It was a Liberal turned Conservative then that worked on the deal, of which Canada got 4 billion dollars from duties. These lowering wages you talk about are already happining because our own levels of government is taking away our living wages to support who knows what.

This is Peter Van Loon that worked this out. And the bid is on for American jobs only while their stimulus funding is in play, which ends some time mid February. In the meantime, they get free reign to bid on whatever jobs they want to in Canada. This is a complete sell-out and I agree 100% with Corneliu and also Someone who is not a fool. I don't get why people seem to think Harper was some hero in the whole softwood lumber deal. We got screwed. Even the WTO said we got screwed. But to get back a few billion, he actually sold out Canada then and signed that the USA was not in the wrong to get that money. And as someone who is not a fool said, even after signing, the deal wasn't respected, and now we have the US levying tariffs again on us. As for ratifying this agreement, we all see how Harper is stacking the Senate. Lets just imagine for one second what he can possibly accomplish if he gets his stacked senate to push through whatever deals. Very scary to think about. Guy Lauzon is a sellout as well. He sold out his constituents to tow the party line (ie: such as voting YES to the HST.) No doubt there is great damage to be done if he gets in on this as well. Afterall, we all saw how many jobs he brought to Cornwallians with his new call center, to be staffed by people in Ottawa, whom are already in the government. I was about to say.

Let's hope that the provinces don't go along with it. It must be passed by Parliament and by each of the provinces. The so-called deal gives access of US firms to Canadian municpal spending FOREVER. We get access to 37 states for the next few days when the stimulus spending runs out. Harper sold out to the US on the softwood lumber deal which Canada (The Liberals) was winning in court. Even after signing the deal, the US did not respect it. They have all kinds of loopholes to get around deals they make with other countries. Harper must think we are all fools. If you believe Harper, then you are a fool. Or perhaps you can wisen up and see that Harper is the fool. This is a sellout. Let’s hope that the provinces don’t go along with it.
