Harper has said that the legislation to enact the July 1 deal, to be introduced in September, will be scuttled if the vast majority of forestry companies don't drop their legal actions and accept the accord.
However, Bloomberg news service reported Thursday that Canada has lowered its demands for industry support of the accord.
Industry executives briefed by the government said International Trade Minister David Emerson is no longer requiring 95 per cent industry support. Instead, he's only seeking "substantial" support.

Oh great, this means that Harper will continue to support mass murder, state sponsored terrorism by the USA, Britain and Israel, false flag terrorism, a decade long war in Afghanistan, and a continued trend towards fascism.
If he doesn't go with the program he'll lose all those "private sector" perks and rewards he's virtually assured of when he get's canned from his present job as Canada's Leading Quisling.
