The legislators met with members of the Parliament, the Ministry of Justice and a number of agencies in Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto to share their experiences in a range of issues related to legislation. 

During the visit within the framework of the Canada-funded Policy Implementation Assistance Project (PIAP), the Vietnamese delegation was also received by the Speaker from the House of Commons Peter Milliken and the Canada-Vietnam Friendship Parliamentarians League. 

At these meetings, the host country’s officials spoke highly of Vietnam’s achievements in its socio-economic development and international integration. They noted with pleasure that the traditional friendship and cooperation between Canada and Vietnam as well as between the two legislatures have developed well. 

Both parties hoped to step up exchanges, mutual visits and the sharing of information and operation experiences between the two legislative bodies. The Vietnamese lawmakers said that the technical assistance provided by Canada has contributed a great deal to Vietnam’s legal and judicial reforms which will help the country in its efforts to create an advanced legal system.
