Making a Bad Situation Worse is an expert analysis of the text of the
Canada/Colombia FTA, produced by Canadian Council for International Co-operation, the Canadian Association of Labour
Lawyers, the Canadian Labour Congress and the Canadian Centre for Policy
Alternatives. While trade can support development and the realization of human
rights, the authors find that neither the political conditions in Colombia, nor
the terms of this FTA meet the criteria that would allow that to happen.

The CCPA’s bold vision and creative solutions help us imagine better futures for all. Its efforts to build bridges between labour, industry, and civil society and mentor young activists lay the foundation for realizing those provocative futures. I consider my support for the CCPA an investment in a better future for British Columbia.
