Delivering a complex program demands integration of effort and new approaches to governance. Federal departments need resources and adequate time to develop new approaches. For #shipping, it also requires understanding to address supply chain constraints and enhance #trade
The Chamber released its Report Card on the #OceansProtectionPlan. While much has been accomplished, it's time for a recalibration to address the supply chain too. Check it out at: newswire.ca/en/releases/arch… #OurCoasts #trade

Chamber of Shipping Issues An Open Letter To Federal Political Leaders. See newswire.ca/news-releases/ch… #elxn43 #trade
The lack of discussion during #elxn43 about #trade, economic policy, and market access is disappointing. While Canada made great strides in coastal protection, it needs to focus on Canada's supply chain and competitiveness. This would grow the economy and reduce emissions
World Economic Forum releases its Global Competitiveness Index 2019 today and Canada drops two positions to #14. Find out more here: wef.ch/2opq9i0 #gcr19 #trade #elxn43 #shipping
