Record information – Details Fonds/collection:CANADA. NATIONAL PRESS THEATREAccession:1986-0602Media:SoundProduction date:1986-06-04Production company:National Press TheatreDescription:The press is given an off-the-record briefing on Canada/U.S. bilateral trade issues by Doug Waddell, U.S. Trade Relations Division, External Affairs; Don Campbell, A.D.M., U.S. Branch, External Affairs; and Anne-Marie Doyle, Director, International Economic Relations Division, Finance Canada. In opening remarks, Campbell cautions that trade measures in the United States are not necessarily directed against Canada, noting that there is a "trade war" and protectionist pressure within the U.S. itself, where the system is competitive and particularly legalistic. In response to questions from the press, Campbell, Waddell and Doyle discuss: free-trade negotiations; the current U.S. position on softwood lumber exports versus its 1983 position; the Canadian response to the U.S. action on shakes and shingles; the practice of stumpage; and "unbound" tariffs. <40mn> Subjects:CANADA~INTERNATIONAL TRADE REGULATION~PRESS CONFERENCES~TARIFFS~UNITED STATES ~CAMPBELL, DONALD W.~DOYLE, ANNE-MARIE~WADDELL, DOUGLAS G.Language:EnglishDetailed holdings information: -
