Sub-federal actors are increasingly important in trade policy, but they are not monolithic. Their motivations and preferences differ. We take a close look at CETA to understand why.
Sub-Federal Variation in Trade Agreement Negotiations @Jorg_Broschek @PGoff1 look at multi-level trade policy-making, with a case study on the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) between Canada and the EU https://t.co/GUNssIYWpn
Great piece from @bhaggart ... understanding values trade-offs (in platform governance and elsewhere) can open the way to productive discussion of the best way forward.
In this piece, @AmyKaram asks: What are the implications for economic security and global competitiveness of Canada’s not being a leading #5G player in its own right? What does this say about our national performance on innovation? https://t.co/f8O4qzoIuf
How should we understand the relationship between national security and economic security in Canada? How can we facilitate a broad-based conversation about it?
"Let’s add one more item to Canada’s long list of priorities in the new year: preserving economic security as the foundation of national security."

New from @PGoff1 and myself: as we re-imagine national security in today's technological and geopolitical context, economic security is very much front and centre in considerations. We unpack what this means. https://t.co/xT28bsnSUI

@snlester Why is there such resistance to the waiver? Over 100 countries say they need it, if only to speed up a process that might be possible under existing rules. Is it bc the waiver will set a bad precedent? Is it the potential costs to pharma? Trying to understand.
