The Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Japan (CCCJ) and the Keidanren's Committee on Canada express our great appreciation for the release of the Report of the Joint Study カジノシークレット 出金 時間e Possibility of a Canada-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA). The report is a positive development and finds sufficient common ground to launch negotiations for an EPA between Canada and Japan.
Both the CCCJ and the Keidanren's Committee on Canada strongly urge the Canadian and Japanese governments to launch negotiations towards a Canada-Japan EPA as soon as possible and at the highest levels of government. We urge the prime ministers of Canada and Japan to seize the earliest opportunity for a face to face meeting and joint announcement of this historic development in our nations' bilateral relationship.
A Canada-Japan EPA will serve to further invigorate trade and market access to the mutual benefit of both nations. Given the fact that our two countries share fundamental common values - such as democracy, market economy and the rule of law - and that both countries are highly advanced industrially and members of the G8, we strongly urge our respective governments to aim to realize a comprehensive and high-level EPA.
Promoting the development of commerce between Canada and Japan since 1975, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Japan (CCCJ) is a private sector, not-for-profit business organization serving its members through communications, networking and advocacy. Representing some 33 business sectors, the CCCJ is a member-driven, member-focused organization and is the longest serving Canadian Chamber in Asia with over 275 members.
