Free trade agreements : a tool for economic prosperity / The Honourable Raynell Andreychuk, chair ; The Honourable Percy E. Downe, deputy chair.: YC23-0/421-7E-PDF

"Free trade agreements remain essential to Canada's economic well-being and they have been shown to spur innovation and efficiency. However, these agreements are not ends in themselves. A new approach that is more open to the public and that encourages greater public engagement will help negotiators to better represent Canadians' interests.
