Welcome to the electronic gateway to trade and investment relations with Russia! My country is widely seen as one of the most promising markets in the world given its size, rapid growth of macroeconomic indicators, commitment of its leadership to economic reform, deep integration into the world economy based on liberal trade regime and WTO accession. We at the Trade Representation of the Russian Federation in Canada strongly believe that Canadian consumers, investors and government can benefit a lot from Made in Russia goods, services and capitals. And vise versa, Made in Canada is widely considered across Russian industries as an appropriate, demand-driven, reliable factor of their own competitiveness. But more importantly, people on both sides of the Arctic ocean (and beyond) do realize that by combining their efforts, their – frequently similar – life experience, based in particular on common nature and climate, they can achieve much more worldwide.  So the era of joint ventures and long-term partnerships is coming! Should it be agrifood, mining, energy, aircraft, car industry, transportation, construction or IT development, such combination of our advantages will not only make us economically more successful, but bring us closer to each other despite of the distance, not only mutually enrich our cultures, but also create a wide area of stability and future prosperity in this part of the world. We hope your navigation through our electronic space proves to be useful and are prepared to provide you with any further advise how to do business with Russia. Have a great time!
