The Softwood Lumber Deal Should Be Canada's Signal To Get Out Of NAFTA

"NAFTA regulations prevent Canada from exporting oil from Alberta to the rest of Canada before sending it along to other markets."



"'NAFTA is definitely not working," said Laxer. "We were supposed to get guaranteed access [to U.S. markets] in return for giving up energy sovereignty and control over foreign ownership.' But this hasn't happened, Laxer added, and softwood lumber is strong evidence that the original promise isn't being upheld."

I was sitting with John Searle, a Berkeley philosopher who studies consciousness. While we were talking, Ray approached and a conversation began, the subject of which haunts me to this day.
