Ottawa has eliminated all interprovincial trade barriers that fall under its jurisdiction, Internal Trade Minister Chrystia Freeland has announced.

The federal government is removing all of the remaining federal exceptions from the Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA) that had been inhibiting free trade between the provinces, Freeland said in a June 30 press release.
