| Abstract: | This article reviews the implications for tourism in and to Canada of NAFTA, the earlier Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with the USA and former bilateral agreements on tourism between Canada and Mexico. It examines impacts on tourism flows among the relevant countries and the likely effects on the Canadian tourism industry - e.g. lower import costs, leading to imprived competitiveness. Such benefits could be undone by any depreciation of the Canadian dollar or by continued economic recession, which should not, however, be blamed on the FTA. |
