SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING CANADA'S RESTRIC- TIONS ON IMPORTS OF UNITED STATES CfflCKENS. (a) FINDINGS.—The Senate makes the following findings: (1) The United States chicken industry is a highly competitive and growing industry which employs over 200,000 people, has over 25,000 family farms, and has significant production in over 28 States. (2) United States exports of chickens grew by 32 percent in volume in 1993 and exports are increasingly important to the continued economic vitality of the chicken industry. (3) Canada's chicken supply management system has severely limited the importation of United States chickens to Canada since it was imposed over 15 years ago, and its elimination would lead to between $350,000,000 and $700,000,000 in new exports to Canada and between 7,000 and 14,000 new jobs in the United States. (4) Canada's chicken supply management system protects Canadian chicken growers while seriously hurting both United States and Canadian food processors, retailers, and consumers. (5) The United States and Canada have a free trade agreement which calls for the elimination of all tariffs and prohibits the imposition of new tariffs on any goods traded bilaterally. (6) The goals of the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture are to liberalize and expand trade in agriculture and to eliminate distortions to such trade. (7) Canada refused to negotiate the issue of elimination of its severe trade restrictions on the importation of United States chickens as part of the North American Free Trade Agreement (hereafter referred to as "NAFTA") because the issue was part of the global trade negotiations under the Uruguay Round.
