Mr. Harper -
I am strongly opposed to the undemocratic FIPA agreement which your government plans to finalize with the Chinese government today!
Do you not understand its significance???
This trade-investment deal will hamstring this country for the next 30 plus years, setting us up for endless lawsuits if things don't go the way the Chinese want!
It will give a foreign country and foreign corporations more power than our democratically elected governments.
Any Corporations operating on Canadian soil must adhere to the changing rule of law sanctioned by Canadians.
I am not in agreement with any 31-year binding contract and I'm certainly opposed to this ridiculous, absurd scheme.
How can you not be concerned?
