Tourism Australia MD Robin Mack Discusses Canadian & US Market with John Kirk | VIDEO

by John Kirk  March 03, 2026

“We have great friendship between Australia and Canada, but we don’t share this weather,” said Robin Mack, newly appointed Managing Director for Tourism Australia, in a video interview with Travel Market Report Canada Editor-in-Chief John Kirk on a chilly March day in Toronto.

Canadian visitors were up 4% to more than 171,000, and their total spend represented more than $1 billion. Mack says Australia focuses on spend per tourist rather than visitor numbers, and Canadians are a desirable group with strong potential for growth.
