REAL fair trade agreement. Canada and the US have had trade agreements of various kinds for many, many years so there is no doubt, imo, that we will continue to have one so why not have one that actually works for the people and NOT the corporations. Let's have one that has strong labour and environmental rules that will be enforced.

NAFTA, as it exists now, is only for the benefit of the corporations at the expense of the citizens of Canada, Mexico and the United States. It allows the corporations to by-pass any environmental laws, labour laws and penalizes Provinces/States who try to strengthen their laws in these and other areas.

Just my 2 cents on this.

I started out being neutral on NAFTA but, after seeing how it actually works, am strongly against it.
