Accord de libre-échange entre le Canada et les Etats-Unis : une évaluation économique by Canada. Department of Finance Pdf
The free trade agreement between Canada and the US was designed to eliminate barriers to trade in goods and services between the two countries, to facilitate fair competition and liberalize cross-border investment while also ensuring effective procedures for the joint administration of its provision and the resolution of disputes. This report provides an analysis of the economic impacts with reference to gains expected in Canadian real income and increased purchasing power on both a regional and personal basis. Includes discussion of expected job creation, export and import penetration of major manufacturing sectors, rates of price protection, bilateral contingent protection measures taken by Canada and the US from 1980 to mid-1987, as well as after the signing of the agreement.
