You mentioned how we got out of it in the CUSMA. Chrystia Freeland said, “ISDS elevates the rights of corporations over those of sovereign governments. In removing it, we have strengthened our government's right to regulate in the public interest”.
Why we don't do that every time is my question. Lately, we've been putting other language into FTAs to say that nothing in the agreement affects either party's right to bring in legislation in its own public interest, environmental interests, human rights, whatever, but it doesn't seem to work.
Can you maybe mention some of the cases there and what the problem is?
