Today in Brussels, Stephen Harper And Jose Manuel Barroso have Signed CETA (comprehensive economic trade agreement).
The agreement text is still being kept secret and the agreement will not take effect for another two years (thats right the deal has been signed before anyone could even view it). Many main stream outlets are reporting the deal will open the EU’s market of a half billion consumers to Canadian exporters, also for the first time giving Europe’s corporations the right to bid on local infrastructure projects in Canadian cities.
What they are not prominently telling you is that the agreement opens Canadian rules and regulations to include European corporations. Effectively meaning that foreign corporations will be treated the same as domestic companies. Breaking down the borders for corporate control.
This deal is ushering Canada into a whole new level of globalization. Where corporations have supreme rule!

And that’s not enough support for Merkel’s party to rule on their own – as their main rivals; the Social Democrats, led by Peer Steinbrueck came in with 25.7 per cent. A coalition between the two will be hard to reach.
