Article:
The Free Trade of the Americas draft text, the one sought by protesters
before the A22 Summit of the Americas that took place in Quebec City this
year, has finally been released to the general public. It is available at
this Government of Canada website, and is approximately 900 pages long in
all. It\'s broken down into chapters and FAQ\'s, but it\'s still a hefty
read I\'m sure.
