StatCan. 2018-04-05. Canadian international merchandise trade, February 2018
- Imports: $48.6 billion, February 2018, 1.9% increase (monthly change)
- Exports: $45.9 billion, February 2018, 0.4% increase (monthly change)
- Trade balance: -$2.7 billion, February 2018
- Source(s): CANSIM table 228-0069: http://www5.statcan.gc.ca/cansim/a26?lang=eng&retrLang=eng&id=2280069&&pattern=&stByVal=1&p1=1&p2=31&tabMode=dataTable&csid=
Canada's merchandise trade deficit totalled $2.7 billion in February, widening from a $1.9 billion deficit in January. Imports rose 1.9%, mainly due to higher imports of energy products. Exports increased 0.4%, primarily on higher exports of passenger cars and light trucks.
In real (or in volume) terms, imports rose 1.9% and exports were up 0.6%.
Chart 1: Merchandise exports and imports
Energy products lead the increase in imports
Following a 4.3% decline in January, total imports were up 1.9% in February to $48.6 billion, with increases in 8 of 11 sections. Higher imports of energy products and of motor vehicles and parts were partially offset by lower imports of gold. Year over year, total imports increased 3.5%.
Imports of energy products rose 15.4% to $3.4 billion in February, the highest level since November 2014. Imports of crude oil and crude bitumen were also up 15.4%, with a larger share coming from the United States. Imports of refined petroleum energy products (+24.1%) also increased, in part due to higher imports of motor gasoline entering British Columbia. For the section as a whole, volumes rose 14.5%, and prices were up 0.8%.
Following atypical plant shutdowns in January, imports of motor vehicles and parts partially rebounded in February, up 1.7% to $9.4 billion, on higher imports of motor vehicle engines and motor vehicle parts.
Partially offsetting the overall increase were lower imports of gold, which contributed to decreases in the metal ores and non-metallic minerals (-11.9%) and in the metal and non-metallic mineral products (-3.0%) sections. Disruptions in gold mining activity, particularly in Argentina and the Dominican Republic, led to lower imports of both gold bullion and unwrought gold in February.
Strong offsetting movements in exports
Total exports edged up 0.4% to $45.9 billion in February, with increases in exports of motor vehicles and parts, and aircraft and other transportation equipment and parts. These were largely offset by lower exports of farm, fishing and intermediate food products, and of metal and non-metallic mineral products. Year over year, total exports were up 1.5%. Exports excluding energy products were up 0.7%.
Exports of motor vehicles and parts, up 5.0% to $7.5 billion, led the increase in February, mostly on higher exports of passenger cars and light trucks (+6.7%). This marks a partial recovery after atypical plant closures in the automotive industry in January.
Exports of aircraft and other transportation equipment and parts also contributed to the overall increase, up 19.6% to $1.7 billion, rebounding from a decline of 21.9% in January. Exports of aircraft to Latvia and Hong Kong primarily accounted for the increase in February.
Partially offsetting the overall increase were lower exports of farm, fishing and intermediate food products, down 17.2% to $2.4 billion, the largest decline on record. Exports of wheat (-41.6%) and canola (-40.1%) were responsible for the drop in the section. These decreases coincided with rail transportation issues in Western Canada in February.
Exports of metal and non-metallic mineral products also fell sharply in February, down 7.2% to $5.2 billion. Following a 27.4% increase in December and January combined, exports of unwrought precious metals and precious metal alloys fell 34.3% in February, primarily on lower shipments of unwrought gold to the United Kingdom.
Increase in trade with the United States
Following two consecutive monthly decreases, trade with the United States rose in February. Imports from the United States were up 3.3% to $32.1 billion, mostly on higher imports of aircraft. Exports to the United States increased 1.9% to $34.6 billion, mainly on higher exports of passenger cars and light trucks.
As a result, Canada's trade surplus with the United States narrowed from $2.9 billion in January to $2.6 billion in February.
Exports to countries other than the United States fell 4.2% to $11.3 billion, mainly on lower exports to the United Kingdom (unwrought gold). Imports from countries other than the United States also declined, down 0.6% to $16.6 billion. Lower imports of gold from the Dominican Republic and Argentina were partially offset by higher imports of passenger cars and light trucks from India and Mexico.
As a result, Canada's merchandise trade deficit with countries other than the United States widened from $4.9 billion in January to $5.3 billion in February.
Revisions to January exports and imports
Revisions reflected initial estimates being updated with or replaced by administrative and survey data as they became available, as well as amendments made for late documentation of high-value transactions. Exports and imports, as originally reported in January, were essentially unchanged in the current month's release.

THE GLOBE AND MAIL. REUTERS. APRIL 5, 2018. Canada’s trade deficit jumps as rail problems cut grain exports
Canada’s trade deficit in February jumped to C$2.69 billion ($2.10 billion) from C$1.94 billion in January as rail transport problems slashed exports of wheat and canola, Statistics Canada said on Thursday.
The deficit was larger than the C$2.00 billion shortfall predicted by analysts in a Reuters poll. Canada has only recorded two monthly trade surpluses since October 2014.
Exports grew by 0.4 percent as shipments of motor vehicles and parts rebounded by 5.0 percent following atypical Canadian auto plant closures in January. Exports of aircraft and other transportation equipment rocketed by 19.6 percent.
But exports of farm, fishing and intermediate food products dropped by 17.2 percent, the largest fall on record. Continuing shortages of rail cars in western Canada cut exports of wheat by 41.6 percent and canola by 40.1 percent.
Ross Prusakowski, a senior economist at Export Development Canada, noted the strength in the vehicle and aircraft sectors and predicted the rail issues would last another month.
“We believe March data should be stronger,” he said by phone. In real, or volume terms, exports rose by 0.6 percent.
Imports rose by 1.9 percent on a 15.4 percent surge in shipments of energy products, pushed up by higher demand for crude oil and crude bitumen. Imports of motor vehicles and parts climbed by 1.7 percent as the auto plant shutdowns ended.
The Canadian dollar was little changed on the news. Separately, data released in Washington showed the U.S. trade deficit in February rose to a near 9-1/2 year high.
Paul Ferley, assistant chief economist at Royal Bank of Canada, said the stronger imports showed some strength in the domestic economy.
“But I think indications of growth coming in weaker than expected are going to dampen market expectations of any near-term tightening by the Bank (of Canada),” he said in a phone interview.
The central bank, which has raised rates three times since last July, repeatedly cites uncertainty over the future of the North American Free Trade Agreement as a risk factor for the economy.
Canada sent 75.4 percent of all goods exports to the United States in February and would be hurt if the trilateral agreement collapsed.
Exports to the United States rose 1.9 percent while imports increased by 3.3 percent. As a result, the trade surplus with the United States shrank to C$2.58 billion from C$2.93 billion in January.

ANP. 05 de Abril de 2018. ANP publica edital e contratos da 4ª Rodada de Partilha
A ANP publicou nesta quinta-feira (5/4) o edital e os modelos de contrato da 4ª Rodada de Partilha de Produção no Pré-sal, que será realizada em 7 de junho. A área de Saturno, inicialmente prevista para a licitação, foi retirada, atendendo à solicitação do Ministério de Minas e Energia. A área deverá ser incluída na próxima rodada realizada na modalidade de partilha.
O edital traz os blocos em oferta, as regras e procedimentos para participação e o cronograma preliminar da rodada. Foram adequados os valores relativos à garantia financeira do Programa Exploratório Mínimo para as áreas em oferta.
O documento publicado mantém as regras da reabertura, ao final da rodada, das ofertas dos blocos não arrematados, que já constaram dos editais da 2ª e 3ª Rodadas de Partilha, mas com alguns aprimoramentos. As empresas que não tiverem garantias de ofertas suficientes na reabertura, por exemplo, poderão apresentar ofertas nesse momento e apresentar as garantias posteriormente.
Já os modelos de contrato trazem, entre as novidades, a revisão da cláusula que trata de arbitragem, como resultado da Consulta e Audiência Públicas nº 24/2017.
Considerando a manifestação de interesse da Petrobras em participar como operadora nas áreas de Dois Irmãos, Três Marias e Uirapuru, foram elaborados dois modelos de contrato de partilha de produção, sendo um com a participação obrigatória de 30% da empresa, como operadora, e a outra sem essa participação.
A 4ª Rodada de Partilha, aprovada pela Resolução CNPE nº 21, de 9 de novembro de 2017, ofertará as áreas de Itaimbezinho, Três Marias, Dois Irmãos e Uirapuru, nas bacias de Campos e Santos. O prazo final para entrega dos documentos de manifestação de interesse, qualificação e pagamento da taxa de participação se encerra em 20 de abril de 2018.

INDÚSTRIA
CNI. 03/04/2018. CNI defende abertura comercial, redução de barreiras às exportações e investimentos brasileiros no exterior. Diretor de Desenvolvimento Industrial, Carlos Abijaodi, apresentou prioridades da indústria para a Câmara de Comércio Exterior, Receita Federal e os ministérios da Indústria, Comércio Exterior e Serviços e Relações Exteriores
O comércio exterior é fundamental para o crescimento da economia e para a geração de empregos no Brasil. Essa é a avaliação do diretor de Desenvolvimento Econômico da Confederação Nacional da Indústria (CNI), Carlos Eduardo Abijaodi, que apresentou a Agenda Internacional da Indústria 2018 ao governo, na terça-feira 3 de abril. O documento possui 97 propostas para o aperfeiçoamento da política comercial e estratégias da indústria para a internacionalização das empresas do país. “Para consolidarmos o crescimento econômico e deixarmos a recessão no passado, o comércio exterior não pode parar. Há muito a fazer em 2018”, diz Abijaodi.
Entre as propostas, Abijaodi defendeu a ampliação e a melhoria da rede de acordos comerciais do Brasil, a identificação e a eliminação de barreiras comerciais para o acesso a mercados dos bens, serviços e investimentos brasileiros, política para ampliar os investimentos brasileiros no exterior e a simplificação e a desburocratização das operações de comércio exterior, consideradas essenciais para reduzir o tempo de exportaçõa e importação.
O diretor ressaltou ainda a importância da logística e da infraestrutura no aumento da competitividade da indústria, os problemas da burocracia excessiva e da alta carga tributária no comércio exterior, além da necessidade e um sistema brasileiro de financiamento e garantias às exportações para alavancar as vendas brasileiras. Dados internacionais mostram que cada US$ 1 desembolsado no financiamento gera outros US$ 19 em exportações.
ACORDOS COMERCIAIS – O subsecretário-geral de Assuntos Econômicos e Financeiros do Itamaraty, embaixador Ronaldo Costa, disse estar impressionado com a posição da indústria cada vez mais favorável à abertura comercial. Segundo ele, há seis anos, quando passou a participar mais ativamente das negociações entre Mercosul-União Europeia, o setor privado era muito cauteloso. Atualmente, afirma o embaixador, a CNI é mais demandante do que o próprio governo.
Segundo Ronaldo Costa, a abertura comercial, com o acordo entre os dois blocos, representará um salto na competitividade do Brasil, e não será o único. O Mercosul negocia acordo de livre comércio com Associação Europeia de Livre Comércio (EFTA) e Canadá, já começou a discutir com a Coreia do Sul e tem expectativas de começar a negociar com Cingapura. Para o embaixador, a proposta da CNI de ampliar a negociação de acordos comerciais é uma realidade e não deve ser afetada pelas eleições deste ano. “Não há outro caminho que não seja da abertura”, avalia.
COMÉRCIO EXTERIOR NÃO VAI PARAR – Essa é a mesma percepção do secretário de Comércio Exterior do Ministério da Indústria, Comércio Exterior e Serviços (MDIC), Abrão Árabe Neto. Com a Agenda Internacional da Indústria 2018 nas mãos, o secretário garantiu que as propostas serão incorporadas nas ações do MDIC, da mesma forma como as edições de 2016 e 2017 pautaram o Plano Nacional de Exportações.
“O comércio exterior é um vetor real do crescimento. Nos três primeiros meses do ano, as exportações cresceram mais de 10%, impulsionadas pela venda dos manufaturados. Vemos os acordos comerciais também como um indutor das reformas mais profundas que a economia brasileira precisa”, afirma Abrão Neto.
O secretário do MDIC lembrou ainda que o ministério lançou uma ferramenta para mapear barreiras ao comércio e, agora, precisa do apoio do setor privado para identificar as barreiras tarifárias e não-tarifárias que a indústria enfrenta ao exportar.
PARCERIA COM RECEITA FEDERAL – De acordo com subsecretário de Tributação e Contencioso, Luiz Fernando Teixeira Nunes, a Receita Federal tem feito o possível para avançar na simplificação dos processos e da tributação para melhorar o ambiente de negócios também para os exportadores.
Teixeira Nunes afirmou que o órgão reconhece, por exemplo, a complexidade do modelo brasileiro de Acordos para Evitar Dupla Tributação, o que afasta o Brasil do padrão da Organização para a Cooperação e Desenvolvimento Econômico (OCDE), e já estão trabalhando para simplificar o modelo brasileiro. A renegociação e a ampliação da rede de ADTs é importante para proteger o investimento brasileiro no exterior.
Apesar do bom entendimento entre o setor privado e a Receita, Luiz Fernando afirmou que num contexto fiscal apertado, o Reintegra – programa que compensa o prejuízo que o sistema tributário causa ao exportador brasileiro – corre o risco de não ser renovado em 2019.
CÂMARA DE COMÉRCIO EXTERIOR – A secretária-executiva da Câmara de Comércio Exterior (CAMEX), Marcela Carvalho, afirmou que as política fiscal e monetária também precisam levar em conta política comercial, que trata das ações de Comércio Exterior. Ela lembrou das mudanças recentes que fortaleceram a CAMEX e garantiu que tanto a Casa Civil quanto a presidência da República reconhecem a importância da agenda de comércio exterior.
No momento, na pauta da CAMEX há uma preocupação com convergência regulatória, tributação de serviços e revisão da legislação de financiamento e garantias.
INTERNACIONALIZAÇÃO - O eixo de serviços da Agenda Internacional da Indústria compreende ações de apoio à internacionalização das empresas brasileiras, sobretudo para micros e pequenos negócios. "A preparação das nossas empresas é fundamental para ampliar a participação do Brasil no comércio exterior. Por isso, criamos uma esteira de atendimento, para atender e capacitar empresas com níveis diferentes de maturidade internacional", afirma o gerente-executivo de Assuntos Internacionais da CNI, Diego Bonomo.
Entre os destaques para 2018, estão a difusão do modelo Rota Global para preparação de empresas iniciantes no comércio exterior, disponibilização da capacitações gerais e setoriais, a qualificação das equipes da Rede de Centros Internacionais de Negócios (Rede CIN), coordenada pela CNI, prospecção de novos negócios no exterior e aprimoramento na operação de instrumentos de facilitação, como o ATA Carnet, que permite a exportação e importação temporárias de bens, e o Certificado de Origem Digital (COD).
