Canada could benefit from a renegotiated free trade deal following the UK's vote to exit the European Union.
Experts say any potential renegotiation of the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) could work in Canada's favour with the UK excluded from the terms of the deal.

CETA – a Canada-EU free trade deal that has been seven years in the making – was expected to be ratified in 2016 until the UK referendum threw it into jeopardy.
It could still be voted through in its current form, although this is likely to be a drawn-out process following the EU's decision to empower member states to each pass it through their individual parliaments.
