An agreement signed by all Canadian provinces, territories, and the federal government will eliminate interprovincial trade barriers on many goods, excluding food and alcohol, starting in December.

While the agreement is a significant step, there are hopes to expand it to include food and alcohol in the future. Critics, however, argue that the focus on trade barriers overlooks more pressing issues like transportation costs.
