PRIVATE AND ENCRYPTED​

To: Kristopher Reensma From: Minister John Manley Dearest Minister Reensma, I hope this message reaches you well, my name is John Manley, the Minister of Global Affairs for Canada. It is my pleasure to be the one to reach out to you and open diplomatic dialogue between my nation and the Kingdom of Belgium. The policy of the re-elected Canadian government is to reach out globally and form friendships and connections with the nations of the Earth. I believe that Canada and Belgium will be able to reach such a relationship relatively easily regarding out various common traits: our two nations have official bilingualism, French being one of out two languages, alongside having a similar type of government. It is my hopes that with your reply we will be able to discuss various things to move our relationship forward such as trade, tourism, and perhaps even an in-person visit between the two of us or other members of our governments. Kindest Regards, John Manley Minister of Foreign Affairs Canada

Dear Minister (@Alex ), Manley I'd like to begin by thank you for establishing contact with me as early as you did. Its certainly a pleasure, furthermore I'd like to congradulate your country's government on having obtained power in Canada via free and fair elections.


It is likewise, the policy and practice of The Kingdom of Belgium to secure a future for its inhabitants and one of the many ways of accomplishing this objective is by coming to terms with the notion of interdependency and reconciling it with national sovereignty as well as non alignment.

Belgium sees in Canada a mirror image of itself not merely because of our bilingualism but also in our commitment to the rule of law and peace among the nations of this world.

I am open to further discussion of trade, tourism, and a state visit whenever times permits




Regards, Kristopher Reensma
