Border Issues
| The health and efficiency of the Canada-US border is fundamental to the economic well-being of both countries. Since the events of 9/11, the US government has undertaken various measures to secure its borders from potential additional terrorist attacks. This has hindered the flow of goods, services and people with subsequent negative effects on both the American and Canadian economies. The CIC Border Issues Working Group explores the Canada-US border from security, economic and political perspectives by looking at how the United States and Canada can protect each other through increased border efficiency and security, while maintaining their competitive edge and quality of life in an era of emerging economies and alarming global forces. | |
