Former CBC and BBC Radio Host Mary Ambrose sits down with Patrick Leblond, a Senior Fellow with the Centre for International Governance Innovation, for a conversation about the NAFTA renegotiations and e-commerce.
NAFTA covers auto parts, reduced tariffs on textiles and lots of other trade issues, but it doesn’t mention online shopping. Because when NAFTA was created in 1994, there was no online shopping. A year after the ink was dry on the NAFTA agreement, Amazon started shipping books and today e-commerce is a multi-billion dollar industry.
Will e-commerce and online security get into the NAFTA discussion and will they address it? Patrick Leblond shares his thoughts in this episode of the CIGI Podcast.

The Curse of the Vulture: Martin Guzman on the Implications of Argentina's Debt Crisis
Martin Guzman, a senior fellow with the Centre for International Governance Innovation, talks about the lasting implications of Argentina's debt crisis and how vulture funds prolonged the country's woes. The country’s 2001 default was followed by a complex debt restructuring that included a long legal dispute with so-called vulture funds and other holdout creditors. The full resolution of the sovereign default took almost 15 years. Martin talks about the strategies followed by bondholders, and analyzes the implications of the default resolution for the functioning of sovereign lending markets.
