4 Ω97æSEC. 637. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING

5 CANADA’S RESTRICTIONS ON IMPORTS OF UNITED

6 STATES CHICKENS.

7 (a) FINDINGS.—The Senate makes the following find8 ings:

9 (1) The United States chicken industry is a

10 highly competitive and growing industry which em11 ploys over 200,000 people, has over 25,000 family

12 farms, and has significant production in over 28

13 States.

14 (2) United States exports of chickens grew by 32

15 percent in volume in 1993 and exports are increas16 ingly important to the continued economic vitality of

17 the chicken industry.

18 (3) Canada’s chicken supply management system

19 has severely limited the importation of United States

20 chickens to Canada since it was imposed over 15

21 years ago, and its elimination would lead to between

22 $350,000,000 and $700,000,000 in new exports to

23 Canada and between 7,000 and 14,000 new jobs in

24 the United States.
145

HR 4539 PP1S

1 (4) Canada’s chicken supply management system

2 protects Canadian chicken growers while seriously

3 hurting both United States and Canadian food proc4 essors, retailers, and consumers.

5 (5) The United States and Canada have a free

6 trade agreement which calls for the elimination of all

7 tariffs and prohibits the imposition of new tariffs on

8 any goods traded bilaterally.

9 (6) The goals of the Uruguay Round Agreement

10 on Agriculture are to liberalize and expand trade in

11 agriculture and to eliminate distortions to such trade.

12 (7) Canada refused to negotiate the issue of

13 elimination of its severe trade restrictions on the im14 portation of United States chickens as part of the

15 North American Free Trade Agreement (hereafter re16 ferred to as ‘‘NAFTA’’) because the issue was part of

17 the global trade negotiations under the Uruguay

18 Round.

19 (8) The Uruguay Round has now concluded and

20 the former and current United States Trade Rep21 resentative, as well as other key cabinet-level officials,

22 have stated that Canada will be in violation of its

23 NAFTA obligations if it does not eliminate its newly

24 imposed tariffs on chickens.
146

HR 4539 PP1S

1 (9) The United States chicken industry has wait2 ed patiently for access to Canadian markets, which

3 would be the United States largest export market for

4 chickens if it were fully open.

5 (10) NAFTA should lead to free and completely

6 open trade for the chicken industry between the Unit7 ed States and Canada, as it will between the United

8 States and Mexico.

9 (11) The United States and Canada are cur10 rently holding discussions to resolve this and other bi11 lateral agricultural matters.

12 (b) SENSE OF THE SENATE.—It is the sense of the Sen13 ate that—

14 (1) the United States should reserve all current

15 and future rights to bring Canada into compliance

16 with its tariff obligations under NAFTA, including

17 the use of bilateral or multilateral dispute settlement

18 proceedings; and

19 (2) any agreement that is negotiated between the

20 United States and Canada on chickens should lead

21 to—

22 (A) substantial and immediate new market

23 access opportunities for United States chicken

24 exports in excess of the levels that have already

25 been achieved; and
147

HR 4539 PP1S

1 (B) a commitment from Canada before the

2 effective date of the Uruguay Round Agreements

3 which—

4 (i) establishes a timeframe for the

5 elimination of all of Canada’s tariffs on

6 chickens; and

7 (ii) provides for growth in market ac8 cess levels for United States chicken exports

9 to Canada during the period such tariffs

10 are being phased out.
