Book Description
From the Foreword: Most Canadians and a growing number of Americans are aware that our two countries are each other's largest trading partner...Investment issues have long been a source of tensions in the bilateral relationship because of Canadian concerns about the extent of U.S. ownership of key Canadian industries. Although the United States is now a debtor country, U.S. corporations continue to have substantial operations thoroughout the world, with those in Canada accounting for more than one-quarter of all their holdings in the industrial countries. Over the past decade, however, there has been a remarkable shift in bilateral investment flows. Investment by Canadian firms in U.S. operations has accelerated and the stake of Canadian multinational enterprises in the U.S. economy has risen rapidly relative to the value of U.S. holdings in Canada. This study...documents the changes that have taken place.

Pages : 112
Book Description
From the Foreword: On a per capita basis, Canadians have made more direct investments in the United States than Americans have in Canada. Because of the vast disparity in the overall size of the two economies, however, total U.S. direct investment has reached such a high level in Canada that it is a topic of considerable controversy in the bilateral relationship. This two-part volume focuses upon the economic dimensions of this controversy. In the first part of this volume, many of the issues that have been raised about U.S. direct investment in Canada are analyzed in order to examine how, and with what consequences, such investment affects the degree to which the two economies have become linked. The second part contains a review and analysis of Canada's recent steps to control foreign-direct-investment inflows through the Foreign Investment Review Agency (FIRA).

Pages : 208
Book Description
The first section of this report identifies and discusses the range of policies that governments can implement to directly or indirectly influence inward foreign direct investment (FDI), as well as the behaviour of multinational companies in the host market. The following section sets out public policy criteria against which to evaluate the consequences of Canadian government policies toward inward FDI. The next section reviews the determinants of inward FDI, drawing upon the existing economic and international business literature. The subsequent two sections contain a broad overview of inward FDI patterns to Canada over the post-war period, with preliminary inferences about the influence of public policies on inward FDI flows, and discuss significant policy initiatives directed at influencing either the quantity of quality of inward FDI. These include the Foreign Investment Review Act, the Investment Canada Act, and the North American Free Trade Agreement. This is followed by a section that identifies Canadian government policies directed at restricting inward FDI at the sectoral level (financial services, oil and gas, communications). Welfare economics arguments for and against sectoral foreign ownership restrictions are considered. Original economic models of FDI for Canada are then discussed and case studies are presented of the consequences of foreign ownership and the impacts of foreign ownership policies on the three sectors mentioned above. The final section concludes the report with a summary and a set of policy recommendations.
