91ÖÆƬ³§

Countries around the world are reshaping the global economy as they rethink how they cooperate and compete, disrupting trade relationships that once seemed stable. These shifts create a more complex environment for Canada, in which economic choices and long-term security interact in new ways, particularly when it comes to our relationship with the United States.

At the Queen 91ÖÆƬ³§ ’s Micro Summit: What's Canada's Next Move, Dr. Nicolas Lamp (Law) examined how today 91ÖÆƬ³§ ’s global trade landscape has fractured into a far more complicated system. He that can help Canada navigate in this new environment and pinpoint the choices that will influence its economic future.

The framework centres on four guiding questions that show how global change shapes Canada 91ÖÆƬ³§ ’s trade policy choices. They examine the purpose of regulating trade, which partners Canada can rely on, where it should concentrate its economic strengths, and which tools advance those priorities. Together, these questions give Canada a clearer path through a world that no longer moves according to a single set of expectations.

Dr. Lamp brings deep experience in global trade to his work. Before joining Queen 91ÖÆƬ³§ ’s, he served at the World Trade Organization as a dispute settlement lawyer on major trade appeals. He now teaches in the Faculty of Law and the School of Policy Studies and directs the Queen 91ÖÆƬ³§ ’s Institute on Trade Policy, where he studies how political and economic forces guide national decisions in a changing global environment.
