Open borders : an assessment of the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement / by Sunder Magun ... [et al.].: EC22-3/1988-344E-PDF

"Canada and the U.S. have recently signed a bilateral free-trade agreement. The deal, which provides among other things for the removal of all tariff barriers between the two countries over a ten-year period, starting January l, 1989, is designed to liberalize trade in goods and services between the two countries, liberalize conditions for investment, and establish an effective framework for handling bilateral trade disputes. The major objective of this paper is to simulate the impact of the bilateral agreement on output and employment by 36 industrial sectors, over both the medium term and the longer term"--Abstract, p. iii.
