Dispute Resolution

An integral part of the Agreement is its dispute resolution process whereby Parties undertake to resolve disputes in a conciliatory, cooperative and harmonious manner. Accordingly, the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA) provides for progressive steps in its dispute avoidance and resolution processes under Chapter Ten.

As a requirement of the dispute resolution procedures, the Secretariat tracks the progress of complaints and publishes reports issued by a Presiding Body. All such reports are added to this site as soon as they become publicly available.
