The board’s latest report on
the Canada-European Union trade deal suggests Canada’s agricultural exports to
Europe will increase by $70 million and total $149 million by 2022.
It’s also projecting the value
of food, beverage and tobacco sales will go from $44 million in 2016 to $106
million in 2022.
Frankly, that's pretty small potatoes.
Maybe the Conference Board realizes that Canada won't have much beef to export and that the Europeans will continue to use a vast array of nuisance regulations to keep a lot of our exports out of their market, trade deal or no trade deal.
