QUEBEC — The Quebec government says it will delay the opening of its representative office in Israel amid the unprecedented attacks on the country.
Catherine Boucher, a spokeswoman for the province’s international relations minister, says the office will officially open when security conditions improve.
She says the director of the office, which was scheduled to open in Tel Aviv next week, is working from Quebec for the time being.
Announced in early August, the office at the Canadian Embassy is intended to boost governmental relations and increase co-operation around research and innovation between Quebec and Israel.
