Mr. Speaker, the last petition I have to present is on the issue of the MAI.
The petitioners recognize that it is on hold until October. They point out a whole number of reasons why they do not like the MAI as they understand it.
They are calling upon parliament to reject the current framework and to instruct the government to seek an entirely different agreement by which the world might achieve a rules based global trading regime that protects workers, the environment and the ability of governments to act in the public interest, something rather unusual.
