european parliament: Millions of people across Europe and Canada have rejected this deal, including many Members of European Parliament, unions, environmental groups and farmers." Green Party leader Elizabeth May is almost as pleased. "I applaud the Wallonian regional parliament for standing firmly against this bad deal, according to Rabble. In its current form, the agreement will increase pharmaceutical costs and hurt farmers, manufacturing sectors, and Canadian sovereignty." The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is unhappy, to put it mildly. Please consider supporting his work with a monthly donation Support Karl on Patreon today for as little as $1 per month! The Council of Canadians is exultant about the potential demise of a Canada/EU trade agreement. "Democracy has prevailed and the agenda to boost corporate rights is in tatters," says Maude Barlow, the Council national chairperson. "This isn't about internal Belgian politics. It believes the collapse of talks between Canada and the EU represents a "serious set-back for efforts to restore economic growth." "It would be hard to find two partners that are better-suited to building an economic alliance, so it incredibly disappointing to see the agreement fall short of the finish line by a few inches," says a chagrined Perrin Beatty, the Chamber CEO. The Official Opposition Conservatives are also, officially, disappointed. Conservatives point out that for most of their tenure in office they kept the talks going, productively. But their tears seem, perhaps, a bit crocodilian.
