美国输出的文化娱乐产品,象它最近出口的使用 荷尔蒙的牛肉和被病菌感染的鸡肉受阻一样,遭到欧 洲盟国和北美邻国的严重抵制。 美国贸易代表坎特办公室的官员日前证实,美国 已就加拿大对美国《体育画刊》杂志加拿大版的广告 收入征收80％的经营许可税一事正式向世界贸易组 织提出控告。美国认为,加拿大近日对《体育画刊》 实施高税收政策是试图将美国杂志逐出加拿大市场, 是一种明显的贸易保护主义做法。坎特声称,美国决 心同加拿大打赢这场官司,以便回击加拿大、欧洲和 亚洲国家对美国出版和娱乐产品“日益增多的围 攻”。
The output of cultural and entertainment products from the United States has been severely boycotted by EU allies and neighboring North American countries, just as the recently exported beef with hormones and chicken infected with the germs have been hampered. Officials from the U.S. Trade Representative Canter Office recently confirmed that the United States has formally filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization about Canada’s 80% royalty tax on the Canadian version of Sports Illustrated magazine’s advertising revenue. The United States believes that Canada’s recent implementation of a high taxation policy on Sports Illustrated is an obvious trade protectionism attempt to expel American magazines from the Canadian market. Canter claimed that the United States is determined to win this lawsuit with Canada in order to fight back the growing siege of U.S. publishing and entertainment products by Canada, Europe and Asia.
