Joly heads to Africa as Liberals craft ‘approach’ to continent, instead of strategy

Joly is heading to Ivory Coast today before visiting South Africa for two days starting Wednesday.

Her office says the trip to Ivory Coast is aimed at exploring shared counterterrorism priorities and affirming Canada’s ties with both English- and French-speaking countries.
