How can anyone think this is a good idea?
Why not just hand over the country straight out rather than bit by bit.

Someone needs to draw a picture of Stephen Harper in a gimp suit serving Hu Jintao a piping hot double double.
I listen to the cbc for much of the day and have to wonder….why aren't the opposition parties going apeshit to try and stop this guy,or at least letting the general public know about things like this.
Ill bet 98% of canadians dont have a clue this is happening.
Elizabeth May (Green) has been trying to draw attention to it for quite some time now, NDP seems to be finally picking up the thread. All I can think is that there must be a defeatist attitude from opposition parties. What Harper wants, Harper gets.
Kn.
When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity.
When many people suffer from a delusion, it is called religion.

NAFTA had public hearings and open debate in the house. The Con's are trying to do this all hush hush and sweep it under the rug.
NWO!
It will take more than petitions to save your perceived freedoms people. You mean nothing to your government, shut up and pay your taxes.
Tinfoil now reality.

The Harper Government and 'open debate in the house' are not two things that have ever gone together.
One of the FEW mainstream newspaper articles about this:

It seems like the Cdn media is ignoring the story. I wonder why.

China is now one of most desired locations in the world for foreign firms, so its unlikely Canadian investors would be stymied. As well, the deal establishes that disputes will go to international arbitration, taking them out of the hands of notoriously unpredictable Chinese courts.
At least this is one silver lining. Now if they sue they don't have a 100% chance of victory.
A Russian friend of mine got beat up by 7 guys in a bar who later sued him for the damage to their knuckles. They won. When it comes to Chinese vs. foreigner disputes, a Chinese court is the last place the foreigner wants to be.
On a side note, maybe I'll actually be able to get a good job in Canada now. :lol:
As a white Mandarin speaker they would hire me just for appearances…
