Canada - EU Free Trade Agreement

[edit]

I have added an out of date tag to this section. The information seems out of date as it suggests the agreement has stalled and is not moving forward despite what the media says (e.g. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/canada-on-track-to-clinch-eu-free-trade-deal-tories-say/article2098477/).

Map labels

[edit]

The colour labels on the map are mismatched. Canada is shown in brown and the European Union in green. The labels are backwards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.134.242.56 (talk) 00:51, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Treaties

[edit]

Interestingly, the governor general can sign any treaty he/she thinks is a good idea, and they take effect without ratification. So they can sign any trade or other things, like the Lisbon Treaty, but the EU might not like it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.65.155.62 (talk) 04:27, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Distance from the EU

[edit]

The article lists Canada's distance from Ireland and Continental France as its distance from the EU. However, St. Pierre and Miquelon are part of the EU via France (they use the Euro and vote in European elections), and are only 25 km off the coast of Newfoundland. I'm not sure whether it's worthwhile to make this point, though. SteveMcQwark (talk) 20:27, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

List of global cities

[edit]

The list of global cities in Canada includes "Ottawa, Montréal, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Halifax, Québec City". This list notably excludes Toronto. I wasn't able to find any definition of the term "global city", but I'm not able to think of any sense in which those cities could all be global cities and Toronto wouldn't be? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.71.83.221 (talk) 20:12, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
