"I welcome today’s resolution, which highlights progress in negotiations for an EU trade agreement with Canada. Canada is an important potential trading partner for the EU, and both parties will profit from such an agreement. However, there are some concerns which the Commission needs to take into account: the environmental impact of extracting oil from tar sands and the health of workers mining asbestos are just two issues which need to be looked at carefully. I support calls for Canada to withdraw its WTO challenge on the EU’s ban on seal products and am pleased that amendments outlining this position were adopted by Parliament. The Commission also needs to take a strong position to protect the ban. Intellectual property rights must also be adhered to with the use of trademarks and patents. I am confident that these problems will be dealt with and taken into account by the Commission and that an effective trade agreement will be agreed."@en1
