Dear readers,

As summer continues, we hope you are finding time to enjoy the longer days, explore British Columbia's beautiful outdoors, or simply slow down with a good book and a cup of tea.

Speaking of books, our EU Book Club is returning this autumn to the charming Roedde House Museum—this time for an afternoon of literature and High Tea. If you're one of our regular readers (or would like to become one!), now is the perfect time to start Juli Zeh's novel 'Corpus Delicti'. We look forward to another lively discussion in wonderful company.

This month also brought encouraging news for Canada–Germany relations. On July 29, Uniper and Ksi Lisims LNG signed the first major long-term LNG supply agreement between Canada and Germany. At a time when geopolitical developments continue to underline the importance of resilient and diversified energy partnerships, this agreement is an important milestone. We are delighted to see Canada and Germany deepening their cooperation in ways that strengthen energy security while building on long-term trust and shared interests.

As always, we hope you enjoy this month's newsletter and thank you for your continued interest in Germany, Canada and the many connections between our two countries.

Warm summer wishes,
Your team at the German Consulate General Vancouver
