pa Hiel Canada relations?

HONG KONG-CANADA

1.

When the Minister at the Canadian High Commission called on me today, he mentioned, for my ears only and not to be passed on, that there was some thought in Ottawa that the Canadian Prime Minister should pay a visit to Hong Kong. Mr Boehm was not aware of any plan that he should go on to visit China.

2. He said that thinking was at an early stage, partly because there was some uncertainty about the level of the Prime Minister's reception in Hong Kong (ie, was the Governor senior enough? I assured Mr Boehm that he was!), and partly because they were uncertain about the public reception and likely implications for immigration, boat people, etc.
