江副院長於致詞時，逐一介紹一同出席的跨黨派委員，並代表立法院韓國瑜院長，向所有在北美辛勤打拼、貢獻卓著的臺商朋友，致以最崇高的敬意與感謝。
In his remarks, Vice President Chiang introduced the cross-party delegation members one by one. On behalf of Legislative Yuan President Daniel K.Y. Han, he wholeheartedly thanked the Taiwanese business community, which is working industriously and making great contributions in North America.
江副院長高度肯定臺商所扮演的關鍵角色，並指出，北美臺商正是推動臺美、臺加外交與經貿交流最堅強的夥伴。在臺商的努力下，美國於今（2025）年1-9月已耀升為臺灣最大貿易夥伴，雙邊貿易總額高達1,660億美元；臺加經貿合作也在「臺加投資促進及保障協議（FIPA）」架構下蓬勃發展。同時，他也提到目前臺美正在進行的對等關稅談判，期盼談判能順利達成有利於雙邊的成果。
He spoke highly of the key roles played by Taiwanese businesses, and pointed out that they are the most reliable partners in advancing the Taiwan-U.S. and Taiwan-Canada relations as well as trade exchanges with both countries. Because of their endeavors, the U.S. became the largest trade partner of Taiwan for the first nine months of 2025, with bilateral trade amounting to US$166 billion. Trade cooperation between Taiwan and Canada is also blooming under the framework of a Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (FIPA). Additionally, he also mentioned that the tariff negotiations between Taiwan and the U.S. are still ongoing, and that he hoped the negotiations would produce results that benefit both countries.
江副院長強調，臺商為臺灣連結世界的橋樑，而立法院對於海外臺商及僑胞的支持有高度跨黨派共識，立法院也是臺商及僑胞永遠的「娘家」，立法院將持續傾聽僑界與產業界的聲音，成為臺商最堅實的後盾。
He affirmed the contribution made by Taiwanese businesses in connecting Taiwan with the rest of the world. The support for overseas Taiwanese businesses and compatriots from the Legislative Yuan is underpinned by a high level of cross-party consensus. The Legislative Yuan will always be a sanctuary for Taiwanese businesses and compatriots as it strives to hear their concerns while serving as the most reliable backing for them.
江副院長指出，除了持續增進雙邊的經貿往來與投資外，期盼臺美持續在安全等其他議題上深化合作。他再次肯定白越珠總會長卓越的領導能力，並盼「北美洲臺灣商會聯合總會」能持續壯大，並祝福所有臺商事業興旺、萬事如意。
Apart from continuously enhancing bilateral trade exchanges and investments, he hoped that Taiwan and the U.S. would also consistently deepen cooperation on security issues. He acknowledged President Henry’s outstanding leadership capabilities once again, and offered his best wishes for the TCCNA’s continued growth and success. Last but not least, he gave his blessing to all Taiwanese businesses for a prosperous future.
