Quebec National Day Celebration
The Quebec province of Canada celebrated its National Day on June 24, and this tradition is upheld by Quebec offices worldwide. In Mumbai, the office organized a celebratory event, inviting their trade, socio-cultural, and education partners who have facilitated various exchanges. The official ceremony commenced with an address by the director, Mr. Francis Paradis. He announced that starting June 28, 2024, their office would relocate to a new, separate location, having previously operated from the Consulate General of Canada.
Following Mr. Paradis’ speech, Mrs. Manisha Patankar Mhaisker, Principal Secretary and Chief Protocol Officer of Maharashtra, took the stage. She acknowledged and welcomed the move in her speech. The formal proceedings were followed by a lucky draw organized by Air Canada, resulting in two winners receiving business class tickets from Delhi to Montreal. The event concluded with a dinner for all the attendees.
