WTO GATS Negotiations 

In the context of the current market access phase of negotiations of the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), WTO Members agreed to submit revised market access offers by May 31, 2005. In accordance with this declaration, Canada has submitted its revised offer, which builds upon the initial offer which Canada tabled on March 31, 2003. Like Canada’s initial GATS offer, the revised offer outlines what further improvements Canada is prepared to offer other countries in exchange for greater access to their service markets.

The revised offer follows Canada’s initial offer in WTO Services negotiations, tabled on March 31, 2003, as well as Canada's initial requests in WTO Services Negotiations, released in July 2002, and Canada's initial position in the GATS, made public in March 2001.
