End of the Week Thursday Report.

[Klause]

The two important concessions gained are apparently regarding intellectual property rights around drugs (suspension of rules that would have extended copyright protection) and suspension of rules that would have allowed foreign investors to sue the Canadian Government if things don't pan out for them. I haven't read the details either but these are two of the concessions claimed as a result of holding off agreeing earlier.

Where did you read this?


It would be a welcome development but I don't believe any politicians in this country have the foresight... especially since we left the dairy concessions in the agreement (you know, the one's America wanted... before they dropped out of the agreement).

It was in a Globe and Mail article and these claims were made by a spokesman for the Government. It does look encouraging but the devil is in the detail with these kind of agreements.

Just got the call i guess Saskatoon got a nice dump of snow, well at least in the City. We have maybe a inch in Regina no half the neighbour is using a blower to clean his driveway. Across the valley looks more.

We lost our advantage when boy blunder forgot to show up at the meeting in Vietnam.
We were informed the other countries were all signing without us if we didn’t sign.

Says who? As for the dairy concessions to the US I'll remind you those concessions were given by the Harper Government back in 2015 - long before the TPP was anywhere near concluded. So who played the weak hand?

[SASKFARMER3]
