DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE

CONSULTATIONS ON ENHANCING CANADA-EUROPEAN UNION TRADE AND ECONOMIC RELATIONS MULTILATERALLY AND THROUGH A NEW BILATERAL TRADE AND INVESTMENT INITIATIVE

At the Canada-European Union (EU) Summit in December 2002, the Prime Minister and EU leaders instructed trade ministers to design a new type of forward-looking, wide-ranging bilateral "Trade and Investment Enhancement Agreement." At the same time, leaders agreed to work towards the successful and timely conclusion of the World Trade Organization's Doha Development Agenda (WTO negotiations) for the benefit of both developing and developed countries. The Government of Canada is seeking the views of Canadians on the scope of the proposed bilateral trade and investment enhancement agreement as well as on barriers to the European market to be addressed in the context of ongoing WTO negotiations.

Background

As a group, the fifteen EU Member States (see footnote 1)  continue to rank as Canada's most important trading partner after the United States, as well as the largest source and destination of foreign direct investment in Canada after the United States.

Enlargement is expected to add ten new Member States (see footnote 2)  by May 2004, and will turn the EU into the world's largest single economy and into a single market of over 480 million people with a GDP of about US$8.9 trillion — a market similar in size to the North American Free Trade Agreement area (412 million people with a GDP of approximately US$10.2 trillion). (see footnote 3) 

Canada and the EU enjoy a trade relationship that makes a significant contribution to the vigour of each other's economy and one that provides a solid basis for future growth. It is in Canada's broad interest to deepen its relationship with the EU, its second largest trade and investment partner, particularly as the EU expands its membership.

Total Canadian merchandise exports to the EU amounted to $17 billion in 2002, and accounted for 4.3 percent of Canada's global exports and 34 percent of Canada's exports other than to the United States. The annual growth rate in Canadian exports to the EU since 1991 is 4.5 percent, compared to 2.9 percent for the rest of the non-U.S. world. While the United States absorbed 94 percent of the growth in Canada's global exports from 1991 to 2001, the EU accounted for 44 percent of growth in non-U.S. exports.

Imports from the EU increased at a rate of approximately 10 percent per annum, more than double the rate of exports of Canadian products to the EU over the same period (1991 to 2002). In 2002, imports from the EU reached $39 billion. Canada faces an increasing deficit in its balance of trade in goods with the EU, a deficit that stood at $21.9 billion in 2002. Two-way bilateral trade in services in 2002 totalled $20.5 billion (exports to the EU: $9.9 billion; imports from the EU: $10.6 billion).

Investment also contributes to the vitality of the economic relationship. The stock of Canadian foreign direct investment (FDI) in the EU has grown substantially during the past decade and since 1996, it has approximated EU direct investment in Canada. The stock of Canadian direct investment in the EU was $99.9 billion in 2002 (23.1 percent of all outward FDI), while the stock of EU foreign direct investment in Canada stood at $94 billion in 2002, 26.9 percent of all foreign direct investment in Canada.

Canada-EU trade and investment relations are covered by WTO agreements, and by the bilateral Framework Agreement for Commercial and Economic Cooperation signed in 1976. A number of other bilateral agreements also exist, detailing cooperation in customs matters, science and technology, trapping standards, trade in alcoholic beverages, veterinary inspections and the mutual recognition of certification and testing of products for standards purposes. These agreements, alongside the 1990 Declaration on European Community-Canada Relations, the 1996 Joint Political Declaration on Canada-EU Relations and the Joint Canada-EU Action Plan, provide the foundation for a deepening of Canada's relationship with the EU.

Building on this foundation, Canada and the EU committed themselves at the Canada-EU Summit in Ottawa on December 19, 2002, to work towards a new, forward-looking, wide-ranging bilateral "trade and investment enhancement agreement." This new bilateral agreement would go beyond a classic free trade agreement based on the elimination of tariffs. At the same time, leaders agreed to work towards the successful and timely conclusion of the World Trade Organization's Doha Development Agenda (WTO negotiations).

It is Canada's expectation that negotiations with the EU will be concluded once the results of WTO negotiations are known, as the successful conclusion of the latter is of central importance in reducing EU trade barriers. Attaching priority to the WTO negotiations, in concert with the proposed bilateral initiative, would allow Canada and the EU to address barriers to trade and investment more fully through a "two-track" approach. In addition to lowering barriers, the resulting Canada-EU agreement would heighten Canadian and European interest in each other's markets and could bring considerable economic benefits to Canada.

Proposals for the design of a new Canada-EU bilateral agreement are due to be presented to leaders prior to the Canada-EU Summit meeting in Ottawa in December 2003. The content of an eventual agreement will be negotiated by the Government of Canada and the European Union. Prior to such negotiations, the Government of Canada wishes to invite input from Canadian stakeholders.

General Relations

Canada and the EU share a close affinity of views on a broad spectrum of foreign and security issues. This foundation enables Canada and the EU to work closely together on many global issues, including foreign and security policy, human security, non-proliferation issues, justice and home affairs (e.g. efforts to combat illegal migration, drug trafficking, terrorism, and trans-national organized crime), northern cooperation, and academic relations.

The signing of the Canada-EU Framework Agreement marked the beginning of a formal agenda for improved Canada-EU relations and strengthened a relationship that was already close. The Trans-Atlantic Declaration of 1990 and the Joint Canada-EU Political Declaration and Action Plan of 1996 have reinforced this relationship and encouraged closer bilateral political, social, and economic affiliations at all levels.

Submissions by Interested Parties

The Government of Canada seeks the views of all interested Canadians on priorities, objectives, and concerns with regard to the proposed trade and investment enhancement agreement with the enlarged European Union.

The Government is also seeking additional information on EU trade and investment barriers that could be addressed in the context of the WTO negotiations. To the extent that submissions received during the Government's previous consultation exercises on the WTO negotiations were specific to the European Union, those submissions have already been taken into account. (Please visit http://www.dfait-maeci.gc.ca/tna-nac/wto-en.asp for information on WTO consultations).

In particular, we are seeking views with respect to the following:

— identification of Canadian export interests, including products (industrial goods, natural resources, forestry, agriculture, fisheries) in respect of which the European Union should eliminate tariff and non-tariff barriers;

— products for which there may be concerns if access to the Canadian market for exports from the European Union were to be improved, including the staging of any concessions;

— general rules of origin issues and/or advice on appropriate rules of origin or procedures for specific products or sectors;

— "trade facilitation" issues, e.g. significant impediments related to import procedures;

— areas where regulatory cooperation and overall policy coordination could be strengthened;

— ways to improve Canada-EU science and technology cooperation;

— customs-related/immigration issues for both business travellers and commercial goods entering and/or leaving the region;

— general investment issues to be included in the scope of the investment negotiations, the types of problems faced by Canadian investors in the European Union and the type of investment rules that would provide better access, treatment, protection and predictability for investments;

— general cross-border trade in services issues to be included in the scope of negotiations, services sectors in the European Union that could be of interest for further liberalization, and possible measures affecting access, including regulatory measures that may restrict cross-border trade in services and professional accreditation;

— the possible inclusion of government procurement and state trading within the scope of the negotiations;

— the possible inclusion of e-commerce and data protection provisions within the scope of negotiations;

— the possible inclusion of intellectual property rights within the scope of the negotiations;

— areas of economic cooperation with the EU, such as energy, transport, industrial cooperation, and consumer protection;

— ways to reflect the interests and values of Canadians in the areas of the environment and environmental protection;

— ways to reflect the interests and values of Canadians in the areas of labour and labour mobility; and

— ways to reflect the interests and values of Canadians in the areas of corporate social responsibility, culture, and other social concerns as they relate to trade and investment with the European Union.

Submissions referring to concrete trading or investing experiences would be greatly appreciated. All interested parties are invited to submit their views by June 13, 2003. Please be advised that any information we receive as a result of this consultation will be considered public information, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Submissions should include:

1. the contributor's name and address and, if applicable, his/her organization, institution, or business;

2. the specific issues being addressed; and

3. precise information on the rationale for the positions taken, including, for example, anticipated effects on employment and production in Canada, on import and export interests, on social and environmental interests, or on any other economic interest in Canada.

Notice No. SMSE-002-03 — Changes in Procedures for Conformity Assessment Bodies

Notice is hereby given that Industry Canada is releasing the following documents:

    1. Issue 2 of the Recognition Criteria, and Administrative and Operational Requirements Applicable to Certification Bodies for the Certification of Radio Apparatus to Industry Canada's Standards and Specifications (CB-02);
    2. Issue 2 of the Procedure for the Designation of Canadian Certification Bodies by Industry Canada (DES-CB);
    3. Issue 4 of the Procedure for Designation and Recognition of Canadian Testing Laboratories by Industry Canada (DES-LAB[E]);
    4. Issue 4 of the Procedure for the Accreditation of Testing Laboratories by Industry Canada (ACC-LAB[E]); and
    5. Issue 3 of the Procedure for the Recognition of Designated Foreign Testing Laboratories by Industry Canada (REC-LAB[E]).

These documents are effective upon publication of this notice.

Changes in CB-02, Issue 2, include:

— The introduction of an Assessment Checklist for Certification Bodies (Appendix I);

— The splitting of the scope of accreditation to include scope (A) Radio — All Radio Standards Specifications (RSS) in Category I Equipment Standards List, and scope (B) Broadcasting — All Broadcasting Equipment Technical Standards (BETS) in Category I Equipment Standards List; and

— Clarification of requirements on subcontracting, use of recognized testing laboratories and listing of certification by Industry Canada in the Radio Equipment List.

The testing laboratory procedures DES-LAB(E), ACC-LAB(E), REC-LAB(E) and DES-CB have been modified to reflect the changes in CB-02 and to take into account the recognition of testing laboratories for radio apparatus standards in order to assist certification bodies in maintaining their expertise.
