MacDonald Commission
The Royal Commission on the Economic Union and Development Prospects for Canada, known as the MacDonald Commission, was crucial in Canada's move towards free trade with the United States. Following the "third option" plans of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau (and Minister Mitchell Sharp) Canada began a shift towards a focus on improving trade relations with the US rather than with the rest of the world.
