Protecting provincial jurisdiction

If passed, the International Agreements Act would protect areas of provincial jurisdiction in international agreements and treaties signed by the federal government. This legislation would make it clear that these international agreements are only binding in Alberta if implemented under provincial law.

This would replace the current International Trade and Investments Agreement Act that allows the government to declare approval of international trade and investment agreements.
