Tourism

8. Conclusion

Governments and the tourism industry have an unprecedented opportunity, particularly through support of the CCTM, to exercise policy leadership in pursuing a common vision for tourism in Canada.

The National Tourism Strategy provides a foundation for a long-term, coordinated approach to sustainable growth of the tourism sector. By working collaboratively, public and private sector tourism stakeholders can continue building an internationally competitive tourism sector for Canada and its future generations.

F/P/T governments and industry have taken the first step to improving cooperation and collaboration among governments and industry. The next steps will be to continue to work together to advance the Strategy, and to implement the "priorities for action" set out on the two previous pages. All governments, in partnership with their industry, must bring to bear their resolve to turn actions into results.
