âš  This is a flightplan, not a commitment. Flightplans are hypothetical policy proposals modelled in the Ducklings causal simulation. They become projects only when voted into adoption through Consensus. Metrics shown reflect simulation model outputs, not real-world outcomes.

Overview

Fast-tracked CPTPP trade routes, EU-CETA utilization push, and critical minerals export deals with Japan and South Korea partially offset US export losses. Energy export infrastructure (LNG Canada, TMX) redirects volume to Asian markets.

Ducklings Simulation

This proposal is active in the Ducklings causal simulation (Epoch 3). The simulation models downstream effects using a BFS cascade engine with strength-weighted, time-delayed edges capped at 3-hop depth and ±25% per-hop limits. Cascade outputs are bounded by variable saturation thresholds.
