Στη συνάντησή μου με τον Υπ.Τουρισμού του Οντάριο @MichaelTibollo αναφέρθηκα στη σταθερή διψήφια αύξηση του τουριστικού ρεύματος από τον Καναδά προς τη χώρα μας τα τελευταία χρόνια. Τα πρώτα μηνύματα είναι θετικά για το 2019, όπου επιδιώκουμε νέα άνοδο σε αφίξεις και έσοδα. pic.twitter.com/sUDy6sUSlk
