Government's narrative on progress
The Trade Resources Allocation Determination (TRAD) process was developed in response to the changing needs of Canadian business to ensure that trade resources are located in areas of opportunity for Canadian companies. TRAD incorporates macroeconomics indicators, client demand and operational constraints. Regions that generate positive TRAD results have become priorities for additional resources.
