Canada and the Trans-Pacific Partnership

Meer over het boek

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) aims to create a significant multilateral free trade bloc among Pacific Rim nations, enhancing economic ties and trade relations. Initially signed by four countries in 2005, its membership has expanded to include major economies like the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The paper explores the complexities of negotiations, including Canada's previous exclusion due to its agricultural policies and intellectual property standards, as well as the interest from additional nations like Japan and South Korea in joining the agreement.
