Tony Fratto
[EU sanctions] would affect U.S. importers [those products] first. But if the EU retaliates [by imposing its own trade tariffs] it could hurt any company [in the import-export business]. We don't know which categories they would choose to sanction.
Lee Greenbaum
The case is clear, an auto part is an auto part, and not a built-up vehicle. The higher tariffs are a threat.
Brian Duggan
Europe and America should go to Hong Kong with a common position that by 2010 we will eliminate export subsidies, we will reduce the tariffs that are being charged and we will open our markets finally to developing countries.

What this means for U.S. corn producers is that we will be able to continue to ship our product into Canada without additional tariffs. This is good news for U.S. producers, for not only corn but other commodities as well. I think it sends a sign to U.S. producers that international trade law does work.
Chris Garza
We are studying ways to challenge the government decision to freeze tariffs.
Colette Neuville
Canada would benefit from a fresh dose of competition. Although tariffs on goods are declining, the list of non-tariff barriers is daunting. The primary impact of these barriers is to raise costs, which reduces the competitiveness of Canadian firms. This is not a federal versus provincial issue ? all governments are responsible for maintaining barriers.
Paul Darby
We do not expect the negotiations to break down this time, ... Members of the WTO agreed that some consensus should be reached on issues of subsidies and tariffs to agriculture and the service industry. We are prudently optimistic that some consensus will be reached.

If you look at the history of trade negotiations, we all started off talking about tariffs. Now we are talking about investment and intellectual property because these are all intertwined in terms of building a shared market and generating strong growth.

It's not a pocketbook issue for the American consumer. We're already applying pretty low tariffs to China.
Alan Wolff
If a few of these are unavoidable, tariff caps should be imposed on them. Otherwise exemptions will simply derail market access however large the cut in tariffs and most of the potential welfare gains from global agricultural reform will simply not materialize.
Will Martin
In the UK we have a tariff that allows unlimited calls. International tariffs are more challenging, as we don't know where our costs are going to be. The costs for international roaming are difficult to predict because of different international carrier charges.
Mike Short
The price must go up to foot the bill of the new power stations. Without a shadow of a doubt electricity tariffs will increase.

[The EU agreement] gave a lot of support to the market. A lot of buyers came in, ... Tariffs (for exports) will be reduced dramatically. It's excellent.
Alvaro Garcia
The hike in pump prices, and electricity and gas tariffs that have also been raised, fed through to overall consumer prices. Given that the MAS expects a higher pass-through from oil, and for inflation to be higher even in 2006, the current policy stance will remain appropriate.
