martinique and Guadeloupe. Canadians visiting or living in the region are encouraged to to receive the latest country-specific advice.

Canada has longstanding relationships with Barbados and the countries of the Eastern Caribbean as members of the Organization of American States, the Commonwealth and—in the case of Dominica and Saint Lucia—La Francophonie. We maintain enduring relationships based on a shared commitment to democracy, the rules-based international order, and respect for human rights. We share a collective commitment to advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and achieving Agenda 2030.

Our substantial cooperation is built on many shared values and interests. As High Commissioner, I will work diligently to advance our common priorities including fostering inclusive societies, building sustainable economies that work for all, bolstering regional security, and supporting climate resilience. Canada stands firmly with our Caribbean neighbours as we navigate and address the complex geopolitical, security, and environmental issues before our global community and chart the path forward for a more secure, resilient, equitable and prosperous future.

While I am new to the Caribbean, I bring with me considerable hemispheric experience having served in Mexico, Colombia, Chile and the United States in various international business development and trade policy roles over the course of my 20-year career with 抖淫视频. I look forward to working with our dedicated team in Bridgetown as we serve Canadians and engage with the peoples and the governments of Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean to strengthen Canada’s bilateral, regional and multilateral relationships in the years ahead.

I invite you to explore this website and to follow us on social media to learn more about Canada’s engagement in Barbados and across the Eastern Caribbean.

Thank you.
