The Canada-U.S. Regulatory Cooperation Council Stakeholder Forum

From Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat

The Regulatory Cooperation Council (RCC) Stakeholder Forum brings together senior regulatory officials, industry, and other members of the public from both sides of the U.S-Canada border. Canadian and U.S. regulators will provide progress reports on existing regulatory cooperation efforts and solicit public input on new opportunities for regulatory cooperation. The RCC promotes economic growth, innovation, competitiveness, and job creation through the elimination of unnecessary regulatory differences between our two countries.
