Supreme Court cross-border beer case raises fears of 'race to the bottom'

Upholding N.B. man's acquittal could have 'serious implications' for provincial powers to protect public

By Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon, CBC News Posted: Dec 07, 2017 7:30 AM AT

If the Supreme Court of Canada upholds the acquittal of a New Brunswick man who was fined after being caught transporting 14 cases of cheap beer and three bottles of liquor home from Quebec, the result will be a "race to the bottom" for provincial standards protecting the public, argues a senior policy analyst for the Canadian Cancer Society.

Rob Cunningham
Rob Cunningham, of the Canadian Cancer Society, says the trial judge's interpretation of the Constitution Act would mean provinces could adopt health, safety, environmental, taxation and other measures regarding products manufactured within their own province, but those measures would not apply to products manufactured in other provinces. (Submitted by the Canadian Cancer Society)

Rob Cunningham, who is an Ottawa-based lawyer, says the Gerard Comeau case has been
 "mischaracterized" by some as being about allowing beer brewed in one province to be sold in another province — the so-called "free the beer" case.

He contends the case could have "serious implications" for the ability of provincial governments to adopt legislation for products such as alcohol, tobacco and marijuana, including controlling the retail distribution systems for such products.

Comeau, a retired NB Power linesman from Tracadie, was stopped at the New Brunswick-Quebec border by RCMP in 2012 and fined $292.50 for violating the New Brunswick Liquor Control Act, which sets a personal importation limit of 12 pints of beer (about 18 cans or bottles), or one bottle of wine or spirits.

He contested the charge and Campbellton provincial court Judge Ronald LeBlanc ruled in April 2016, the liquor restriction was unconstitutional.  Section 121 of the Constitution Act states products from any province "shall … be admitted free into each of the other provinces."

New Brunswick's attorney general is now appealing LeBlanc's decision to the country's highest court, with the second day of hearings set to begin at 9:30 a.m. ET. on Thursday.

On Wednesday, the nine-justice panel heard arguments from New Brunswick, the federal government, seven other provinces and two territories, as well as an intervener group of agriculture supply management associations known jointly as the SM-5 Organizations.

On Thursday, Comeau's lawyers will make their submissions, along with 11 other interveners, ranging from small wineries and beer giants, to a marijuana advocacy group and a consumer organization.

'A single province with a weak standard could have products manufactured and exported to other provinces, regardless of more stringent standards (non-tariff barriers) in those provinces.' - Rob Cunningham, Canadian Cancer Society

Cunningham, who says he'll be in the Ottawa courtroom again on Thursday, supports New Brunswick's position that provinces should have the ability to regulate harmful substances, such as alcohol.

Otherwise, he believes there would be "widespread alcohol smuggling," with lower prices leading to increased consumption.

If LeBlanc's ruling is allowed to stand, it would also "provide a mechanism for companies to get around provincial (and municipal) health, safety, environment and other legislation," Cunningham states in a legal commentary, entitled R v Comeau: Reflections from the Perspective of Health.

"A single province with a weak standard could have products manufactured and exported to other provinces, regardless of more stringent standards (non-tariff barriers) in those provinces," his paper, published on the Canadian Legal Information Institute's (CanLII) website, states.

It could also open the door to legal challenges, such as tobacco companies seeking to overturn provincial bans on menthol cigarettes, and pesticide companies trying to overturn provincial bans on the cosmetic use of pesticides, suggests Cunningham, whose paper is cited in written submissions to the court by lawyers representing New Brunswick as well as interveners Newfoundland and Labrador and Nunavut.

Section 121 'unmistakably clear'

 

Ian Blue
But Comeau's lawyers contend Cunningham's paper, "with some schadenfreude, speculates on the worst possible effects of [LeBlanc's interpretation of Section 121] without any causal connection to the issues before the court."

Even if Cunningham's predictions did occur, the provinces and territories could mitigate "each and every one through true co-operative federalism," Ian Blue, Daria Peregoudova, Arnold Schwisberg and Mikael Bernard argue in their reply factum.

"There may be concern about the work that co-operative federalism requires to resolve these possible effects, such as negotiating an end to competition among provinces for consumers based on price and selection.

"However, concern about such work does not absolve provincial officials from their duty to uphold the Constitution, nor does it allow them to argue against its proper interpretation in order to serve their parochial interests," they write.

"The succinct, plain and mandatory language of Section 121 make its requirements unmistakably clear," according to Comeau's lawyers.

They assert the Fathers of Confederation intended to allow the free movement of items between provinces, unrestrained by any barriers, whether they be tariffs or non-tariff restrictions that make importing and exporting products difficult or costly.

Supreme Court of Canada to hear New Brunswick man's cross-border beer case

Prosecutors appealing Gerard Comeau's acquittal on exceeding importation limits, but stakes much higher

By Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon, CBC News Posted: Dec 06, 2017 7:17 AM AT

Gerard Comeau was all smiles in April 2016, after a judge dismissed a charge against him of bringing too much alcohol into New Brunswick from Quebec, saying it violated free trade provisions in the Constitution.

Five years after a New Brunswick man fought for the right to buy cheaper beer in Quebec and bring it back across the border, his case will be argued Wednesday before the country's highest court with potentially far-reaching implications for interprovincial trade, the economy and consumer choice.

The Supreme Court of Canada will hear from New Brunswick prosecutors, who are appealing Gerard Comeau's acquittal on exceeding the province's personal importation limits for alcohol, as well as his lawyers and lawyers representing the federal government, eight provinces and two territories during the two-day hearing in Ottawa.
'If the court rules in favour of the free, unrestricted movement of goods … many other trade barriers could also disappear.' - Michel Kelly-Gagnon, Montreal Economic Institute
A dozen other interveners, ranging from small wineries and beer giants, to a marijuana advocacy group, and consumer organization, will also make submissions in the "historic" case that centres around the interpretation of a section of the Constitution Act of 1867.

The court's decision could "radically reform the Canadian economy," according to Michel Kelly-Gagnon, president and CEO of the Montreal Economic Institute (MEI), an independent, non-profit research and educational organization, which is also an intervener.

"If the court rules in favour of the free, unrestricted movement of goods between the provinces, this will not only call into question the provincial alcohol monopolies, but many other trade barriers could also disappear," Kelly-Gagnon said in a statement​.

Comeau, a retired NB Power linesman from Tracadie, was stopped at the New Brunswick-Quebec border by the RCMP in 2012 and fined $292.50 for violating the New Brunswick Liquor Control Act.

He had 14 cases of beer, two bottles of whisky and a bottle of liqueur he had purchased in Pointe-a-la-Croix, Que., in his trunk. The maximum amount of alcohol an individual can bring into the province is 12 pints of beer (about 18 cans or bottles), or one bottle of wine or spirits.

Comeau contested the charge and Campbellton provincial court Judge Ronald LeBlanc ruled in April 2016 that the liquor restriction was unconstitutional because Section 121 of the Constitution Act states products from any province "shall … be admitted free into each of the other provinces."

LeBlanc noted in his ruling that his interpretation of the section as permitting the free movement of goods among the provinces without barriers would "have a resounding impact."

New Brunswick prosecutors are now appealing LeBlanc's decision to the Supreme Court of Canada after the province's highest court refused to review the matter.

The prosecutors argue upholding Comeau's acquittal would "propose an end to Canadian federalism as it was originally conceived, has politically evolved and is judicially confirmed" by the Supreme Court itself, which has previously held Section 121 prohibits only "customs duties," or interprovincial tariffs.

No tariffs or non-tariffs


Comeau's lawyers assert the Fathers of Confederation intended to allow the free movement of items between provinces, unrestrained by any barriers, whether they be tariffs or non-tariff restrictions that make importing and exporting products difficult or costly.

The majority of the interveners side with Comeau, seeking fewer barriers, saying it would be better for them, consumers or the country as a whole, with the potential to add an estimated $50 billion to $130 billion to the GDP.

The Dairy Farmers of Canada, Egg Farmers of Canada, Chicken Farmers of Canada, Turkey Farmers of Canada, and the Canadian Hatching Egg Producers acting jointly, however, say Comeau's position "could result in the destruction of supply management — a regulatory system in place for generations, on which the livelihood of thousands of farmers across the country depends."

Each of the interveners will have a maximum of five minutes to present their arguments to the nine-justice panel.

The Supreme Court hasn't had a two-day hearing for nearly three years, according to a court official. That case involved a terror suspect.

IF the SCC TRULY believes that Canada is a united country from sea to sea to sea, rather than looking at the specifics of 'the law' (antiquated as it is), they will employ common sense and rule on JUSTICE.

There is no reason whatsoever - other than money-grubbing gov'ts - that we do not have free trade between provinces. If anyone disagrees, please post your rationale.

If we are to succeed, let alone thrive, we need freedom between us within OUR borders.

And please, it is NOT an issue of gov't losing tax revenue if they drop prices to Quebec's for beer and Ontario's for wine. Perhaps the gov'td could use the BILLIONS they get from us properly instead of wasting it (and don't get me started...)!

I openly state that on a very regular basis, I bring alcohol across provincial borders form lower taxed areas. In fact, I know from experience that the LCBO in Hawkesbury is one of the busiest in Owetariowe, filed with Quebeckers picking up pre-ordered CASES of wine on their way to their second homes.

I defy some zealous police officer to harrass me for transporting a legal product for private consumption - how MUCH I consume is MY business!

New Brunswick needs alcohol revenue to cover social costs of drinking, Supreme Court told

Province appealing Gerard Comeau's acquittal on exceeding importation limits, but stakes are much higher

New Brunswick Crown prosecutor Bill Richards told the Supreme Court alcohol is 'a huge money-maker' for the small province.

New Brunswick's restrictions on the importation of the alcohol are not just about generating revenue, but also fulfilling the province's constitutional obligations, a prosecutor representing the province's attorney general argued to the Supreme Court of Canada on Wednesday.

The attorney general is appealing a 2016 lower court acquittal of Gerard Comeau, whose lawyers successfully argued he had the constitutional right to buy cheaper beer in Quebec and bring it home.

Prosecutor Bill Richards acknowledged alcohol is a "huge money-maker" for the small province.

'The province has a very legitimate interest in raising money through the sale of alcohol and therefore the control of alcohol.' - Bill Richards, N.B. prosecutor

"I'm not shying away from the fact … it would be silly to do so," he told the nine-justice panel hearing two days of arguments about the case that could have far-reaching implications for interprovincial trade, the economy and consumer choice.

But Section 134 of the New Brunswick Liquor Control Act serves a "higher purpose," Richards said.
It enables the province to regulate the distribution of a controlled substance and provides the "necessary" revenue to pay for associated social health and welfare issues, he said.

Richards cited as an example the policing and medical costs that would have ensued if Comeau had gotten into a car accident on his way home from Quebec.

"The province has a very legitimate interest in raising money through the sale of alcohol and therefore the control of alcohol," he said.

Richards took less than an hour to present his arguments — only half of his allotted time.

Lawyers representing the attorneys general of Canada, Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Newfoundland and Labrador, Northwest Territories and the Nunavut minister of justice also made submissions on Wednesday, along with a lawyer representing an intervener group of agriculture supply management associations.

Comeau's lawyers and 11 other interveners, ranging from small wineries and beer giants, to a marijuana advocacy group and a consumer organization, are expected to make submissions Thursday in the historic case that centres around the interpretation of a section of the Constitution Act of 1867.

Comeau, a retired NB Power linesman from Tracadie, was stopped at the New Brunswick-Quebec border by the RCMP in 2012 and fined $292.50 for violating the New Brunswick Liquor Control Act, which sets a personal importation limit of 12 pints of beer (about 18 cans or bottles), or one bottle of wine or spirits.

He contested the charge and Campbellton provincial court Judge Ronald LeBlanc ruled in April 2016 that the liquor restriction was unconstitutional because Section 121 of the Constitution Act states products from any province "shall … be admitted free into each of the other provinces."

New Brunswick prosecutors are now appealing LeBlanc's decision to the Supreme Court of Canada after the province's highest court refused to review the matter.

Could change Canadian economy


The court's decision could "radically reform the Canadian economy," according to Michel Kelly-Gagnon, president and CEO of the Montreal Economic Institute, an independent, non-profit research and educational organization, which is also an intervener.

"If the court rules in favour of the free, unrestricted movement of goods between the provinces, this will not only call into question the provincial alcohol monopolies, but many other trade barriers could also disappear," Kelly-Gagnon said in a statement​.

Ontario MP John Nater, the Conservative critic for interprovincial trade, said he is hopeful the Supreme Court's decision will be "a positive first step" in reducing interprovincial trade barriers.

'It should not be a crime to buy Canadian beer, wine or spirits from another province.' - John Nater, Conservative critic

"Canadians recognize the economic benefits of reducing interprovincial trade barriers. Local businesses and their customers stand to significantly benefit from the outcome of this case,"  he said in a statement.

"It should not be a crime to buy Canadian beer, wine or spirits from another province."
Nater, MP for Perth-Wellington, introduced a private member's motion last month, calling on the federal government to renegotiate the Canadian Free Trade Agreement with the provincial governments.

The agreement signed by Justin Trudeau's Liberal government is "a disappointment," he said, because it fails to "adequately reduce" interprovincial trade barriers and is "filled" with exemptions.

"Instead of creating working groups, the federal government needs to go back to the table and negotiate a deal which significantly reduces interprovincial trade barriers," Nater said.
 
New Brunswick prosecutors argue upholding Comeau's acquittal would "propose an end to Canadian federalism as it was originally conceived, has politically evolved and is judicially confirmed" by the Supreme Court itself, which has previously held Section 121 prohibits only "customs duties," or interprovincial tariffs.

Comeau's lawyers assert the Fathers of Confederation intended to allow the free movement of items between provinces, unrestrained by any barriers, whether they be tariffs or non-tariff restrictions that make importing and exporting products difficult or costly.

The majority of the private interveners side with Comeau, seeking fewer barriers, which they say would be better for them, consumers and the country as a whole, with the potential to add an estimated $50 billion to $130 billion to the gross domestic product.

Regulation not about trade but public safety


Much of the discussion among the attorneys general focused on technical legal arguments and case law. But the lawyers for the two territories talked more about the impact of alcohol on people.
Bradley Patzer said intoxicants are a "complex issue" for the Northwest Territories and the source of social and health stressors.

The "true purpose" of the N.W.T.'s regulatory scheme for alcohol is rooted not in the regulation of trade but rather public health, he said.

The territory has adopted "necessary measures," including increased costs, in an attempt to reduce consumption. It wants to ensure the interpretation of Section 121 does not impact its ability to use effective tools to deal with the "ills" caused by alcohol, he said.

John MacLean, lawyer for Nunavut attorney general
John MacLean said Nunavut's biggest competitor when it comes to alcohol sales is not a winery in B.C. or a brewery in Newfoundland and Labrador but rather the 'bootlegger down the street.' (CBC)

Similarly, John MacLean said there is an "unhealthy relationship" between the people of Nunavut and alcohol.

Alcohol has led to "poor health, including fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, poor educational outcomes, family breakdowns and "definitely contributes" to the high suicide rate, which is 9.5 times the national average and has been declared a crisis by the government.

"For us, it's not about money," he said, noting alcohol is not a significant revenue generator.
Alcohol regulation is not a trade issue for Nunavut, but a public safety and public protection issue, said MacLean.

The Dairy Farmers of Canada, Egg Farmers of Canada, Chicken Farmers of Canada, Turkey Farmers of Canada, and the Canadian Hatching Egg Producers acting jointly, however, say Comeau's position "could result in the destruction of supply management — a regulatory system in place for generations, on which the livelihood of thousands of farmers across the country depends."

The hearing is scheduled to resume at 9:30 a.m. ET on Thursday.

Cross-border booze case gives Supreme Court chance to correct mistake, lawyers argue

Constitution requires interprovincial movement of goods without tariffs or other barriers

By Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon, CBC News Posted: Oct 13, 2017 1:26 PM AT
 
Gerard Comeau was all smiles in April 2016 after a judge dismissed a charge against him of bringing too much alcohol into New Brunswick from Quebec, ruling it violated free trade provisions in the Constitution.

Lawyers for a New Brunswick man who was fined for bringing home a trunkful of cheap booze from Quebec want the Supreme Court of Canada to correct what they say is a long-standing misinterpretation of the Constitution Act of 1867.

Gerard Comeau's offence was that he exceeded provincial importation limits on alcohol.

But his lawyers say Section 121 of the Constitution Act requires that the movement of all items of "growth, produce or manufacture" among provinces be unrestrained by tariff and non-tariff trade barriers alike.

"If a federal or provincial measure interferes with one's ability to transfer goods to another province and discriminates against extra-provincial entities, then it is a trade barrier and therefore impermissible," the lawyers write in arguments filed with the Supreme Court of Canada on Friday.


Comeau, a retired NB Power linesman, was charged in 2012 and fined $292.50 after RCMP stopped him driving home from Quebec with 14 cases of beer and three bottles of liquor in his vehicle.​
New Brunswick's Liquor Control Act sets a personal importation limit of 12 pints of beer or one bottle of liquor or wine.

​But Campbellton provincial court Judge Ronald LeBlanc ruled in April 2016 that the liquor restriction was unconstitutional because Section 121 of the Constitution states products from any province "shall … be admitted free into each of the other provinces."

New Brunswick prosecutors are appealing LeBlanc's decision to the Supreme Court of Canada, with a hearing slated for Dec. 6 and 7.

They contend that upholding Comeau's acquittal would "propose an end to Canadian federalism as it was originally conceived, has politically evolved and is judicially confirmed" by the Supreme Court itself, which has previously held Section 121 prohibits only "customs duties," or interprovincial tariffs.

'By upholding the Comeau interpretation, this Court can remedy a distortion in constitutional law that has worked against this country's economic integration for generations.' - Lawyers for Gerard Comeau

Comeau's lawyers counter that the precedent-setting case — Gold Seal Limited v. the Attorney General of the Province of Alberta in 1921 — has created a "system failure" within Canadian federalism by allowing for non-tariff trade barriers, which make importing and exporting products difficult or costly.

The Gold Seal interpretation "has served as an unwarranted invitation to use non-tariff trade barriers as an instrument of protectionism and has thereby undermined the integration of our national economy," Ian Blue, Arnold Schwisberg and Mikael Bernard state in the defence document.

They argue the Fathers of Confederation changed the wording "admitted free from duty" that was used in older statutes to simply "admitted free" to broaden the meaning and protect interprovincial trade from both tariff and non-tariff barriers.

"By upholding the Comeau interpretation, this Court can remedy [the Gold Seal] distortion in constitutional law that has worked against this country's economic integration for generations," they state.

It could mean the end of provincial monopolies on liquor sales and break down other interprovincial barriers that some studies suggest cost the country between $50 billion and $130 billion in lost GDP every year.

Crown's view 'somewhat apocalyptic'

Comeau's lawyers describe the Crown's vision of the destruction of co-operative federalism, democracy and constitutionalism as we know them as "somewhat apocalyptic."

"Canadian business and the Canadian economy are sufficiently dynamic, innovative and flexible to prosper and grow under such a rule," they argue.

The lawyers also take issue with the Crown's suggestion the Comeau interpretation would put Canada's supply management system in jeopardy.

They acknowledge it might require changes to existing restrictions to allow the sale of butter, cheese, yogurt, chicken, eggs and turkey from one province to another.

"It will not, however, affect import controls needed to allow the supply system management to function properly nor will it result in any new international trade agreement," they state.

'Enough is enough'

 

Howard Anglin, executive director, Canadian Constitution Foundation
Howard Anglin, executive director of the Canadian Constitution Foundation, says Gerard Comeau's lawyers' submissions to the Supreme Court are largely the same arguments that won at trial. (CBC)

Howard Anglin, executive director of the Canadian Constitution Foundation, which has been supporting Comeau's legal fight from the beginning, said the case boils down to deciding whether Canada is "one economic unit as a country," like the United States and "most other federations."

"Or are we going to continue to allow these provincial barriers to trade, which have grown up and cluttered the legal and economic landscape for the last 150 years, to persist?"

"The intent of the Fathers of Confederation, embodied in the clear language of the Constitution that they drafted, requires that provinces allow goods to be freely traded and moved across provincial borders," said Anglin.

"For almost a century, due to, in this case anachronistic prohibition-era laws, that hasn't been the case," he said.

"And it took one man, Gerard Comeau standing up and saying, 'That doesn't make sense. Enough is enough,' and to take on the provinces."

12 interveners


The wide range of businesses, organizations and associations from across the country acting as interveners in the appeal underlines how broad the implications of the decision could be.

The Supreme Court has granted intervener status to all 12 applicants, some of which indicate they're acting on behalf of dozens of others.

Each will be permitted to file written arguments not exceeding 10 pages before Nov. 21 and present oral arguments not exceeding five minutes at the hearing in Ottawa, the court ruled this week.

The majority of the interveners are industry-related, ranging from small wineries to beer giants. They are seeking freer interprovincial trade.

Other applicants, including a marijuana advocacy group, business and consumer organizations, a courier service, a think tank and agriculture supply management associations, contend the case is about much more than provincial monopolies on alcohol and could have far-reaching constitutional and economic implications.

None of the interveners will be entitled to "raise new issues or to adduce further evidence or otherwise to supplement the record of the parties," the Supreme Court ruled.

The attorneys general of Canada, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Newfoundland and Labrador, Northwest Territories and the Nunavut minister of Justice have also been granted permission to present oral arguments not exceeding 10 minutes at the hearing.

They previously filed notices of intervention and are automatically granted the right to make submissions on the constitutional issue.

The successful intervener applicants include:

  • Liquidity Wines Ltd., Painted Rock Estate Winery Ltd., 50th Parallel Estate Limited Partnership, Okanagan Crush Pad Winery Ltd., and Noble Ridge Vineyard and Winery Limited Partnership.
  • Artisan Ales Consulting Inc.
  • Canadian Vintners Association.
  • Association of Canadian Distillers, operating as Spirits Canada.
  • Canada's National Brewers, advocates for Canada's largest and oldest brewers, Molson and Labatt.
  • Alberta Small Brewers Association.
  • Cannabis Culture.
  • Consumers Council of Canada.
  • Canadian Chamber of Commerce and Canadian Federation of Independent Business.
  • The Dairy Farmers of Canada, Egg Farmers of Canada, Chicken Farmers of Canada, Turkey Farmers of Canada, and the Canadian Hatching Egg Producers.
  • Federal Express Canada.

We treat ourselves as if we're another country when it comes to simple things like transporting wine and beer over our provincial borders. These laws are so antiquated and need to brought into the 21st century.

@Joseph Cluster I don't drink beer nd very little wine However ask yourself why the lawyers Mikael Bernard, Jeff Mockler and his boss Serge Rousselle won't discuss this political nonsense with me

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/alcohol-border-new-brunswick-supreme-court-comeau-1.3872524

"Section 121 of the 1867 Constitution states products from any province "shall ... be admitted free into each of the other provinces."

In October, the appeal court did not give any reasons why it would not hear the case.

The Supreme Court receives about 600 applications for leave to appeal each year. Only about 80 are granted.

The federal Conservatives had called on the Trudeau government in May to refer the Comeau case to the Supreme Court of Canada.

Denis Lebel, the deputy leader of the Official Opposition, and Dan Albas, the interprovincial trade critic, suggested the Supreme Court "should also comment on which products, jurisdictions and types of barriers are covered by the Comeau ruling."

But Navdeep Bains, the federal Minister of innovation, science and economic development, has said he doesn't believe the government needs to "pursue these matters through the court system."

Since November, Ottawa has seen the most passionate defence of free trade from a non-conservative party in more than a century, with the prime minister and his cabinet taking every opportunity to persuade the new Trump administration to rethink its plans, or at least spare Canada.

Speaking last month in Berlin – but also over the crowd's heads to an audience in Washington – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau declared that, "we, collectively, value trade, and the promise of prosperity for all our citizens that comes with it."

Why? Because, "at the end of the day, by making it easier to buy and sell products, we can expand opportunities for our businesses."

Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland has long touted the benefits of free trade. (Andrew Harnik/Associated Press)

Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland has vowed that Canada will stand against a "rising protectionist tide in many countries." This is consistent with her belief, stated as far back as 2014, that "if we want our middle class to be prosperous — which is the core of our agenda — having trade deals with the world is absolutely essential."

Not to be left out, Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne chimed in that "we need to make sure that our neighbours understand the mutual benefits of Canada-U.S. trade and specifically Ontario-U.S. trade." Alberta Premier Rachel Notley went one better, actually flying to Washington to make the same case in person.

The three-part message has been relentless: trade is a win-win proposition, protectionism makes us all poorer and it's up to Canada to convince the world of that. Or, as newly-appointed International Trade Minister Francois-Phillippe Champagne put it: "We're at a point in history where we have to argue for the advantages of international trade, and that's where Canada has distinguished itself."

Longtime Canadian position


It's not a new message. In fact, it is so old that Trudeau and the premiers could have cribbed their talking points from the Fathers of Confederation. Speaking in 1865, in the face of rising American protectionism, George Brown declared: "I go heartily for the union, because it will throw down the barriers of trade and give us the control of a market of four millions of people." The next year, the United States repudiated the free-trading Reciprocity Treaty with the British North American colonies. Two years later, Confederation became a reality.

As we celebrate 150 years of Confederation, Brown's words are a good reminder that Canada was borne out of a desire not just for free trade, but specifically for free-trade among the provinces of the newly confederated country as a buffer against occasional foreign protectionist winds. In the intervening years, we seem to have forgotten that if free trade between Canada and other countries — which we cannot always control — is an economic boon, surely the same reasoning still applies perforce to trade within Canada, which we can control.


A recent study by economists Trevor Tombe and Lukas Albrecht estimated the annual benefits of eliminating trade barriers among the provinces at between $50 billion and $130 billion, or $7,500 per Canadian household per year. Where is the political outrage?

Where, in his Berlin speech, was Trudeau's denunciation of provincial liquor monopolies and dairy boards? Or of the hundreds of non-tariff trade barriers that make selling or transporting goods between Canada's balkanized provincial markets much more expensive, and sometimes impossible?

Where were the kind words for Gérard Comeau, who was fined $293 for buying beer in Quebec and driving it home to New Brunswick, and whose case has now been appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada?

Canadian Free Trade Agreement


Last July, Canada's premiers concluded their meeting in Whitehorse with the announcement that they had reached a "historic" agreement-in-principle to replace the feeble and exception-riddled Agreement on Internal Trade with a new "Canadian Free Trade Agreement." Since then, there have few updates and no details. The original communiqué, which spoke dubiously of "exclusions" for favoured industries, left out free trade in alcohol altogether and punted it to a "working group" that, to the knowledge of my contacts in the industry, has yet to meet. Hardly cause for optimism.

Any improvement on the status quo would be welcome, but it is frustrating that our founding national promise of interprovincial trade is still a topic for parochial horse-trading and negotiation. If Trudeau and the premiers truly believe what they say about the benefits of free trade when lecturing Donald Trump, they should lead by example and dismantle, once and for all, the patchwork of protectionist laws and regulations in their own backyard.

Howard Anglin is the executive director of the Canadian Constitution Foundation, a registered charity that is supporting Gérard Comeau's constitutional challenge to New Brunswick's restrictions on interprovincial trade.

> DAVID RAYMOND AMOS

>
> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>
> Defendant
>
> ORDER
>
> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
> December 14, 2015)
>
> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
> in its entirety.
>
> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a

> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,

> he stated:
>
> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
> You are your brother’s keeper.
>
> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
> Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
> Police.
>
> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.
>
>
> AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the Administrator of
> the Court schedule another date for the hearing of the motion.  There
> is no order as to costs.
