"Mr President, free trade is something I believe it when it is fair and when it enables all the parties in each country to trade freely. But this EU-Canada Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) is not one of free trade. It is not one that is fair. It is not one that can be fair when the corporates were the only ones invited to make agreements in secret with the Commissioners, when investors will be able to sue freely through the new Investor Court system, and when corporations will actually be invited to make the rules.
There were no protections for the National Health Service, which is vital to the United Kingdom. Wallonia opposed it and was bought off. Our parliaments do not have the opportunity to vote on it before it is in place. People emailed me in their thousands: they have been ignored. Demonstrators were dragged away in this Chamber: they have been ignored. Huge corporates and wealthy bureaucrats won today. The people, democracy and trade lost."@en1
