The International and Intergovernmental Affairs Branch, Policy Sector (IIAB-POL), has three primary management objectives:

• leading Industry Canada’s participation in the development and negotiation of Canada’s international trade and investment policy agenda, supporting international cooperation (including managing Industry Canada’s obligations under international industrial cooperation agreements), and preparing outgoing and incoming official visits for the Minister of Industry;
• leading the department’s responsibilities for federal/provincial/territorial relations, internal trade, and for relations with key stakeholders; and,
• IAB-POL, through the Investment Canada Act, is responsible for the administration of the Act, including reviewing significant investments in Canada by non-Canadians in order to ensure net benefit to Canada
