Seizing Global Advantage
Conclusion
The Government of Canada is committed to helping Canadian companies achieve global commercial success and to making Canada a magnet for global investment, enterprise and talent.
Canada’s international commercial network – the Trade Commissioner Service – is being expanded to meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of globally engaged Canadian companies.
Free trade agreements are being pursued to provide Canadians with better access to markets where their commercial interests show the greatest potential for growth.
New bilateral agreements on foreign investment and science and technology cooperation are providing solid foundations for cultivating stronger commercial linkages in key markets like India and China.
So too are more strategically targeted efforts to raise awareness of Canada’s many commercial advantages.
Furthermore, the advantages Canada is building through tax cuts and upgrades to infrastructure, especially at Canada-U.S. border crossings and Canada’s Asia-Pacific Gateway, can be leveraged to enhance our competitive position in North America, Asia and beyond.
In the face of rising international competition and profound difficulties in the global economy, Canada’s future prosperity hinges on how well we collectively harness our competitive advantages to maintain our place as one of the world’s great trading nations and most successful economies.
