Chairman’s Message
The year 2011-2012 has been, for the realization of our mandate, a very good year although strewed with a few hurdles. The challenges encountered during this exercise have been overcome with brio by a permanent team always dedicated to the intensification of trade, social and human relations between Canada and all countries of the African continent. I want to thank and congratulate the team of the Executive Committee, on whom I could always count on their collaboration. This year, three areas have guided our actions: the implementation of the strategic plan, the growth and diversification of our membership and finally, the quantity and quality of our networking events and information. Thus, during the summer of 2011, members of the Executive Committee, along with several former presidents, held a work session which was designed to draw up an assessment of current activities, especially to review and confirm the positioning of CCAfrica at the level of Canadian activities in Africa, as well as African activities in Canada. It was then agreed to maintain the strategic objectives adopted during the previous year. However, given the significant work planned in the areas of mining and large infrastructure projects in Africa, it was decided to focus and direct our efforts towards these sectors to better assist our members in their economic position on the continent. The membership has always remained a major concern for our organization. The quality and quantity of our members help to provide the necessary financial resources to achieve our mission, but more importantly gives an organization, such as ours, the prestige and awareness needed to develop and maintain our credibility with economic and political actors of our country. Also, many well-targeted actions have been deployed by our permanent staff, supported by some members of our Board, to allow the growth and consolidation of our membership. However, it is clear that on this point, there is still much to do and, although CCAfrica continues to regularly add to its membership, the fact remains that this difficult task brings some disappointments. We believe in the usefulness and also the need of our « raison d’être » and it is a fact that, more and more, we share it with a lot of players interested in this great continent of Africa. As you have seen this year, our team has worked hard to develop many activities just as interesting as the others. Whether it is traveling on the African continent, or the organization of seminars, congresses, conferences and other networking activities and formal sharing of information for business development, the team of Lucien Bradet was able to share our passion for Africa with many of our friends and partners. It would also be unwise not to recognize the excellent work done to our corporate image and our communication tools that have experienced this year, a quantum leap into modernity and technology. In conclusion, I would like to thank all CCAfrica members for their support, members of our Board for their wise advices, the Executive Committee for their tireless work, and especially Lucien, Leonie, Chris and the permanent team, once again this year, did a magnificent job. I would be remiss not to also thank Marie-France Lebreton for the excellent work she has done over the years she worked for CCAfrica. We believe in this continent and to the integrity of men and women who build it. Thank you. Michel Côté Page 3
Message from the CEO of the Canadian Council on Africa Dear Members, The Canadian Council on Africa celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2012. This is an important moment in its history and in pursuing its mission. For the occasion, we revamped our image with a new logo that was unveiled in January and we storm the social networks in order to share information about our activities, our missions and all economic news of Africa . I do not need to make the inventory of all activities of CCAfrica since 2002, suffice it to say they were very numerous, varied, and they have affected the majority of African countries. Our mission to increase economic relations between Canada and Africa, is still our goal and will be for years to come. Yes great progress has been made. Trade between our countries and the African continent has increased fivefold during this period, going from 2 billion to more than 10 billion. If we add to these figures the investment of Canadian mining assets in Africa, we must read, from 5 to 35 billion. We can speak of an important development but it is still insufficient considering the capabilities of Canada and investment and trade opportunities in Africa. Therefore CCAfrica will in the coming years intensify its efforts to maximize the potential of our relations with more than 54 countries and a population now exceeding one billion persons. During the past year we have held a large number of activities in four provinces: British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec. These activities have enabled us to work with hundreds of Canadians who share our goals and to inform them about the opportunities and challenges of the continent. These events have enabled us to receive a large number of African delegations clearly interested in developing closer relations with Canadians. CCAfrica couldn’t have accomplished this work without the close collaboration we have with the African Diplomatic Corps, the Canadian Government and the advice of many senior officials responsible for the continent, the Provincial Governments, members who renew their membership to our network and faithfully participate in our activities and finally a staff dedicated and convinced of the importance of our mission. Lucien Bradet President, CEO
Message from the Regional Vice-President Western Canada Hello, My name is Frank Kense and I am the CCAfrica Regional Vice-President for Western Canada. I am based in Alberta and commute regularly between Edmonton, and downtown Calgary, where I have a small office. I am very pleased to be associated with CCAfrica since my background is in African archaeology. I worked extensively in northern Ghana and have also been involved with projects in Sudan, Gambia and Cameroon. Africa has always been very dear and important to me!
Annual Report 2012
Since assuming the role of Regional Vice President for Western Canada, I have been focused on building the profile of CCAfrica in the West. Since this area includes Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia, the task before me is certainly challenging! During this past year, I have been involved with the following projects: 1) NIPC tour of Vancouver and Calgary – September 2011: A 14 persons delegation from the Nigeria Investment Promotion Commission visited both Vancouver and Calgary (and then Toronto) and asked for a forum in each city to present the opportunities in Nigeria to Canadian companies. We also set up a number of one on one business meetings. 2) Exploring New Frontiers in Canada – Africa Business Opportunities – A New “Silk Road” Vancouver Conference – January 25, 2012 – Over 30 representatives from the private and public sector attend a daylong event of presentations by Embassy/High Commission spokesmen, Canadian business leaders active in Africa and the Canadian government support agencies. This was the first formal entry into the Lower Mainland of promoting African economic opportunities. 3) CCAfrica Energy Forum – Calgary, June 11, 2012 – Nearly 100 registrants from Africa and Canada gathered to explore the huge potential in African energy development and to network with African and Canadian business leaders and public sector agencies. The AEF was a great lead in to the Global Petroleum Show which is held in Calgary very two years. Much work remains to be done to raise awareness in the West of CCAfrica as the leading Canadian voice for the promotion and encouragement of Canadian business leadership in the economic growth of Africa and the recognition that there exist immense mutual benefits on both sides for partnership and cooperation. But the task has certainly started. Frank Kense Regional Vice President – Western Canada
Message from Vice-President Ontario
centuries the interest of many other countries in world. In addition, Africa has the fortune of having a dynamic upcoming labour force made up of young people. All these factors make up a good recipe and foundation for economic development and trade. Canada is well position to becoming a great business partner for Africa due to its vast experience and knowledge in various sectors such: natural resources, services, infrastructure, education, etc. However CCAfrica main challenge has been to convince the Canadian business community of the potentials that exist in Africa, due to lack of good governance and security in some countries, perception and misinformation about Africa, and competition from other and more vocal regions in the world. Nonetheless, CCAfrica Ontario was able, this past year, to organize a number of platform or events to provide venues for Africans and their Canadians counterpart to know each other better and exchange information. These events included: 1. Infrastructure Mission to Toronto lead by Governor of Lagos 2. Nigeria Investment Promotion tour in Toronto 3. Zambia Investment Promotion event in Toronto, with Keynote Speakers Mr. Peter Munk, Chairman of Barrick Gold and Ambassador of Zambia to Canada 4. Hosted a delegation from Ivory Coast lead by Minister in charge of reconstruction: inviting Canadian companies to take advantage various business opportunities in Ivory Coast following the civil war. 5. Seminar on Business Opportunities in Ethiopia with Keynote Speaker, the Hon. Minister of Mines of Ethiopia. CCAfrica Ontario plans for the next fiscal year is to increase its presence in Ontario by recruiting new members and organizing more events that would help increase awareness of the business potentials that exist in Africa and encourage Ontario companies to add Africa as one of their potential business destinations. The coming of Ethiopian Airlines to Toronto starting July 17, 2012 with direct flight Addis, Ababa - Toronto, Canada, will not only ease the mind of the people who feel that Africa is on another planet but it encourage economic relations between Canada and the Sub-Saharan of Africa. We are pleased to have in our team Ms. Dalal Zayouna, who was a past manager of Canada - Arab Business Council; her experience in membership recruitment, planning or organizing events will be a big asset to our team. Sincerely, Nola Kianza, Vice-President Ontario
I hereby Nola Kianza, Vice President, CCAfrica for the province of Ontario and a proud Co-Founder of CCAfrica together with Ms. Deborah Turnbull, former Vice President International, Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters. I have been Vice President, Ontario since the formation of this organization. It is rewarding and humbling to celebrate the 10 Years Anniversary of this great organization; it seems like it was just yesterday. CCAfrica was created based on the believe that private sector development is key to sustainable development, poverty reduction, job creation, etc., which lead to peace and security, prosperity, good health, good education and self-esteem of the people of Africa; In the same time promote trade and business relationship between Canada and Africa. While Canada is well known in Africa for its humanitarian endeavors but falls short when come to participating in economic development or promoting business relations between the continent of Africa and Canada. Africa represent a potential market of over 1 billion people for Canadian goods and services; and the continent of Africa is richly endowed with over 30% of world natural resources that have attracted for
Message from the Vice-President Quebec and Maritimes
Since we last met in June 2011 much has taken place on the Québec side. In effect, the Québec Vice-Presidency, then headed by Marie-France Lebreton, led several projects that have been very successful. Among these projects, it is important to note the Program for Partnerships and Industrial Clusters (PSPFI), in cooperation with the Ministry of Economic Development, Innovation and Export Trade (MDEIE) of Québec, as well as a major conference and a wage subsidy granted by Emploi Québec. In the meantime, I made my entrance as the new Vice President for Québec and the Maritimes. The major projects that were conducted in Quebec for the year 2011-2012:
Annual Report 2012

1) Support Programme Partnerships and Industrial Sectors (PSPFI) with MDEIE: This project, a partnership between the Canadian Council on Africa and the MDEIE, provides financial support towards our activities promoting business opportunities for Québec companies in Africa. We can mention a number of activities and initiatives that were discovered and established through the support of this initiative: one in Mali and the other in South Africa; two economic missions: one in Cameroon and one in Côte d’Ivoire; a study on the peripheral aspects of the field of education in Africa, a training seminar in collaboration with the Université Laval on the particular characteristics of doing business in the various African subregions and finally a major Conference on Financial Institutions as engines for SME development in Africa. This last event was a great success both in Québec and in the rest of Canada (250 participants from 18 countries) and it is expected to be extended into other parts of the country later this year. 2) Salary Subvention from Emploi Quebec allowing to hire a Project Manager on a full-time basis, Miss Leonie Perron. This helps us greatly in organizing our events and other tasks, while facilitating the transition of the Vice-Presidency. We sincerely hope to retain her services after the six months granted by this subvention. This is why it is essential to ensure a membership renewal rate of our members and increase our revenue. To do this, we negotiated the renewal of our PSPFI with MDEIE which will give us a significant funding support for the year 2012-2013. In addition, we hope to recruit two new members per month, while ensuring a renewal rate of 90% of our members. Moreover, CCAfrica wishes to extend its territory to the Maritime provinces. So this summer, we will visit New Brunswick and Nova Scotia to build relationships with these provinces to recruit new members and make some presentations on the African opportunities.
CCAfrica’s Financial Institutions Conference (March 19 & 20) The Conference Financial Institutions: Key Partner in Doing Business in Africa brought together over 200 experts, practitioners, ambassadors and businesspeople to share best practices, foster partnerships, and, ultimately catalyze Canadian investment in Africa. The conference focused on four overall themes: outlining Africa’s prospects and risks; surveying the available financing options; providing real-world case studies across industries and sectors; and facilitating one-on-one meetings between African and Canadian partners.
…Through Training Seminary
In conclusion, a number of great networking, learning and other opportunities on how to access the African continent await you for the years 2012-2013 along with the Canadian Council on Africa and we look forward to continuing to serve you. Sincerely, Karl Miville-de Chêne, Vice President Eastern Canada
Throughout the of the year, CCAfrica pursued three major objectives that have guided all of its activities and achievements that are:
1.Promoting Africa in Canada through Conferences:
In collaboration with AffutJob, a CCAfrica member specialized in this area, CCAfrica organized an event where attendees received relevant information on best practices, different channels of recruitment, main difficulties, cultural differences, etc. to find the right staff.
OHADA BUSINESS LAW: AN ESSENTIAL SUBJECT;
Exploring New Frontiers: Opportunities in Canada-Africa Economic Relations A New “Silk Road” The theme of the conference, which was held on January 25th 2012, was to familiarize Canadian companies interested in venturing into the Africa marketplace with current economic and political trends. More importantly perhaps, was the opportunity to listen to Canadian companies already active in Africa and to share in some practical examples and experiences from doing business there today. Page 5
How can Canadian Companies Recruit Effectively in Africa?
On August 25th in Montreal, the Canadian Council on Africa organized a strategic information session on the theme of the OHADA Business Law. Thanks to his expertise and knowledge on OHADA (Organisation pour l’Harmonisation en Afrique du Droit des Affaires), Mr. Émile Bekolo carried the presentation on a wide range of subjects such as the business environment in the Sub-Sahara region, the OHADA itself, the different functions of its institutions, especially the Common Court of Justice and Arbitration (CCJA), and the presentation of the adopted Uniform Acts of the OHADA.
