    (OTTAWA) – Elizabeth May, Leader of the Green Party of Canada (MP, Saanich-Gulf Islands), is calling on Canada to strengthen environmental protections and ensure our public healthcare system, water and other resources aren’t threatened in the upcoming NAFTA renegotiation:

    “As Canada enters a renegotiation of NAFTA, we have an important opportunity to address its negative impacts. It is time we rethink how structure free trade. Trade isn’t just about the export and import of goods and services. Trade agreements also impact human rights, labour standards, cultural diversity, environmental laws, and even constitutional rights."
