"At the present time, the trade system of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) seems to be the best way to offer a reference framework for economic relations between states. However, it does not prevent states or supranational organisations from increasing their economic relations beyond that common regulation. Therefore, a particularly close economic relationship between the EU and Canada seems justified. As stressed in the report, the EU is Canada’s second most important trade partner. For its part, in 1976, Canada became the first industrialised country with which the EU signed a framework agreement for commercial and economic cooperation, and it is the EU’s fourth largest source of foreign direct investment. An agreement could lead to relations between the two areas reaching even greater levels of economic cooperation, creating even stronger links between these two areas, which are already profoundly linked by a common cultural approach."@en1
