Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trans-Pacific Partnership, with its twelve participating countries on three continents, is the largest regional trade and investment agreement that Canada has ever negotiated. It is also one of the most controversial— for good reason. Negotiations ended exactly a year ago, in October 2015, and the TPP was signed in New Zealand in February 2016. But there is no guarantee it will ever come into effect. Opposition to the TPP is strongest in the United States, where both 2016 presidential nominees vowed to kill or significantly renegotiate the deal. Outgoing President Barack Obama characterized the TPP as a Made-in-America deal in the hope of getting it passed into law shortly after the November presidential election. But is what is good for corporate America good for Canada? In this book, experts in a dozen policy areas explain what the impact of the TPP agreement would be on Canada. Many of the key issues they explore have received little media coverage, notably the effect of the TPP on environmental protection, health care and other public services, Canada's cultural industries, the labour market, human rights and the democratic decision-making process generally. Perhaps most controversially, the TPP would expand the rights of multinational corporations to sue governments for policies and decisions that interfere with their profits. Most public commentary on the TPP in Canada has come from CEOs and business lobbyists with a vested interest in furthering a free-trade model that impoverishes democracy and weakens our ability to shape public-interest regulation. The expert contributors to this book, drawn from academia, the labour movement and NGO world, offer an independent and nuanced account of the real but underreported costs of the TPP.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Politics - Political systems in general and in comparison, grade: A+, Webster University, language: English, abstract: The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), formerly titled the Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership, is a free trade agreement currently being negotiated that could represent the world’s largest multilateral free trade bloc in terms of gross domestic product (GDP). This agreement, if successfully ratified, would establish stronger economic ties between various Pacific Rim countries. Originally signed by Brunei, Chile, New Zealand, and Singapore in 2005, the list of members participating in the TPP negotiations has since grown in size to include Australia, Peru, the United States, and Vietnam in 2008, Malaysia in 2010, and Canada and Mexico in 2012. From 2010, Canada had been an observer of the negotiations but could not participate as it had been blocked by New Zealand and the United States from joining the talks. This was due to its domestic agricultural policies and intellectual property rights standards. In addition to the current negotiating parties, Japan, the Philippines, Taiwan, and South Korea have also expressed interest in joining the discussions. [...]

Book excerpt: The entry into force of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership will mark the end of a long and winding road for Canada in committing to an Asia Pacific trade strategy, marked by a number of significant shifts in the calculus of costs and benefits.

Book excerpt: Canadians may have good reason to feel generally positive about the outcome of the negotiations that resulted in the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement in October. There are, after all, many important sectors that will benefit from the mega-regional trade deal, and in its current form, the agreement will benefit Canada overall. But it would be premature to allow hopes to get too high just yet. There are still a number of things that must go right for Canada to fully enjoy those benefits, and there is no guarantee that they will. One of the major uncertainties is whether the most important TPP country of all, the United States, will even approve and implement to the deal. While the current administration in Washington is obviously a champion of the TPP, Americans are embarking on what will be a heated electoral cycle, both a presidential election and congressional elections. The politics of the TPP are very much unsettled in the U.S. in a way that they are not in all the other TPP countries, including in Cana.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a big deal in the making. With the Doha Round of multilateral trade negotiations at an impasse, the TPP negotiations have taken center stage as the most significant trade initiative of the 21st century. As of December 2012, negotiators have made extensive progress in 15 negotiating rounds since the talks began in March 2010, though hard work remains to finish the deal in the coming year or so. Despite this effort, however, the TPP is not well understood. In part, the reason lies in the dynamism of the TPP initiative. Unlike other free trade pacts, the growing membership as the talks have proceeded and the broad range, complexity, and novelty of the issues on the agenda have made it difficult to track the substantive detail and progress of the talks. This Policy Analysis aims to remedy this problem by providing a reader's guide to the TPP initiative. It first assesses how much the TPP countries are alike and like-minded in their pursuit of a comprehensive trade deal. It then examines the current status of the talks, the major substantive sticking points, and the implications of Canada and Mexico joining the talks as well as prospective membership of other countries. The Policy Analysis then looks ahead to how the TPP could advance economic integration in the Asia-Pacific region and the implications for trade relations with China.

This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After seven years of negotiation, the United States on October 5, 2015 reached a conclusion of the Trans - pacific partnership agreement with the eleven other TPP countries which are Australia, Japan, Chile, Malaysia, Brunei, Peru, New Zealand, Vietnam, Singapore, Canada and Mexico. According to the office of the United State trade representative website, the TPP is meant to level the playing field for American workers and American businesses through eliminating more than 18,000 taxes and other trade barriers on American products across the eleven other countries in the TPP barrier that put American products at an unfair disadvantage today. TPP will make it easier for American entrepreneurs, farmers and small business owners to export made in America products. Considering the large volume of the full text of TPP which contains about 4500 pages, this book carefully summarizes the trans-pacific partnership agreement pointing out the new features as it will affect the growth and development of the United States.

Book excerpt: Although the prospect of China joining the negotiations in the short term is uncertain, the coun- try's expression of interest underscores why the TPP is important: it has the potential to expand to include all Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation coun- tries (APEC). [...] For countries in the Asia-Pacific region, the main draw of the TPP is preferential access to the United States. [...] Although the outcome of the CETA negotiations is uncertain, if an agreement is reached, it is expected to further liberalize goods and services market access for European compan- ies doing business in Canada and provide Canadian businesses with expanded EU commitments in the areas of automobiles, beef, government procure- ment, and investment-well beyond the benchmark commitments of the WTO agreem [...] For Canadian companies, this means that the investments they make in member countries will be subject to the stronger level of pro- tection agreed upon in the TPP, and that the suppliers and buyers they trade with will adhere to a clear and strong set of rules in the manufacturing and processing of products. [...] Since the United States is the dominant TPP player, China may prefer to negotiate through the fraserinstitute.org Canada and the Trans-Pacific Partnership / 13 Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership1 negotiations, which include the 10 members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), plus the six countries with which ASEAN has existing free trade agreements.
