"It's A Trojan Horse In A Global Race To The Bottom"

That's how Former Secretary of Labour Robert Reich, in this brief but very illuminating explanation, describes the Trans Pacific Partnership, approved by the Harper government but not yet ratified. It will be the first real test of how well the new Trudeau government listens to people.

  1. Reich ha been fighting a lonely battle, Lorne. He knows exactly what's going on. But, like the superb teacher he is, he keeps trying to educate ordinary folks. I hope he succeeds.

    1. I have watched several videos featuring Reich, Owen, including the documentary Inequality For All. He is a truly gifted teacher, but, as you suggest, his students are not always apt.

  2. From everything I have read and heard about the TPP, Anon, there are far more losers than winners.
