Green Party Warns Of Hidden Agenda

She said that the Security and Prosperity Partnership operates in a world of secrecy with an agenda advancing by stealth. In fact, the news that the next Canada-US-Mexico summit will take place in Canada (August 21-22 at the Chateau Montebello in Quebec) came through Mexican and US sources and remains unconfirmed by Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Ms. May also denounced the decision of the parliamentary committee examining the SPP to reject the Green Party's application to testify. "The committee should be seeking the widest possible input on this important issue," she said. "The Security and Prosperity Partnership has serious implications for every aspect of Canadian life. It will affect our energy policies, social programmes, environmental enforcement and much more. "The hidden agenda on Canada's water is just one of the issues that needs to be brought out from behind the closed doors of the SPP meetings and into the full light of informed public discussion." http://www.greenparty.ca/en/releases/15.05.2007 [Proofreader's note: this article was edited for spelling and typos on May 16, 2007]
