The Report of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs is timely since this year marks the 25th anniversary of the Canada-EU Framework Agreement on Economic Cooperation. That agreement was "inspired by the common heritage, special affinity and shared aspirations" that unite Canada and the countries of the European Union. The Government of Canada welcomes the Standing Committee's Report, Crossing the Atlantic: Expanding the Economic Relationship between Canada and Europe for its guidance in helping Canada realize the full potential of this vital relationship. The European Economic Community has changed more than its name in the past 25 years. The EU now represents the world's largest market; its 375 million citizens move and work freely across the borders of its 15 member states. Most will soon buy and sell using its single currency, the euro. Within a decade, the Union could comprise 28 member states. Moreover, Canada's relationship with the new European Union now goes beyond commercial ties to encompass the whole range of issues facing Western nations: foreign and defence policy, the environment, social issues, immigration, information technology, health and employment.

It is now forty-two years since the first volume in the series Documents on Canadian external relations (DCER) was published. To date, twenty- seven volumes have been completed, covering the period from the founding of the Department of External Affairs in 1909 up to 1960. They amply document the political issues that occupied Canada’s diplomats during those years, but inevitably, for reasons of space, many fascinating accounts showing the more human side of life in the department had to be excluded. This book combines some of the most vividly written and interesting documents from the published volumes, other more personal and colourful items selected from the wealth of material held at Library and Archives Canada, more recent records taken both from archival holdings and from the files still retained by Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada, and a few articles that first appeared in the magazine bout de papier.
