This book was released on 1911 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The trucking industries in Canada and the United States have been deregulated on national bases for many years now. Transborder deregulation, however, has not yet been achieved; even in the midst of trade agreements designed to allow for greater ease in moving goods across the Canada-U.S. border. The existence of cabotage regulations, which limit the transport activity of a foreign truck driver and his tractor-trailer while on domestic soil, is a major impediment to transborder deregulation. Chapter 1 provides a history of trucking regulation and deregulation in Canada and the United States along with a discussion concerning how the Canada-U.S. Trade Agreement and the North American Free Trade Agreement have brought the issue of transborder trucking to the fore. Cabotage regulations are carefully outlined and evaluated while the recent "reforms" to these regulations are appraised in the light of potential efficiency gains to transborder truckers. Because of the complicated nature of these regulations, a survey of Canadian trucking firms is provided in order to gauge understanding, compliance and attitudes toward reform. The results obtained impact on the economic theory of regulation that, in general, states that firms understand, and even influence, the body of regulations under which they operate. In chapter 2, a model of the for-hire trucking industry is developed in order to establish the welfare gain accruing from deregulation. The model is also used to show the further welfare gain that is expected to arise from cabotage reform. A supply-side approach is developed using the for-hire industry combined with a representaive trucking firm. The demand-side is developed combining the fronthaul and backhaul markets so that inferences with respect to cabotage reform may be had. The combined supply and demand models provide a useful means for comparing the welfare effects of regulatory change. The implications of the complete model are extended, in chapter 3, by use of.

Book excerpt: Canada and the United States exchange the world's highest level of bilateral trade, valued at $1.4 billion a day. Two-thirds of this trade travels on trucks. Heavy Traffic examines the way in which the regulatory reform of American and Canadian trucking, coupled with free trade, has internationalized this vital industry. Before deregulation, restrictive entry rules had fostered two separate national highway transportation markets, and most international traffic had to be exchanged at the border. When the United States deregulated first, the imbalance between its opened market and Canada's still-restricted one produced a surprisingly difficult bilateral dispute. American deregulation was motivated by domestic incentives, but the subsequent Canadian deregulation blended domestic incentives with transborder rate comparisons and concerns about trade competitiveness. Daniel Madar shows that deregulation created a de facto regime of free trade in trucking services. Removing regulatory barriers has enabled Canadian and American carriers to follow the expansion of transborder traffic that began with the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement and continues with NAFTA. The services available with deregulated trucking have also supported sweeping changes in industrial logistics. As transborder traffic has surged, the two countries' carriers -- from billion-dollar corporations to family firms -- have exploited the latitude provided by deregulation. This book is a valuable contribution to our understanding of the policy processes and economic conditions that led to trucking deregulation. As a study in public policy formation and the international effects of reform, it will be of interest to students and scholars of political economy, international relations, and transportation.

Book excerpt: Studies have indicated that procedures followed by canadian and u.s. customs officials have an impact on the productivity of transborder trucking operations. these impacts result from time delays incurred during the procedure, and from the necessity of loading goods in such a way as to facilitate the inspection process. this paper describes the customs procedures governing transborder trucking, and examines the potential impact of two major changes in transportation and trade policy: the current deregulation of the trucking industry and the pending free trade agreement between canada and the united states. for the covering abstract of the conference see irrd 807127.

Book excerpt: For industries such as agriculture where freight costs are a relatively high proportion of the finished product value, transportation can provide a significant level of protection for domestic producers, or stand as a major barrier to export market development. the paper begins with a brief synopsis of the main transport regulations and additional costs or charges associated with transborder trucking of agricultural products. a survey is presented which analyses the costs and importance of these various measures from the perspectives of cnadian and u.s. carriers which are active in transborder trade. finally, a comparison of freight rates is used to estimate the protection created by these institutional factors for a range of commodities which are traded between canada and the united states. for the covering abstract of the conference, see irrd 807127.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heightened awareness of North America's vulnerability to terrorism in the aftermath of 9/11 has precipitated a crisis for transport suppliers and cargo owners, one that jeopardizes economic prosperity. Mary Brooks examines one industry sector of the North American economic relationship - transportation services - from the perspectives of transport supplier, cargo owner and policymaker. Ensuring security in international transportation without compromising operational effectiveness is a delicate balancing act. There is concern that economic benefits from NAFTA and the Canada-US Trade Agreement may have been diminished by the current security focus of American officials. The author addresses these concerns, beginning with a history of NAFTA and subsequent continental economic integration. Succeeding chapters provide an economic and regulatory assessment of the North American transport network, and examine key issues for both cargo interests and surface transport suppliers. The issues of perimeter security and growing regionalization are also explored. The author closes with a discussion of North America's transportation future under the Security and Prosperity Partnership. The unique insights of North American Freight Transportation will be of interest to policymakers, those in the transport sector, as well as researchers and practitioners in political science and trade economics.

Download or read book A Comparison of Trucking Productivity in Canada and the United States, 1978-88 written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comparison of the historic and current productivity performance of the Canadian and United States for-hire trucking industries, and discussion of the implications for competition for transborder traffic. The report discuses the creation of a reasonably comparable set of data from disparate sources in Canada and the U.S., then develops time series of key productivity indicators for both countries from 1978-88, assessing differences in national and sectoral performance within each country. The evolution of key input prices is considered to trace the efficacy of both productivity changes and other factors on costs/rates. The performance of the national trucking industries of Canada and the U.S. are described and the implications of this for transborder competition are considered. The study estimates the magnitude of transborder trucking, in particular historic growth and recent (1988) traffic structure for Canadian-domiciled carriers, and considers the possible impact of truck weight and dimension regulations, economic regulation, cabotage rules, truck regulations such as safety, trucking regulations such as dangerous goods, other regulations such as labour, truck technology, and freight flows on future domestic and transborder productivity and competitiveness.
