Green Party Releases International Joint Statement Criticizing the TPP

Posted by Unknown on Monday August 20, 2012 @04:06PM from the save-the-whales dept.

Dangerous_Minds writes "The New Zealand, Australian, and Canadian Green Parties have released a joint statement on the secretive Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement (TPP). Among the concerns are the secretive nature of the talks and 'could hinder access to safe, affordable medicines, weaken local content rules for media, stifle high-tech innovation, and even restrict the ability of future governments to legislate for the good of public health and the environment.' ZeroPaid also notes that the statement is starting to appear in New Zealand and Australian media."

To become a NZ green party astroturfer... oh I'm sorry, I mean activist. https://my.greens.org.nz/greenmachine/become-an-online-activist
Always consider the messenger. There's a reason why online polls tend to favor the far left view.

I wonder how long this post is going to be readable??
