When journalists intentionally with hold information like this from the public it is treason as far as Im concerned. No reporting on this from the CBC at all. Nothing mentioned on CTV. Nothing on Global. Its a mutual agreement between the corporate & government run media not to disclose this information for fear of public backlash against #CETA, selling out our country, our resources, our sovereignty to foreign interests just to pad the wallets of some unpatriotic fat cat douchebags.

Water Privatization Case Study: Cochabamba, Bolivia

In February and March of 2000, protests broke out in Cochabamba, Bolivia, in response to the skyrocketing price of water. Many people saw their bills triple or even quadruple, just weeks after Aguas del Tunari, a private company owned by London-based multinational International Water Ltd., took over the city’s water system.
For thousands of families, the rate hike meant up to half of their monthly income went to paying for water.1

Unable to survive under these conditions, the citizens demanded that the water contract be terminated. After suffering civil rights abuses, injuries and even death at the hands of the police and military, the protesters were heard and their water rights were restored.
