    Both were international efforts that took decades in the making and basically brought industries and their government lackeys to get to the table in a global forum in order to do something about it. Both efforts came about through the efforts of international advocates and representatives basically forcing so many leaders to deal with obvious problems and then take years to institute and agree to change.

    In all that time, instead of taking the time to quickly deal with these international concerns, they spent years arguing while at the same time holding a fire sale of the Canadian economy to corporate interest and privatizing everything that was good about our country. A privatization gamble that we lost years ago and have since been trying to recover from ever since … and we’re still fighting against it today. That is Mulroney’s great legacy.
