Description
First published in 1993, this book offers an early assessment of the impact of Free Trade on Canadian economic, political, cultural, and social life.
The book focuses on a dozen key areas where the impact of the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement has been felt: manufacturing, the automobile industry, public services, Canadian-American relations, culture, intellectual property, and investment. The authors identify corrosive effects of the Agreement on Canada's political, cultural and social spheres.
Canada Under Free Trade presents the analyses of twenty experts in a variety of fields, all attesting to the profound effects of trade agreements on Canadian society.
