00:00During a visit to Canada, French President Emmanuel Macron affirmed the EU-Canada Comprehensive
00:06Economic and Trade Agreement, or CETA, calling it a very good agreement that will ultimately
00:12be ratified.
00:14Despite controversy from a recent rejection by the French Senate, he noted that this does
00:19not affect CETA's provisional implementation, which is nearly complete.
00:24Macron argued that opposition to CETA indicates a reluctance to engage in future trade agreements,
00:30emphasizing that the data supports its value.
