Mr. Speaker, second, I have petitions from residents of Waterloo, Ontario; Victoria, British Columbia; and other locations, calling upon the Prime Minister and his cabinet to refuse to ratify the treaty that now sits before them between Canada and China. It is not a trade treaty. It is an investor protection agreement that will provide the People's Republic of China the right to challenge domestic Canadian laws that protect the environment, health, labour rights and so on.
In the House of Commons on March 21st, 2013. See this statement in context.
