Stelmach Wants Provincial Trade Barriers Dropped

The Alberta premier says this is a prime opportunity to revisit the issue of internal trade barriers, which he says cost the Canadian economy about $14 billion a year. Stelmach says eliminating such barriers would increase productivity and competitiveness, build a bigger economy and help Canada compete with other trading nations. University of Alberta economist Mike Percy says a recent trade agreement between Alberta and British Columbia should be used as a template because right now it's easier to trade with the United States than it is with other provinces. http://money.canoe.ca/News/Other/2007/11/09/4643580-cp.html
