Temporary Deputy Speaker, we have had diplomatic relations with the Government of Canada for a long time and it is sad that, to date, we do not have direct air communications between Kenya and Canada. I believe this Bilateral Agreement will be very crucial so that we can have direct links with countries like Canada, where we have a lot of business and students learning in various institutions. I also believe that we already have Kenya Airways flying into Angola and Mozambique. It is important that we have a bilateral agreement so that our airline can get the appropriate services and attention when it is necessary."}
