The spread of digital network technologies, the Internet in particular, is rapidly transforming commercial relationships and economic opportunities. Faster and easier exchange of global information should intensify competition, foster market economies, expand choice and opportunity, improve productivity, and raise global education levels and living standards.
Canada, the United States, and other nations must facilitate the deployment and acceptance of these network technologies in order to reap the substantial gains they offer. This cross-border dialogue focuses on key e-commerce policy issues that will shape the future not only for the digital economy, but for virtually all forms of economic activity.
