A legislative summary is currently being prepared for this bill by the Parliamentary Information and Research Service of the Library of Parliament. Meanwhile, the following executive summary is available. On 1 December 2008, the Minister of International Trade and Minister of the Asia-Pacific Gateway introduced Bill C-2, An Act to implement the Free Trade Agreement between Canada and the States of the European Free Trade Association (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland), the Agreement on Agriculture between Canada and the Republic of Iceland, the Agreement on Agriculture between Canada and the Kingdom of Norway and the Agreement on Agriculture between Canada and the Swiss Confederation, in the House of Commons and it was given first reading. Bill C-2 implements four treaties and their respective annexes signed by Canada. The first treaty implemented through the bill is a multilateral free trade agreement between Canada and the member states of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), i.e., Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland. The other, bilateral treaties deal specifically with trade in agriculture. They involve Canada and the same EFTA states, with the exception of Liechtenstein. Bill C-2 implements these four treaties through a set of provisions that will form the core of a stand-alone piece of legislation, the Canada–EFTA Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act. The Canada–EFTA and the bilateral agreements focus exclusively on the liberalization of trade in goods. They do not deal with other forms of economic exchange, such as trade in services or foreign investments. Bill C-2 also contains amendments to three existing pieces of legislation, i.e., the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, the Customs Act and the Customs Tariff.
