In a world where tariffs have been significantly reduced, perhaps notwithstanding some of the most recent events in the U.S., the biggest barriers to trade are these technical barriers that come from regulation. What we have seen is that regulators require incentives in order to embark on some of these regulatory co-operation initiatives. They ultimately have the same goal, which is to reduce burden on Canadian businesses as well as increase choice of goods in the marketplace for Canadian consumers.
The regulatory co-operation agenda is one that is meant, overall, to reduce unnecessary burdens that are the result of duplicative requirements. This is one tool in the tool kit that the government is trying to give itself.
