The visa lift underscores the great importance Canada places on its friendship with Mexico, and the closer ties that will come from lifting the visa. The removal of the visa requirement is expected to improve Canada's overall competitiveness as a tourism destination, as well as encourage continued growth of air travel between the two countries - benefitting the Canadian tourism and air travel sectors.
