Description
Canada has been one of the most vocal countries promoting the concept of inclusive global trade and incorporated this goal in the USMCA and the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans Pacific Partnership. In the United States, President Biden has called for a “trade policy for the middle class” that expands the opportunities for small and medium sized businesses to engage in exporting. Strengthening the rules-based international trading system is important to both countries.
The Wilson Center is pleased to host Canada’s Minister for International Trade, Export Promotion, Small Business and Economic Development, the Hon. Mary Ng, for a conversation on how inclusive trade can be realized in trade agreements and economic policy by both countries and provide a catalyst for a North American economic rebound after the pandemic. University of Toronto Professor Peter Loewen, Director of the Munk School for Global Affairs and Public Policy and Canada Institute Director Christopher Sands will engage Ng and assess the prospects for a renewed U.S. – Canada partnership for global trade.
