OTTAWA – The Standing Committee on International Trade will hold the first ever hearings on the so-called "Security and Prosperity Partnership" (SPP) of North America thanks to the efforts of NDP International Trade Critic Peter Julian (Burnaby - New Westminster). Julian is pleased that he succeeded in bringing this before the committee and that the members will have the opportunity to study the North American deep integration project that has until now been discussed only behind closed boardroom doors. The televised hearings will be held on April 26, May 1st and 3rd, 2007 in Ottawa.
“This is the only the beginning,” stated Julian. “We must have a full and accountable public debate and expose the entire agenda around the SPP. The NDP will continue to push for full parliamentary oversight and public disclosure of SPP”.
