A small number of countries, including Canada, have taken narrow [most favoured nation] exemptions, primarily to preserve existing bilateral preferences. For example, Canada took an MFN exception related to agency services in insurance so that Ontario can continue to grant preferential treatment to U.S. insurance agents.

CONT

Un petit nombre de pays, y compris le Canada, ont demandé des exemptions à la règle de la [nation la plus favorisée], surtout pour préserver des préférences bilatérales existantes. À titre d'exemple, le Canada a pris une exception à la NPF en ce qui concerne les services d'agences en assurances afin que l'Ontario puisse continuer d'octroyer un traitement préférentiel aux agents d'assurances des États-Unis.
