Brian Crombie Radio Hour - Epi 1398 - Managed Trade with Arthur Lam

Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian interviews Arthur Lam. Arthur Lam of Nexus Strategic Consultants talks about his provocative article: “In clinging to the dying era of free trade, Canada has lost its edge”. Arthur writes: “Canada urgently needs to abandon outdated free trade strategies for a managed trade approach. Canadian businesses need an active government that facilitates commerce, not just negotiates agreements that sit on shelves. We need to concentrate on sectors with strong export potential, bilateral arrangements that facilitate those exports, and an independent Trade Commissioner Service focused on priority markets.”
