Dairy Policy Reform in Canada and the United States:
Protection at Home or International Trade?

Joseph Balagtas, Associate Professor, Agricultural Economics, Purdue University
 
with comments and analysis by Milos Barutciski,
Partner and Co-Chair, International Trade and Investment, Bennett Jones LLP
 
For several decades, dairy policies in Canada and the United States have protected and supported domestic dairy industries. Regulations have taken different forms undefined supply management in Canada, and complex pricing rules in the United States undefined but both systems hurt consumers, shield domestic dairy from foreign competition, and jeopardize efforts to participate in proposed international free-trade negotiations.
 
Panelists Martha Hall Findlay and Joe Balagtas will assess the progress to date on implementing dairy policy reforms and discuss the cost of inaction in terms of global competitiveness undefined in particular, international dairy markets. David Biette, director of the Wilson Center’s Canada Institute, will serve as moderator.
 
This panel will be particularly relevant to public policy and trade policy analysts, international business people, trade scholars, members of the academic and legal communities, and the general public with an interest in Canada/U.S. bilateral issues.
