This book was released on 2019-07-22 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper assesses the costs of internal trade barriers and proposes policies to improve internal trade. Estimates suggest that complete liberalization of internal trade in goods can increase GDP per capita by about 4 percent and reallocate employment towards provinces that experience large productivity gains from trade. The positive impact highlights the need for federal, provincial and territorial governments to work together to reduce internal trade barriers. There is significant scope to build on the new Canadian Free Trade Agreement to more explicitly identify key trade restrictions, resolve differences, and agree on cooperative solutions.

This book was released on 1998-04-01 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under a federal system of government, the division of responsibilities between the federal, provincial/state, and local levels of government may create internal barriers to trade. To deal with this problem, the federal and provincial governments in Canada established the Agreement on Internal Trade (AIT). This paper takes stock of the achievements and shortcomings of the AIT. Because the internal barriers to trade being addressed by the AIT are not unique to Canada, the agreement presents a useful model for reform that could be emulated by other countries.

Book excerpt: This book explains why Canadians must rid themselves of interprovincial trade barriers. Canada's provinces do almost as much trade with each other as they do with the rest of the world. But trade between the provinces is harder than with foreign countries. We trouble our own house with an amazing variety of barriers: professionals and tradespeople cannot move freely and practice where they wish, regulation makes it hard for investments to flow to where they are most needed, provincial governments give contracts to local firms even though out-of-province firms can do the job at a lower cost, Ottawa pays the most generous UI to regions with the highest unemployment and thereby encourages people to stay in parts of the country with little promise. The effects of such barriers on the economy are difficult to measure, which may be the reason that little has been done about them. But Canadians cannot afford to ignore their costs. The European Community is very close to the goal of ensuring free trade among its members. Unless we unlock our potential we may fall behind other countries and communities that have recognized the importance of internal as well as external free trade.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The movement of goods and services within Canada is hindered by both federal and provincial government measures, reducing the ability of Canadian industries to compete in global markets. At the 1988 Conference, a study was presented identifying 169 interprovincial trade barriers and examining ways of reducing them, with food standards identified as a priority issue. This paper refocuses the discussion on how the provincial and federal departments of agriculture should address the issue of interprovincial trade barriers in agricultural and food products. The paper describes the developments since the 1988 conference, discusses possible approaches, and sets out 3 recommendations.
