Beyond Barriers: Deepening Canada–Ireland Trade and Investment
Canada and Ireland have cultivated a dynamic and resilient economic relationship, nearly doubling trade since the implementation of the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA). Yet, there remains untapped potential. Strategic action could unlock an additional US$1.5 billion in goods trade and potentially another US$571 million in services, while strengthening investment and resilience.
This impact paper explores:
- the shared foundations and complementary strengths driving bilateral success;
- five high-potential service sectors and 13 goods categories with unrealized trade potential;
- investment trends and sectoral opportunities for Canadian and Irish firms;
- policy and business actions needed to scale the relationship.
