producers and consumers have been adversely 

 effected by CFTA, yet the damage suffered is 

 only the tip of the iceberg if NAFTA or GATT 

 are ratified as they now stand. America can do 

 better. American farmers cannot afford to do 

 any worse. 



IN CONCLUSION: 



• In the area of wheat and barley, Canada 

 has dramatically increased exports of agricultural 

 commodities to the U.S. to the point where it 

 could be considered dumping. 



• Canada has used the binational panel to 

 its advantage wherever possible.. 



• Canada is using the agreer. nt to export 

 commodities which it does not produce (peanuts) 

 to the VS. 



• High levels of Canadian imports cut into 

 the market share of other VS. trading partners. 



• The importation of large amounts of 

 agricultural commodities is detrimental to U.S. 

 farm prices and to the well-being of U.S. 

 farmers. 



• The harmful effects of the CFTA should 

 not be repeated in subsequent agreements.
