Lawyer Dan Ujczo was recently quoted in the article “U.S. unlikely to accept NAFTA gender chapter with teeth: trade experts,” written by The Canadian Press and published by CBC News.
Canada is seeking to include a chapter on gender equality to the new NAFTA agreement. Mr. Ujczo commented that there is some concern a chapter on gender could have unintended consequences.
“Could some of these broadly worded provisions then be used to attack otherwise legitimate federal and state laws in the U.S.?” said Mr. Ujczo.
That is why he said he thinks Canada will need to put significant effort into reassuring the U.S. administration of President Donald Trump the gender chapter will not be enforceable.
