Celebrating Canada Day: Recognizing and Fostering Philippine-Canadian Relations at the 75th Canada Day
The relationship between the Philippines and Canada has long been built on a strong foundation of mutual respect, cooperation, and shared values. Both countries have enjoyed decades of robust diplomatic relations, with Canada being one of the Philippines’ most significant partners in terms of trade, investment, and development assistance. Canada has also been instrumental in supporting various developmental projects in the Philippines, focusing on areas such as education, healthcare, and disaster resilience.

Economic ties between the two nations have also flourished over the years. Canada is a key export market for Philippine goods, including electronics, garments, and agricultural products. Conversely, Canadian investments in the Philippines have contributed to the growth of sectors such as mining, energy, and information technology. This reciprocal economic relationship has been beneficial for both countries, fostering job creation, economic stability, and technological advancement.
Cultural exchanges and people-to-people connections further strengthen the bond between the Philippines and Canada. The Filipino diaspora in Canada, one of the largest immigrant communities, plays a vital role in bridging the two nations. Their contributions to Canadian society and economy are well-recognized and celebrated, adding another layer of depth to the bilateral relationship. These multifaceted connections lay a solid groundwork for future collaborations and joint ventures.
This very partnership was commemorated on June 25, 2024, with the Springboard team attending the 75th Canada Day celebration held at the Grand Ballroom of the Grand Hyatt Hotel in BGC, Taguig. The event, which began at 6 pm, was filled with vibrant festivities that lasted well until midnight, showcasing the rich cultural ties, strong diplomatic relations, and rich business relationships between Canada and the Philippines.
The evening kicked off with interactive activities designed to entertain and engage the guests prior to the start of the formalities. One of the highlights was the Great Canadian Sugar Shack, where attendees could indulge in well-known Canadian sweets. In another area, a Hockey Contest was set up, bringing a touch of Canada’s national sport to the celebration. Guests also had the opportunity to savor Canadian cuisine with a food tasting session led by Chef Jeramie Go. Additionally, a virtual tour of Canada allowed everyone to explore the country’s breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cities from the comfort of the ballroom.
Diplomatic Highlights
The celebration was marked by significant speeches from key dignitaries. The Philippines’ Department of Foreign Affairs Undersecretary for Bilateral Relations, Ma Theresa Lazaro, and the Ambassador of Canada to the Philippines, His Excellency David Hartmann, both took the stage to highlight the importance of the relationship between the two nations. They spoke about the strong historical ties, shared values, and the promising future ahead. The speeches underscored the mutual benefits of this partnership and the opportunities it holds for both countries.
Building Business Bridges
The Springboard team had the opportunity to network with various guests throughout the evening, thanks to the invaluable assistance of the Trade Commissioners from the Trade Commission Service of the Embassy of Canada to the Philippines.
