Free trade with the European Union is a bad idea for Canada

The Harper government's relentless push to sign a new Canada-EU free trade deal would undermine the rights of federal, provincial and municipal governments to manage public spending over goods and services; it would privatize public services like drinking water, prevent us from adopting strong measures to combat climate change and wipe out up to 150,000 Canadian jobs, among a long list of additional concerns. CAW President Ken Lewenza says:

So far, all signs point to a free trade deal that is lopsided, unfair and would do more harm than good to Canadians.
