The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a trade deal that would make it easier for Canadian companies to sell their goods and services in the U.S., Mexico, Australia and eight other Pacific Rim countries. The deal will benefit Canadian service companies who will be able to open up operations in Asian and South American countries. Opponents argue that this bill will incentivize Canadian companies to move service and manufacturing jobs overseas. Proponents argue that it would make Canadian companies more successful at selling their goods and services in Pacific Rim countries, leading to a stronger economy, more jobs and higher incomes for Canadian workers.
@9JLF2GL3mos3MO
a trade treaty is a good idea but this will incentivize companies to move jobs out of the country so if moving jobs outside a country is prevented in some way then yes.
@9FM9QN97mos7MO
Yes, this might lead to economic growth.
@9DW7GRS8mos8MO
@9CGBPXC10mos10MO
Don't have a preference.
@9C8YBHH11mos11MO
Yes, as long as said oversea country also gets a part of the profit
@99SFZCX1yr1Y
Yes, as long as the shipping is eco-friendly
@962KL2Y1yr1Y
Yes, as long as an industrial policy can be implemented
@99SZPFK1yr1Y
Yes, if they use more environmentally friendly alternatives to fuel the shipping process
@98F2D7F1yr1Y
Depends...jobs and production facilities should not go offshore unless no practical alternative. Must be able to carbon tax imports.
@937NK832yrs2Y
Only if servicing and manufacturing remain domesticated including any profits
@8ZSJL5B2yrs2Y

Cut all trade ties with Communist China as soon as practical. All other TPP members are okay.
@8C5KS8Q4yrs4Y
Yes, but we should avoid importing what we can easily produce here in Canada (grain, beef, oil for example)

I’m uneducated on this issue.
@92YHQCV2yrs2Y
No, this will incentivize companies to move jobs out of the country, plus there are too many hidden provisions in this specific agreement
@8WFV28T2yrs2Y
Yes, but it should be one line that says there are no trade restrictions between any nations in the TPP
@8KX67Q93yrs3Y
No, I support a unilateral free trade policy, but if the TPP must exist, I suggest we renegotiate it.
@8KLLCKT3yrs3Y
Don’t know enough on this topic
@78S5M874yrs4Y
We should be peaceful to everyone and trade with anyone.
@7XNYNZC4yrs4Y
Yes, but incentivize companies to keep service and manufacturing in the U.S.
@29G823T3yrs3Y
Favor free trade in principle as beneficial, but dislike increasing intellectual property law guarantees.
