- What are the protectionist forces within the United States and how will they continue to influence U.S. trade policy?
- What would it mean if President Trump invokes the withdrawal article in NAFTA? Can he do so on his own authority? Could negotiations continue within that environment?
- What would NAFTA’s termination mean to Alberta's economy and the energy industry?
- Even if NAFTA negotiations succeed, will the marked increase in U.S. trade remedy actions against Canada in the last three years continue?
