I organized the annual Queen’s Institute on Trade Policy from 2009 until 2018. Drawing on the experience of former negotiators and academic trade experts, the objective for the Institute is to help a new generation of federal, provincial and territorial trade policy practitioners to acquire the skills and perspectives needed to develop trade negotiation strategies, and to provide networking opportunities with their counterparts in other departments and levels of government.
