The ~ Coalition against Free Trade is made up of trade union, church, women’s and anti- poverty organizations as well as the CoC. Across the country, opponents of free trade are organizing for what will be the most critical several months of the cam- paign. A key meeting is set for Jan. 16 and 17 when the Pro-Canada Network, the broad coalition established last year, gathers in Ottawa to map a country-wide campaign against the pact.

Although the free trade agreement itself does not have to be ratified by Parliament, the House of Commons will have to pass enabling legislation including amendments to various pieces of existing legislation. A confidential government agenda cited last month by CoC honorary chairmen Mel Hurtig indicated that the Conservative government plans to introduce an omnibus bill but the Tories could alter that in the face of Liberal and NDP opposition. Both the New Democrats and the Liber- als have pledged to use the rules of the House to fight the legislation in Parliament. The two opposition parties have also joined opponents outside Parliament in demand- ing that Mulroney call a federal election before implementing the free trade agree- ment. On Jan. 6, the Liberal government of Ontario Premier David Peterson endorsed a bill denouncing the free trade agreement as one which made “significant concessions which could prove costly to Canadians” and which failed to address Canada’s “needs and goals.” The resolution, which passed by a vote of 79-26, also stated that the government would “not be bound” to pass any provin- cial legislation necessary to implement the free trade deal. The government majority rejected two NDP amendments, one which called for an immediate court challenge and another which would have committed the govern- ment not to implement any part of the agreement covered by provincial jurisdic- tion.
