way, as is evidenced today by all the examples we ’ ve heard, by all the institutions present, and by all the inspiring speakers and participants. and once we have reached that goal of all finance being sustainable, we will have ensured a better horizon for our children and their children. a horizon - a future! - that to our children is not tragic, but positive and bright. we will have overcome the tragedy of the horizon. that “ the last syllable of recorded time ” be not the word “ tragedy ”. so let us together ensure that horizons from this day will no longer be associated with tragedy, but instead with a bright, green, sustainable future. let the future of finance be that of financing the future! thank you.

and about 30 per cent of mexico ’ s. we can talk about how many times a single auto part might cross a national border during the assembly process. and we can talk about the intricate supply chains that have been developed over more than 50 years. or, we can show how building a single, integrated north american auto industry has led to jobs in all three countries. the automotive parts manufacturers ’ association has done a good job putting the numbers together. in canada, 81, 000 people are employed in the automotive supply sector, by both canadian and foreign - owned firms. those canadian companies operate 150 plants in the united states, employing almost 43, 000 american workers, and 120 plants in mexico, providing jobs for roughly the same number of workers there. it is hard to imagine how interfering with open trade or implementing other protectionist policies would benefit these people and their families. it would be helpful to hear many more examples from other industries. policy - makers, business leaders and labour leaders all have a role to play in showing how open trade has meant jobs for workers across north america and around the world. nobody can explain the importance of trade to an employee better than their employer. regardless of what evolves, though, there is no shortage of potential sources of growth for both of our economies. the first order of business should be to keep working on opening trade elsewhere in the world. in this respect, canada has been playing catch - up to mexico, which has successfully negotiated access to many more markets than canada. the numbers tell a clear story. as of today, canada has free trade agreements in force with 15 countries that represent about 22 per cent of global gdp. mexico has agreements in force with 47 countries that represent 44 per cent of global gdp. but if you take the united states out of the picture, canada is left with free access to just 6 per cent of the world economy, compared with 28 per cent for mexico. the good news for canada is that this gap will close significantly once the agreement between canada and the european union comes into effect. it is unfortunate that the trans - pacific partnership, with its ground - breaking coverage of intellectual property and services, has been shelved for now. still, the work that was put into those areas could prove useful for both canada and mexico in future trade agreements. the bottom line is there is still scope for both countries to improve access to markets outside of north america. 4 / 5 bis central bankers'speeches within canada, we had the positive news
