Canada’s 15 in force free trade agreements (FTAs) give Canadian businesses access to more than 1.5 billion consumers across 51 countries, strengthening our global reach and economic resilience.
Canada has spent decades building strong, reliable trade relationships around the world—opening doors to new markets, creating jobs at home, and supporting a more competitive, diversified economy.
These agreements don’t just strengthen businesses; they help deliver real benefits to Canadians by supporting good jobs, lowering costs on everyday goods, and expanding consumer choice.
Our FTAs help to create more predictable, transparent trading environments, giving Canadian companies a competitive edge as they grow internationally.
