During her January 28 visit to lakeside Canadian Ambassador Sara Hradecky stopped by Lake Chapala Society headquarters to commemorate 90 years of cordial Canada-Mexico diplomatic relations.
After joining LCS President Ben White, Ajijic Administrator Héctor España and Guadalajara Consul-Trade Commissioner Francis Miguel Uy in a champagne toast to mark the occasion, the ambassador presided over the planting of a maple tree sapling that will take root as living symbol of friendly ties between the two nations.
Hradecky and her staff started their busy tour agenda at Chapala’s Centro Cultural González Gallo to offer information on travel, study and doing business in Canada to Mexican citizens, wrapping up the day with an appearance at the monthly gathering of the Canadian Club of Lake Chapala.
