After a fireside chat with Flavio Volpe, President of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers’ Association (APMA) at the 71st APMA Annual Conference on September 26, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau walked the floor of the Canadian Manufacturing Technology Show (CMTS).
The Prime Minister toured through the exhibits at the Toronto Congress Centre for CMTS where he stopped to talk with members of the manufacturing community about their innovations.
“Canada’s workers are some of the best in the world,” the Prime Minister’s Office shared in social posts following the event tour. “They are dedicated, innovative, and passionate about what they do – all of that was on display today in Toronto. To those we spent time with: Thanks for showing us around, and thanks for sharing your talents with Canadians.”
CMTS is presented by SME, with strategic event partners including Canadian Machine Tool Distributors’ Association (CMTDA), Canadian Tooling and Machining Association (CTMA), CWB-EWI Group, and Automotive Parts Manufacturer’s Association (APMA).
“The future of Canadian manufacturing is incredibly exciting,” said Julie Pike, senior director, event strategy, SME, who accompanied the Prime Minister on the tour. “We’re seeing particular vibrancy in areas such as aerospace, automotive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, robotics, additive manufacturing (3D printing), and sustainable practices, and the latest breakthroughs in each of these areas are on full display on the show floor.”
