Consultations in QC, PEI, BC, SK and ON on NAFTA modernization

August 22, 2017

Trade is about creating the best possible conditions for the middle class and those working hard to join it through economic growth, well-paying jobs and shared prosperity.

The Government of Canada is committed to modernizing the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) to ensure that Canadians and Canadian businesses continue to benefit.

From August 22 to September 23, 2017, Lieutenant-General (Retired) Andrew Leslie, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Foreign Affairs (Canada-U.S. Relations), will be in the provinces of Quebec, Prince Edward Island, British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Ontario to discuss NAFTA with Canadians, industry stakeholders and business representatives from key sectors that are vital to our country’s prosperity.

The Government of Canada continues to meet with Canadians to discuss NAFTA’s impact on the economy and its importance to them. These meetings and round-table discussions explore a range of issues related to NAFTA.

We invite Canadians to share online their ideas, experiences and priorities on the modernization of NAFTA.
