The system by which the amount and qualities of goods and services are determined (and, hence, resources to produce them allocated) by the price that consumers are willing to pay. 4, record 2, English, - price%20system
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
In a price system in which markets are permitted to work without outside intervention, the price system will tend toward an optimal allocation of resources and of production of goods and services; if there is a shortage of an item the price will rise, and new resources will be applied to its production, until a new equilibrium is achieved in which no other combination of goods and services produced or allocation of resources could produce greater satisfaction. In practice, no price system achieves this ideal. In all markets there are frictions caused by lags in response. 4, record 2, English, - price%20system

En un sistema de precios en el que se permite que los mercados actúen sin intervención externa, el sistema de precios tenderá a la asignación óptima de recursos y de producción de bienes y servicios; si hay escasez de un artículo, el precio aumentará y se aplicarán nuevos recursos a su producción, hasta que se llegue a un equilibrio en el que ninguna otra combinación de bienes y servicios producidos o de asignación de recursos podría proporcionar mayor satisfacción.

Location effects involve the geographical allocation of existing resources. By and large, the recent literature on these effects focuses on the distribution of economic activity. One robust conclusion is that the relationship between concentration and liberalization is complex. At one extreme, prohibitive barriers lead to the total decentralization of production. At this extreme, liberalization is clearly accompanied by increased concentration of production in large markets. At the other extreme, location of production is evenly spread when there are no costs to trading, so liberalization near this extreme is accompanied by a decrease in concentration. Beyond this rather vacuous result, it is difficult to say much about the location effects of an EU enlargement. 1, record 4, English, - total%20decentralization%20of%20production

Second carrier designation policy. Clear rules will govern the allocation of second designation opportunities. Assessment of applications for second designation for scheduled passenger services by a Canadian carrier, large or small, will be guided for market thresholds, as follows :-in country markets with at least 300, 000 one-way origin/destination passengers per year travelling by scheduled air service, second designations will be made.... Applications for designation in markets already served by two carriers will not be considered until markets have grown significantly beyond their current passenger level. The only exception will be the United States which is by far Canada's largest international market. Under the recently signed "open skies" agreement, any Canadian carrier will be permitted to serve any route to the United States.... In order to facilitate this policy, Canada will negotiate second designation rights in markets as they mature, whenever practical, and will seek agreement on the necessary capacity and frequency of service to give effect to such rights. As of the date of announcement of this policy, the following country markets meet the 300, 000 passenger threshold, thereby enabling second carrier designation : the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Hong Kong and Japan. 3, record 5, English, - designated%20air%20carrier

Politique de désignation de second transporteur. Des règles claires régiront l'attribution des opportunités de désignation de second transporteur. L'évaluation des demandes de second transporteur pour des services passagers réguliers par un transporteur canadien, gros ou petit, sera basée sur des seuils de marché comme suit : - dans les marchés qui ont annuellement au moins 300 000 passagers aller simple en provenance ou à destination d'un pays desservi par service régulier, on fera des désignations de second transporteur [...] Le gouvernement se réservera le droit d'imposer des limites au service des transporteurs désignés.

La seule exception sera les États-Unis qui sont de loin le marché international le plus important du Canada.
