APPENDIX 4: GLOSSARY

Agriculture and Agri-food Canada’s Agricultural Policy Framework (APF): A strategy that aims to position Canada as the world leader in food safety, innovation and environmen-tally responsible agricultural production.

Allocative efficiency: Allocative efficiency is improved if production is shifted to lower-cost producers and/or if consumers gain access to lower-cost goods. If the cost to the environment of this production is adequately reflected in the price (e.g., through appropriate environmental regulation), and if allocative efficiency improves globally, one would expect the overall quality of the global environment to improve due to the more effi-cient allocation of resources.

Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation forum (APEC): An intergovernmental forum dedi-cated to promoting free trade and investment, economic growth and development, and coop-eration in the Asia-Pacific region. It operates on the basis of non-binding commitments and open dialogue.

APEC Climate Centre (APCC): Research centre whose goal is to facilitate the sharing of high-cost climate data and information, to build capacity in prediction and in sustainable so-cial and economic applications of climate information, and accelerate and extend socio-economic innovation.

APEC Climate Network (APCN): Aims to establish a climate network for the exchange of real-time climate information among APEC member economies and to reduce natural disas-ters related to unusual climate in the Asian-Pacific region by enhancing emergency prepared-ness and capacity building in climate monitoring.

Asia Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate (APP): Founding partners Australia, China, India, Japan, Republic of Korea, and the United States have agreed to work together and with private-sector partners to meet goals for energy security, national air pollu-tion reduction, and climate change in ways that promote sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction. The Partnership will focus on expanding investment and trade in cleaner energy technologies, goods and services in key market sectors.

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE): or “Mad Cow Disease”: A degenerative disease of the central nervous system found in cattle.

Canadian direct investment abroad (CDIA): Canadian capital that is invested in foreign resources.

Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD): One of the key agreements adopted at the Earth Summit in Rio in 1992. This pact among the vast majority of the world’s governments sets out commitments for maintaining the world’s ecological underpinnings as we go about the business of economic development. The Convention establishes three main goals: the con-servation of biological diversity, the sustainable use of its components, and the fair and equi-table sharing of the benefits from the use of genetic resources.

Computable general equilibrium (CGE): A class of economic model that seeks to explain the economic-wide changes in production, consumption, and price. It uses actual economic data to estimate how an economy might react to changes in policy or other external factors. It is widely used to analyze the aggregate welfare and distributional impacts of policies whose effects may be transmitted through multiple markets, or different policy instruments. A CGE model usually consists of equations describing economic behaviour of economic agents and a database that is consistent with the model equations.

Economic modelling simulation: To simulate the impact of policy changes on the economy using economic models.

Environmental impact assessment: Refers to the environmental assessment of projects pur-suant to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA), and describes the process undertaken to predict the environmental effects of proposed initiatives before they are carried out. Project-level environmental assessment identifies possible environmental effects, pro-poses measures to mitigate adverse effects, and predicts whether there will be significant ad-verse environmental effects, even after the mitigation is implemented.

Ethylene glycol (EG): A clear, colourless, odourless liquid with a syrup-like consistency. Globally, approximately two thirds of ethylene glycol is used as a chemical intermediate in the manufacture of polyesters for fibres, films, bottles, etc., with a further one quarter used as an antifreeze in engine coolants. Ethylene glycol is also used for runway de-icing (the main source of high local concentrations in the environment), as plasticizer for adhesives, as sof-tener for cellulose film, as glycoborates in electrolytic condensers, as glycol dinitrate in ex-plosives, for various heat transfer applications, as humectant in inks, as antifreeze and plasti-cizer in paints.

Export and Import of Hazardous Wastes Regulations (EIHWR): Regulations whose main goal is to implement a control system for transboundary movements of hazardous waste and hazardous recyclable materials. The Regulations include requirements for prior notifica-tion and consent of the importing and transit jurisdictions; the existence of contracts between importers and exporters; insurance for Canadian importers and exporters and their carriers; and tracking of the movement from its point of origin to its final destination through the use of manifests and certificates of recycling/disposal.

Foreign direct investment: Investing directly in production in another country, either by establishing an enterprise, expanding operation of its existing business, or acquiring owner-ship or control of an existing enterprise.

Free trade area: A designated group of countries that have agreed to eliminate tariffs, quo-tas and preferences on most (if not all) goods between them.

General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS): The creation of the GATS was one of the landmark achievements of the Uruguay Round, whose results entered into force in Janu-ary 1995. The GATS was inspired by essentially the same objectives as its counterpart in merchandise trade, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT): creating a credible and reliable system of international trade rules; ensuring fair and equitable treatment of all participants (principle of non-discrimination); stimulating economic activity through guaran-teed policy bindings; and promoting trade and development through progressive liberaliza-tion.

General Preferential Tariff (GPT): During the 1970s, most industrialized countries insti-tuted tariff preferences (referred to as the Generalized System of Tariff Preferences (or GSP) for developing countries to encourage their economic growth through increased trade. On July 1, 1974, Canada introduced its version of the GSP called the General Preferential Tariff (GPT).

Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP): A global network of researchers and policy mak-ers conducting quantitative analysis of international policy issues using a CGE model devel-oped by Purdue University.

Greenhouse gas (GHG): Components of the atmosphere that contribute to the greenhouse effect. Some greenhouse gases occur naturally in the atmosphere, while others result from human activities such as burning of fossil fuels such as coal. Greenhouse gases include water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone.

Gross domestic product (GDP): The market value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time. It is also considered the sum of value added at every stage of production of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given period of time.

Information and communications technology (ICT): Deals with the use of electronic computers and computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit and retrieve information, securely. Recently it has become popular to broaden the term to explicitly in-clude the field of electronic communication.

Korean Meteorological Administration (KMA): Korean government body responsible for improving public welfare through the prevention and mitigation of meteorological disasters, as well as the provision of meteorological support in industrial activities.

Memorandum of understanding (MOU): A legal document describing a bilateral or multi-lateral agreement between parties. It expresses a convergence of will between the parties, in-dicating an intended common line of action and may not imply a legal commitment. It is a more formal alternative to a gentlemen’s agreement, but in some cases, depending on the ex-act wording, lacks the binding power of a contract.

Meteorological Service Canada (MSC): Part of Environment Canada, the MSC is Canada’s source for meteorological information. The MSC monitors water quantities, provides infor-mation and conducts research on climate, atmospheric science, air quality, ice and other envi-ronmental issues.

MFN duty rate: The rate of duty applied to goods originating from all countries, except North Korea and Libya, unless it can be proved that the imported good originates from a country that benefits from a preferential tariff.

Mine plan: Description of the development plans for a mine.

Sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) measures: Measures put in place by governments to protect human, animal (sanitary) and plant (phytosanitary) life or health.

Shelterbelt planning: Shelterbelts are linear plantings of trees and shrubs designed to block winds that can enhance crop production, protect buildings, people and livestock, trap snow and/or prevent soil and water erosion. Shelterbelts may also be a source of valuable timber and non-timber products as well providing habitat for wildlife. Shelterbelt planning is the process of clearly identifying, defining and determining the design and placement of a shelterbelt. This includes the systematic consideration of the physical environment, cli-mate, tree and shrub species, time, maintenance and management necessary to achieve prede-termined goals and objectives of the proposed shelterbelt.

Silviculture: The art and science of controlling the establishment, growth, composition, health and quality of forests and woodlands to meet the diverse needs and values of land-owners and society on a sustainable basis.

Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA): Used synonymously with Environmental As-sessment (EA) in the 2001 Framework for Conducting Environmental Assessments of Trade Negotiations, an SEA is a systematic process of identifying and evaluating likely environ-mental impacts from an initiative to ensure they are integrated and addressed at the earliest stage of decision making. The term “strategic” is added to distinguish the activity from pro-ject-level environmental assessment.

Summerfallow: Cropland left idle in order to restore productivity, mainly through accumula-tion of water, nutrients, or both. The soil is tilled for a growing season to control weeds, to aid in decomposition of plant residues, and to encourage the storage of moisture for the suc-ceeding crop. Summerfallow exposes soil to a high risk of erosion from extreme weather events (high winds and heavy rains).

Supply-managed (agricultural products): Refers to those agricultural products subject to supply management, which aims to balance production with the needs of the domestic market for each of the five commodities with supply-managed schemes (dairy, chicken, eggs, turkey, and broiler hatching eggs).
