  2. #Canada 🇨🇦 #EU 🇪🇺 #CETA

    von Le Chat (Mistal) auf meine Stichpunktfrage zusammengefasst :

    Hier eine detaillierte Übersicht zu den **digitalen Leistungen** und **Lebensmittelexporten** im Rahmen der Handelsbeziehungen zwischen der EU und Kanada (CETA), Stand Februar 2026:

    ---

    ### 1. **Digitale Leistungen**

    #### **Marktzugang und Liberalisierung**
    - **Dienstleistungshandel**: CETA hat den Handel mit digitalen Dienstleistungen zwischen der EU und Kanada deutlich erleichtert. Seit 2017 ist der **Handel mit Dienstleistungen um über 90 % gestiegen**
    .
    - **Rechtssicherheit**: CETA garantiert EU-Unternehmen den Zugang zum kanadischen Markt für digitale Dienstleistungen, ohne dass Kanada neue diskriminierende Maßnahmen einführen darf (außer in wenigen sensiblen Sektoren)
    .
    - **Datenschutz und Regulierung**: Beide Seiten erkennen Zertifizierungen und Konformitätsbewertungen gegenseitig an, was den grenzüberschreitenden Datenverkehr und die Bereitstellung digitaler Dienstleistungen (z. B. Cloud-Computing, KI, E-Commerce) vereinfacht
    .

    #### **Wichtige Sektoren**
    - **KI und Software**: Kanada ist ein globaler Vorreiter in KI-Forschung (z. B. Universität Toronto, Mila Montreal). EU-Unternehmen profitieren von Kooperationen und dem Zugang zu kanadischen Innovationen.
    - **E-Commerce und Fintech**: CETA erleichtert den grenzüberschreitenden Verkauf digitaler Produkte und Finanzdienstleistungen.
    - **Öffentliche Aufträge**: Kanadische Provinzen und Kommunen müssen ihre Beschaffungsmärkte für EU-Anbieter öffnen, was auch digitale Infrastrukturprojekte umfasst
    .

    #### **Herausforderungen**
    - **US-Einfluss**: Viele kanadische Tech-Unternehmen sind mit US-Firmen verflochten oder werden von diesen übernommen, was die direkte Unabhängigkeit Kanadas von den USA einschränkt
    .
    - **Datensouveränität**: Die EU legt Wert auf hohe Datenschutzstandards (DSGVO), während Kanada teilweise US-amerikanische Regulierungen übernimmt.

    ---

    ### 2. **Lebensmittelexporte (Agrarprodukte)**

    #### **Exportvolumen und Wachstum**
    - **EU-Exporte nach Kanada**: CETA hat die Ausfuhren von Lebensmitteln und Agrarprodukten deutlich gesteigert. Besonders stark gestiegen sind:
    - **Milchprodukte** (z. B. Käse, Joghurt): Die EU hat spezielle Zollkontingente für Milcherzeugnisse erhalten, die den Export erleichtern
    .
    - **Wein und Spirituosen**: Europäische Weine und hochwertige Spirituosen profitieren von reduzierten Zöllen und vereinfachten Zertifizierungsverfahren.
    - **Fleisch und Wurstwaren**: Besonders deutsche, italienische und französische Produkte sind gefragt.
    - **Kanada-Exporte in die EU**: Kanada liefert vor allem **Rindfleisch, Schweinefleisch, Ahornsirup, Lachs und Meeresfrüchte** in die EU
    .

    #### **Vereinfachte Zoll- und Ursprungsregeln**
    - **Ursprungserklärung**: Für EU-Lebensmittel reicht eine Ursprungserklärung auf der Rechnung, um von den CETA-Zollvergünstigungen zu profitieren (bei Sendungen über 6.000 Euro nur durch registrierte Ausführer)
    .
    - **Keine neuen Handelsbarrieren**: Kanada darf keine neuen Quoten oder diskriminierenden Maßnahmen gegen EU-Lebensmittel einführen.

    #### **Herausforderungen**
    - **Kanadische Standards**: Einige EU-Lebensmittel müssen an kanadische Vorschriften (z. B. Kennzeichnung, Pestizidgrenzen) angepasst werden.
    - **Konkurrenz**: US-Lebensmittel sind auf dem kanadischen Markt stark vertreten, was den Wettbewerb für EU-Produkte erhöht.

    ---

    ### **Zusammenfassung**
    - **Digitale Leistungen**: CETA hat den Markt für EU-Unternehmen geöffnet, besonders in den Bereichen KI, E-Commerce und Fintech. Die Abhängigkeit von US-Technologie bleibt jedoch eine Herausforderung.
    - **Lebensmittel**: Die EU profitiert von gestiegenen Exporten, insbesondere bei Milchprodukten, Wein und Fleisch. Vereinfachte Zollregeln erleichtern den Handel, aber Anpassungen an kanadische Standards sind nötig.

  3. Ils nous disent que les accords de libre-échange sont formidables. Que le #CETA, accord avec le Canada, est bénéfique.

    La réalité ? Le libre-échange préfèrera toujours une lentille produite avec des pesticides ultra-compétitive traversant l'océan en cargo, qu'une lentille produite localement.

  5. Es ist keine Stärke, wenn man einfach zu allem, was Großkonzerne erarbeiten Ja und Amen sagt. Das war auch bei #CETA schon das Problem.

    > Das Abkommen könne jetzt trotzdem vorläufig in Kraft treten und werde „nicht verzögert“.

    Am besten fand ich ja, dass Manfred Weber nun meint mit Recht abstimmen dürfe man nicht. Nicht nur, dass seine eigene EVP teilweise auch für den GRÜNEN/LInken-Antrag stimmten, sondern ausgerechnet er war ja der Architekt für das Zusammenstimmen mit den Rechtsradikalen.

  6. "The bill is deliberately drafted in such a way to ensure the government will never have to hold a referendum on investor courts ever again."

    We all know why the government doesn't want to bring this to the people. They know people are against it, which is why they want to quietly push it through.

  7. 🇨🇦🤝🇪🇺 Happy 8th 🎂 #CETA!

    Since 2017, EU & Canada have strengthened cooperation giving businesses preferential access and chances to grow – a win-win.

    With CETA and proposed agreements like EU-MERCOSUR, we are building a global network of reliable partners that delivers for people and businesses. 🌍📈

  36. Dear @EU_Commission,

    Every time you sell out to #Megacorps, it is for "the economy" (#SoftwarePatents, #EUCD, #TRIPS, #CETA,... ).

    Every time you try to impose #surveillance #dictatorship, you do it to "fight" #terrorism or #sexualassault on #children.

    You are doing it again, and again and again - no matter what we, the citizens of #Europe or even the courts say.

    With #ChatControl, you #rape the victims once more by abusing their pain to justify your means.
