Dear

, How are things with you? I am afraid something has come up here which will probably affect my visit to Canada as planned. Yesterday, I got a notice from the human resource department to attend an official summit for a week in November.
This
event is significant for the promotion of our company, and no other senior officials are present at that duration to attend that. Because of
this
unavoidable circumstance, I would not be able to visit Canada later
this
month as we decided. I am apologizing for
this
inconvenience and expect you will understand how important it is for me to follow the official instructions. I will be able to change my
air-ticket

without any problem. I wonder if you could make time in the month of December as I will be free on that month and able to take a tour. Please let me know your plan. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
