Chief Executive CY Leung met Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre at Government House today.
Mr Leung said Hong Kong and Canada have well-established connections, spanning from business and commerce to social, cultural and human ties, and Hong Kong is home to the largest Canadian community in Asia.
The city will continue to work with Canada to boost trade, economic and cultural relations, he added.
He encouraged more Canadian enterprises to set up business and invest in Hong Kong to capitalise on its super-connector role and explore business opportunities in Asia, particularly in Mainland China.
