Trade agreements coverage summary
Trade agreements are an important factor to consider in procurement. Whether or not these trade agreements apply depends on the total dollar value (in Canadian funds and including taxes) and type of commodity (good or service) being procured.
The following trade agreements are applicable to procurement by the Canadian Grain Commission:
- Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA)
- Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA)
- North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
- Canada-Chile Free Trade Agreement
- Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP)
The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), which will replace NAFTA, is not currently in effect.
The number of days a tender is posted for depends on the dollar value of the good or service being procured. For more information about tender periods, contact us.
For information about how trade agreements affect procurement for federal government departments, consult the Treasury Board Secretariat’s Contracting Policy trade agreements thresholds.
