PalastUS/Can/Mex Open Gateway to Dumping Low-Q Chinese Goods
Greg Palast’s latest column discusses a secret summit among the Presidents of the US and Mexico and Canada’s Prime Minister along with heads of major corporations to further push the NAFTA trade agenda.
Here’s the part I find really disturbing-=both as a union member (NWU) and as a consumer:
As trade expert Maude Barlow explained to me, the new NAFTA Highway will allow Chinese stuff dumped into Mexico to be hauled northward as duty-free “Mexican” products. That’s one of the quiet aims of this “Summit for Security and Prosperity,” the official Orwellian name for this meet. Think of the SPP “harmonization” as the Trojan Taco of trade with China.
It’s not a long article. Go and read it.
