Ed Fast, Minister of International Trade, announced that the Canada-Honduras Economic Growth and Prosperity Act—an act to implement the Canada-Honduras Free Trade Agreement and parallel agreements on labour and environmental cooperation—has received Royal Assent. Canada will now work with Honduras for a coming into force of the agreement as quickly as possible.
