ceta crossed out2The CETA agreement could be with us as early as May 13th  and is a far more pressing danger than the TTIP even if it is far less well known. The following is a list of documents useful to those of us keen to know its implications, it’s from a mostly Canadian perspective, but it’ll be quicker to read than the entire 1598 pages of the CETA agreement itself. We’re sure you can draw your own conclusions
