The imperative of increasing transparency amongst WTO members has been underscored by export controls enacted by countries in response to COVID-19. Canadian businesses cannot succeed in international markets if they are subject to arbitrary whims.<\/p>\n<p>We also welcome the importance the Ottawa Group has given to the Joint Statement Initiative on E-commerce. Having coherent digital trade and data rules is critical for Canadian companies that operate internationally. The E-commerce initiative is also important for enhancing trade facilitation provisions that enable companies to move goods across borders and reach new customers.<\/p>\n<p>As the Ottawa Group sets its priorities, tackling trade-distorting subsidies must on their agenda. If governments are permitted to subsidies their domestic industries under the guise 0f COVID-19 recovery assistance, it will create an uneven and unfair playing field for Canadian companies.<\/p>\n<p>The Canadian Chamber looks forward to continuing to support the government\u2019s efforts to reform the WTO and leverage our international business networks at the OECD, G7, G20, International Chamber of Commerce, and Global Business Coalition.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(OTTAWA) &#8211;\u00a0The Canadian Chamber of Commerce issued the following statement on today\u2019s Ottawa Group ministerial meeting. \u201cCanada\u2019s economic recovery after &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":256802,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-258157","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","category-news-ca","mauthors-mark-agnew","mauthors-canadian-chamber-of-commerce"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258157","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258157"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258157\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":281689,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258157\/revisions\/281689"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/256802"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258157"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258157"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258157"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
