Canada-EU trade talks going well, minister says
http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/story/2011/07/15/pol-eu-trade-deal.html?ref=rss

Canada and the European Union completed another round of negotiations this week on the free trade deal the government is aiming to seal by next year.

Canada and the European Union have completed another round of negotiations on the free trade deal that the government is aiming to seal by next year — with International Trade Minister Ed Fast saying officials made "ambitious offers" on goods and government procurements.

International Trade Minister Ed Fast said Friday that officials in Brussels for the eighth round of talks made "ambitious offers" on goods and government procurement and that talks are continuing to move forward. The goal is to complete the major trade deal by 2012.

“We are making important progress as we move closer toward an agreement that has the potential to dramatically boost two-way trade and create jobs and prosperity in all regions of Canada,” he said.
