From the introduction by the President of COL: "It gives me great pleasure to formally welcome, for the first time at COL, a Minister of International Cooperation. It is perhaps appropriate that the visit is happening this year, when COL celebrates its 25th anniversary. Thank you, Minister for your time and for your interest in our work. "We are very grateful to the Government of Canada for its continued financial and intellectual support. We also appreciate the fact that we are hosted in beautiful British Columbia, which sparkles on a day like this." Professor Asha Kanwar President & C.E.O. Commonwealth of Learning
