Barbados-Canada relations refer to the bilateral relations between Canada and Barbados. In 1907, the Government of Canada opened a Trade Commissioner Service to the Caribbean region located in Bridgetown, Barbados. Following Barbadian independence from the United Kingdom in November 1966, the Canadian High Commission was established in Bridgetown, Barbados on 27 September 1973. There is a High Commission of Barbados in Ottawa and a Barbadian Consulate in Toronto. The relationship between both nations today partly falls under the larger gambit of Canada–Caribbean relations. Today is estimated that as much as 8% of Canadian foreign investment passes through Barbados.〔(Barbados and Canada a perfect fit ), (30 September 2014) Barbados Advocate〕 == History == The relationship between the nations of Barbados and Canada extends as far back as the late 17th century.〔(Canadian Manufacturer's and Exporters Conference later this month – 2007 )〕 During this period, Barbados and the current provinces of Canada were a series of colonial possessions of Great Britain and France. In the early most instances of trade between the two regions, Barbados and Canada found themselves able to fill niche markets between one another's markets. The Bluenose vessels were instrumental to trade as Barbados and other islands exported their sugar and rum to the area of Canada, in return Canada exported salted cod and lumber supplies to the West Indies. This trade continued for a number of years, however these ties eventually weaned as the influence of the Thirteen American colonies grew in importance for Canada, Barbados, and the wider West Indies region. In 1907, the Government of Canada opened its Trade Commissioner Service to the Caribbean region.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Women in Trade Mission to Jamaica and Barbados – January 20–25, 2008 )〕 This was located on the current grounds of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Bridgetown, Barbados. By the early 20th century several large Canadian financial institutions looked towards expansion into the West Indies. On 16 February 1911 the Royal Bank of Canada marked the opening of their first commercial branch in Barbados.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Caribbean and Bahamas )〕 then in 1920, CIBC did the same,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Barbados – A Unique Offshore Domicile – Wealth Management – Barbados )〕 and finally Scotiabank followed the first two in 1956.〔http://scotiabank.com/cda/content/0,1608,CID9903_LIDen,00.html〕
