Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Narrator:
As 34 nations of the Western Hemisphere gathered to draft a far reaching trade agreement, one that would lay the groundwork to privatise every resource and service imaginable, thousands of people from hundreds of grassroots organisations joined to oppose it. Canada's top business lobbyists and its chief trade representative discount the dissent in the streets. For them, the America's 800 million citizens speak with one voice.
Thomas D'Aquino:
Nice to see you. Well done on your strong advocacy of truth, justice, wisdom and all those things, eh.
Pierre Pettigrew:
I was looking yesterday at the statements at the inauguration and opening ceremony. What an extraordinary progress over the last 15 years. When you heard such a common language. Yes, and from the most developed to the least. It was extraordinary that now that we see the benefits of trade, more and more people want to buy in. Because we do realise that it helps everyone. From the poorer to the better off.
Robert Keyes:
A lot of these countries are not saying they want to get off, they want to get on.
Pierre Pettigrew:
Exactly, no one wants out, everyone wants in.
