Ceta: EU and Canada sign long-delayed free trade deal

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-37814884

Canada and the EU have signed a much anticipated trade agreement over the weekend that has been riddled with delays. The trade deal will be known as CETA or the Comprehensive Economic and Trade agreement. The negotiation process required all 28 members of the EU to sign and cut 99% of tariffs between the two countries and is expected to generate nearly 12 billion dollars a year. The EU is happy to open new relations and trade deals in the aftermath of Brexit and the consequences brought on by that loss of trade.
