The United States had in place the "US Manufacturing Clause" which restricted access of Canadian printing firms to the US market, and Canada applied an import duty of ten percent on certain classes of English-language books imported from the US. The US Manufacturing Clause regarding Canada was removed on January 1, 1978, and Canada reduced the import duty to zero ("zero-rating") on January 30, 1979. Both these steps to liberalize the book trade will be re-assessed by the respective governments in 1982. In Canada, a joint industry-government Work Group was established to monitor the impact of removing the duty on books imported from the US on the book publishing industry for the period from 1977 to 1980.
