"Mr President, today, we voted through the last in a long line of free trade agreement texts. Fortunately, Parliament is, on the whole, still in favour of free trade, and that also applies to the agreement with Canada. However, the demand for sector-specific analyses comes up again and again. The impact assessment for the EU-Canada agreement indicates clear benefits for both sides. Sector-specific analyses are simply a way of looking for a reason to say no, because the truth is there will always be both winners and losers. It is our responsibility to do what is best for the majority. Free trade is best for consumers as it provides greater choice and lower prices. It is best for businesses because it extends their market and creates growth and jobs. Free trade is the international division of labour, ensuring that we all do what we are best at, while allowing everyone else to do what they are best at."@en1
