GERMANY TO REJECT CETA
There is a a lot of talk and pats on the back in on-line media that Germany is to reject the Canada-EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), commonly referred to as the “Canadian TTIP”.
If true this is wonderful news for all the people who support workers and environment rights, democracy and their national judiaciary system over a corporate run one in which equitable access to justice is not available.
However until the Germans actually declare this I hesitate to crosspost articles based on rumours. It is a little too thrilling to presnt something as news when in my conservative outlook on life, I consider this to be “Pre News”. Yes i made up this terminolgy myself.
Having preambled caution into this, here are the links to the latest.
