"Mr President, I voted against CETA today. CETA negotiations were done behind closed doors, between the unelected Commission and the Canadian Government. On 14 October last year, the regional parliament of Wallonia in Belgium voted to block CETA. However, two weeks later, the Canadian Prime Minister was in Belgium signing the deal with the Commission. We do not fully know what was discussed behind closed doors, as is always the case with the Commission, but we do know that the documents were signed, despite elected representatives saying ‘no’ and the people saying ‘no’. Welcome to democracy, EU style. CETA has not been designed to benefit my constituents. Instead it benefits big business and global cooperation."@en1
