During a brief opening statement Senators Lloyd Benson (Texas), Max S. Baucus (Montana), John H. Chafee (Rhode Island) and Spark Matsunaga (Hawaii) outline the American government's position on free trade. In response to reporters questions the Senators discuss such "stumbling blocks" as the pessimistic attitude of some Canadians toward free trade, recent Canadian-American disputes involving softwood lumber, steel and other products, Canadian cultural protection, the current Autopact, the low priority of free trade issues among some Americans and the trade remedy measures.Subjects:CANADA~FREE TRADE & PROTECTIONISM~INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC RELATIONS~INTERNATIONAL TRADE~TRADE AGREEMENTS~TRADE REGULATION~UNITED STATESLanguage:EnglishDetailed holdings information: -
