Canada Colombia FTA: Making a Bad situation Worse
March 30, 2009
Canada Colombia FTA: Making a Bad situation Worse
The Canada Colombia Free Trade Agreement was introduced to parliament on March 26th by the Conservative Government. It will sit until it is tabled, likely after the Easter recess, after which time it will sit for 21 days before ratification (or defeat).
The Canadian Council for International Cooperation released an exhaustive investigation into the trade deal on the day it was tabled.
For their part, the Conservatives have gotten so desperate to sell the deal that they're not even talking about human rights for Colombians anymore. Now it's about jobs for Canadians.
**CORRECTION: I mistakenly wrote that the deal has been tabled already. The bill has been introduced, not tabled. Sorry for any confusion.**
