History
Norway's diplomatic representation in Canada was raised in 1942 to a legation, stationed in Montreal. [2] The first minister in Canada was Daniel Steen, who already had been General Consul in Montreal since 1934.[3] In 1949 the embassy was moved to the Canadian capital of Ottawa and upgraded to an embassy, led by an ambassador.
