RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Gov. Terry McAuliffe is set to travel to Canada this week to promote Virginia business with a top importer.
McAuliffe’s office said Monday the governor will head a four-day marketing tour starting Tuesday.
The governor will visit Toronto and Montreal during the trade mission.
He will also go to Boston.
Canada is a major trading partner with Virginia, importing more than $3.3 billion in manufactured goods in 2015.
McAuliffe said he plans to promote Virginia oysters, wine, craft beer and travel opportunities during the trip.
The Democratic governor has made economic development a cornerstone of his administration and frequently takes trade missions abroad.
