When Leaders met in Cancun for the first anniversary of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP), they recognized that more direct advice from the private sector would help to drive progress on measures that would be most effective in enabling North American companies to attract investment and create jobs. The results was the creation of the North American Competitiveness Council (NACC), a trilateral advisory body made up of business leaders from each of the three countries. In doing so, Leaders decided that the NACC should function fully independently of governments. NACC members then requested the support of organizations with relevant expertise in each country to act as their secretariats, and my Council is pleased to be serving as the Canadian secretariat.

OBS

La création du Conseil nord-américain de la compétitivité (CNAC) s'inscrit dans la reconnaissance du fait que la participation du secteur privé constitue une étape essentielle en vue du renforcement de la position concurrentielle de l'Amérique du Nord sur les marchés mondiaux, la véritable force motrice de l'innovation et de la croissance. Le CNAC, un conseil trilatéral, s'est vu confier le mandat de proposer des recommandations concrètes sur des questions d'une importance immédiate ainsi que de fournir des conseils d'ordre stratégique à moyen et à long terme à l'intention des ministres responsables de la sécurité et de la prospérité économique ainsi qu'aux chefs de gouvernement.
