Thank you, Ms. Ryan.

The design of any measure that may affect trade has to take into account Canada's international trade law as well as the obligations on us that arise from agreements like the World Trade Organization General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, the WTO General Agreement on Trade in Services, and Canada's free trade agreements.

How would the prohibition be consistent with Canada's international trade obligations?
