YEREVAN

The governments of Armenia and Canada have signed an agreement on
eliminating double taxation on income and property.

The agreement was signed in Yerevan on 29 June, the Armenian Ministry
of Finance and Economy told Arminfo news agency today. The aim of the
agreement is to create a favourable taxation regime between the
countries and boost investment. Armenia has similar agreements with 25
countries, and 17 of them are effective.

We have to say that the trade turnover between Armenia and Canada is
so small that the Armenian National Statistics Service has not
included it in its annual report for 2003.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
