YOUR TELNO 002 TO HONGKONG AND HONG KONG TELNO 003 TO OTTAWA : SIR D WILSON'S VISIT TO CANADA
1.
I DO NOT THINK THAT THERE ARE ANY PARTICULAR BRITISH GOVERNMENT SENSITIVITIES ABOUT THE WAY IN WHICH THE GOVERNOR'S VISIT IS HANDLED. OUR MAIN CONCERN IS THAT THE VISIT SHOULD HAVE A FAVOURABLE IMPACT ON CANADIAN GOVERNMENT POLICIES, AND ON CANADIAN OPINION MORE GENERALLY. WE SHOULD BE HAPPY WITH WHATEVER ARRANGEMENTS SEEM MOST LIKELY TO PROMOTE THOSE OBJECTIVES. DAVID WILSON'S SLIGHTLY MODIFIED VERSION OF YOUR MODEL 2 APPROACH SEEMS FINE FROM THAT POINT OF VIEW.
