Ghana’s High Commissioner to Canada, Professor Dora Francisca Edu-Buandoh, has unveiled an ambitious strategy to recalibrate bilateral trade relations, prioritising agribusiness value addition, artificial intelligence (AI) partnerships and clean energy collaboration as pillars of a deeper economic engagement between the two countries.
The approach represents a shift from traditional commodity-led trade toward technology-driven and investment-focused cooperation, at a time when Ghana is seeking to diversify export earnings and Canada is expanding its commercial footprint across African markets.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with the Business & Financial Times, Professor Edu-Buandoh said she has already begun engagements with provincial governments and business leaders in Nova Scotia, underscoring a deliberate strategy to navigate Canada’s federal economic structure.
“To strengthen relations with Canada, I need to go into the provinces because Canada has a federal system,” she explained. “Each province has its strengths in various trades. I will tap into these unique strengths while working with the federal government to strengthen the overarching relationship between our two countries,” she explained.
