ECON 3322 Saint Mary’s University Canada Trade Deal Problems Research Paper

topic: What problems does a country the size of Canada encounter in negotiating a trade deal with much larger partners such as the U.S. and Mexico?

It should be about 2500 to 3000 words long and where appropriate should be illustrated with tables and charts. It should be properly supported by appropriate citations—although the style of citation is less important than evidence that the topic was appropriately researched.

The purpose of the paper is NOT simply to provide a survey of literature (although that is appropriate in order to demonstrate awareness of the range of academic opinion). Rather it is an opportunity for students to demonstrate that they have researched the topic and formed a view that they are prepared to advance and defend—I am not looking for dogmatic extreme opinion, just a balanced and defensible view.

For academic research remember that you have access to JSTOR—the largest repository of academic literature.
