Abstract
October 24, 2016 – CETA’s investment dispute provisions have become a lightning rod for critics of the trade pact within Europe, but in its current form, the CETA text represents a significant improvement from past trade and investment deals according to a new report from the C.D. Howe Institute. In “Investor-state Dispute Settlement in CETA: Is it the Gold Standard?,” Tony VanDuzer concludes that CETA provisions address many of the critical objections emanating from within European Union (EU) states.
