"The Marie Curie scheme brings together the best talents in higher education and research so that knowledge moves freely across borders and stimulates innovation and new ideas, which are the lifeblood of progress in healthcare and many other areas".

Quebec benefits from Canada's political and economic unity in many ways, including the following: the movement of goods and services across internal borders is facilitated by our common currency and significant harmonization of the laws, regulations and tax systems affecting businesses; interprovincial mobility of labour is guaranteed by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms; mobility of capital between regions is supported by federal regulation of the financial sector and by the existence of a common currency; free movement increases the flexibility of regional economies; unemployment rates are lower because Canadians can look for work where there are a lot of jobs; free movement of goods and services contributes to the short-term stabil ...[+++]ity of businesses because they can gain easy access to markets and resources across the country; and our economic structure's long-term adaptability is supported by the free movement of capital, which can flow to regions experiencing economic growth.

NAFTA means assuring the movement across our borders of people, as the flow of services, technology and knowledge is the key to our shared welfare.

It will require first of all a number of initiatives, notably on legal and regulatory issues, and in particular measures to remove the obstacles to the free movement of researchers, knowledge and technologies in Europe in different areas: scientific careers, social protection and intellectual property systems, and provisions concerning the transfer of knowledge and dissemination of results.

It is linked to the unity of Europe and to the development, through the creation of the internal market, of an area within which goods, services, know-how, technologies and ideas can be exchanged and circulated on a continental scale. It also draws on the diversity of Europe, with its scope for an exchange of knowledge and experience, the cross-fertilisation of know-how and traditions, between different European countries.

It is clear that a knowledge of several languages by as many citizens as possible is bound to contribute mightly to the economic, technical, scientific and cultural development of the Community and thus to its internal cohesion and that the free movement of persons, goods, capital and services - a prime objective of the Treaty of Rome, the Single Act and the completion of the large market in 1992 - will certainly be much easier to achieve if the teaching and learning of languages are intensified in the years to come.
