US Ratifies New "Revised" North American Free Trade Agreement

Ok it's satire and it is from August 29th, 2005. Still not much has changed. Martin is still tut - tutting though he hasn't said much in the last week about the softwood agreement. Harper wants to go down to Crawford Texas, no not to fill the vacancy left when the Village lost Bush to Washington, but to help clean up the bushes on his buddy's spread.

"The United States' refusal to accept any and all of the legally binding rulings regarding its illegal imposition of tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber imports has raised the ire of many Canadians. While several members of the Martin cabinet and business leaders are calling for retaliatory measures -- such as finger-pointing or a good tut-tutting-against the US for their wanton flouting of the NAFTA appeal panel's ultimate ruling, the Bush administration says it has found a resolution to the dispute, as well as all trade disagreements between the two countries." - read the rest at The Hammer
