With Canada being Arizona’s number one international investor and number two destination for exports, and $3.8 billion worth of annual two-way trade, this route will support the more than 1 million people that travel between Canada and Arizona every year for business, tourism, academic and cultural collaboration, along with visits to family and friends.”
