Early February, the Liberal government introduced Bill C-69, An Act to enact the Impact Assessment Act and the Canadian Energy Regulator Act, to amend the Navigation Protection Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts, which in its current form would make sweeping changes to Canada’s water, environmental and energy legislation.
While the Council of Canadians has campaigned for years against Chapter 11 - the investor-state dispute settlement provision in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) - because it is most commonly used by transnational corporations to curb environmental laws and other public interest legislation, why does the pro-corporate Trump administration oppose it?
