The eve of a major multilateral trade negotiation is a time to meditate. This is not because the atmosphere is beauteous, calm and free. Nor is it about to become so because major governments, after years of haggling, are ready — more or less — to enter the round. Indeed, the Conventions of trade negotiation are antithetical to a calm and clear understanding of what combination of aspiration and realism will do most to improve the conditions of international trade. In such negotiations, the general objective — the reduction of trade barriers — is referred to as a concession to others. 'Standing firm' and other forms of negativism are praised. Brinkmanship is encouraged— at least among those strong enough to do damage.

A particular problem for Canada was the ambivalent nature of her relationship with the United States. Canadians were anxious to maintain, at the same time, full political independence and a close military alliance with the United States. They insisted upon economic independence, but they wanted the benefits of American participation in the development of their economy. Richard Preston, Canada in World Affairs 1959 to 1961
