French

Domaine(s)
  • Commerce extérieur
  • Douanes et accise
CONT

Le trafic des marchandises conteneurisées et d'autres types de marchandises entre le Canada et les É.-U. a augmenté régulièrement au cours des dernières années. Toutes les marchandises transfrontalières ont été acheminées à des taux hors-conférence, même si elles étaient transportées par des exploitants membres d'une conférence.

OBS

L'adjectif «transfrontalier» est à privilégier. Le mot «transfrontière» ne figure pas dans les dictionnaires, sauf rare exception, mais il est attesté dans les documents de l'OMC [Organisation mondiale du commerce] et les accords de libre-échange du Canada.

  • biens transfrontière
