{UAH} TPP trade deal talks move forward despite Canada wobble

Friends

 

This is what I kept on raising to your attention. All day yesterday BBC spent the day preaching how TPP moved forward, in fact they used a term "Canada wobbled out". That information that Gook posted from BBC was actually fake news, pumped out by BBC to depict president Trump as a failure. They wanted to show that Trump's walking out of the TPP does not mean the arrangement will not move forward.  They decided to use their television station to lie to their listeners, in order to show Trump as a failed man. And sadly Gook jumped right on it and he started to spread it publicly. For the record, The TPP talks actually collapsed, and they did not collapse for United States is not involved, they collapsed for Canada pulled out. When you pull United States out, you remain with Canada as the main contributor to the organization, when Canada pulls out the rest of the countries are Bure. As you read this writing, TPP to move forward, it needs Canada back on the table, and as long as we are off the table, TPP is an empty arrangement.

 

I get very angry when any one manipulates information for he/she controls its flow to lie to the masses. BBC should honestly know better than this.

 

Trans-Pacific Partnership talks collapse after Canada pulls out of trade deal

---

Talks to revive the Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade pact have effectively collapsed after Canada pulled out.

The talks have been postponed indefinitely.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern made the surprise announcement in Vietnam on Friday night, revealing Canada had not shown up for the talks between the remaining 11 nations in the TPP.

"It is true that Canada did not attend that meeting and those talks have now been postponed. We have no update on when they are likely to convene," she said.

New Zealand had made good progress on contentious investor-state disputes resolution clauses and preserving market access, she said.

An earlier issue over wording, thought to involve Vietnam, has been resolved.

Ardern said Canada had withdrawn at this point.

"We walked into a meeting and they were the only one absent."

Discussions would not continue without Canada, she said.

Ardern said she could not give a clear indication of Canada's final position because they were not at the table to explain it.

She could not say whether the postponement was for days or weeks or longer and could not say which part of the pact Canada had issues with.

Ardern has a one-on-one meeting scheduled with Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the East Asia Summit in Manila, in the Philippines, starting on Sunday, and would take that option up.

She was also set to meet him at an Apec dinner later on Friday, and on Saturday in Vietnam.

It's understood Canada, the second largest economy in the TPP since the United States withdrew, had been in bilateral talks with Japan on role difference before Trudeau's no show at the meeting.

Trade and Export Growth Minister David Parker said that on Thursday night it had appeared all Canada's issues had been resolved to its satisfaction.

"That seemed to change today."

Parker said other countries in the room, including Australia, were surprised by Canada's non-appearance.

Asked if TPP was now finished and had lost momentum, Ardern said that would be guess work.

"It's difficult to say what position Canada will take from here. It's a significantly different deal without Canada in it."

She said New Zealand had gone into the talks to be constructive and had made some good gain and that it would be disappointing for New Zealand exporters.

"But we can't control the decisions of other countries. No-one at that table could."
