The Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada has launched a new feature on its website to honour the visit to Canada of the Emperor and Empress of Japan. The visit marks the 80th anniversary of the opening of formal diplomatic relations between the Pacific partners. The Foundation invited a number of Canadians involved in Canada-Japan ties to share their thoughts on aspects of the history and importance of the bilateral relationship. The special feature on the Imperial visit can be found at: http://www.asiapacific.ca/en/http/wwwasiapacificca/emperor.
