The Canada-United States perimeter encompasses the world’s largest binational flow of people and goods. Not only has this flow fostered significant social, cultural and historic ties between Canada and the United States, but it has also been a critical factor in the strong and vibrant economic development of each country. Indeed, it is difficult to imagine how the robust economic performance of either Canada or the United States would be possible without the other.

The tragic events of Septembr 11, 2001, and their aftermath, served to underscore the closeness of these bonds. These events also heightened awareness of and concern about measures employed to keep both countries secure against terrorism.
