It helps countries concentrate on their strengths and helps provide goods at lower costs than they would be able to produce themselves. Items such as tropical foods such as bananas, pineapples, sugar, tea and coffee are obvious examples. Canada could either not produce those items or only at prohibitive costs.
The Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade estimates that 43% of Canadian gross domestic product came from trade and 25% of Canada's jobs came from exports.

The reduction of trade barriers
International business is important to all countries. To sell more goods then you buy causes your nation to have more money and value. If your nation isolates itself from all other countries, you have a stagnant growth pattern. Your value as a nation stays the same or dwindles. International trade brings in new concepts and innovation also. In Canada's case, 94% of that countries population lives within a few miles of the U.S.A. I am not sure Canada could survive as a separate country without that trade.
International trade plays a crucial role in the development of the world economy. The participation of different countries in international trade helps to intensify production and deepen its specialisation. The use of equipment increases, mass production is organised, new machinery and modern technology are introduced, and exports increase if there is a demand on the market. In turn, the expansion of exports leads to an increase in employment.
