NDP trade critic Tracey Ramsey is calling for transparency from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau surrounding a new Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement, the CPTPP.

鈥淐anadians should not be the last to hear what international agreements you are signing them onto,鈥� the Essex MP writes in the .

鈥淚t is time for your government to be fully transparent, release all available details about the state of current negotiations, and disclose to Canadians exactly how the CPTPP is different from the old TPP," she writes.

The new Trans-Pacific Partnership, called the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, is a resurrected version of the first partnership that never came into effect after the withdrawal of the United States.

In the new letter, Ramsey outlines findings presented last year from consultations held by the , during which they heard from more than 400 witnesses, she writes, and received written remarks from more than 60,000 people. The majority 鈥� 95 per cent of Canadians consulted 鈥� expressed disapproval of the TPP.

Beyond the public consultations, experts too have expressed concern around the potential agreement, she writes, citing a study form the at Tufts University, which said Canada could lose 58,000 jobs due to 鈥渃oncessions that could severely impair our automobile industry and our supply management system,鈥� Ramsey writes. 鈥淓ven though your government has clearly signalled it will sign onto a revised TPP, Canadians have heard nothing about the details of this new agreement.鈥�

She also cites a summary from the government of New Zealand outlining the differences between the old text of the TPP and the new version, CPTPP. 鈥淎ccording to these details,鈥� she writes, 鈥渢here seem to be changes to provisions relating to intellectual property, government procurement, and investor-state provisions. It is not clear how and if any of these changes will affect Canada.鈥�

Ramsey further expresses her concern in the letter for 鈥渢roubling provisions鈥� around privacy, intellectual property and control of Canadian businesses by foreign parties.

This is not Ramsey鈥檚 first call for TPP transparency. In a on the NDP website, she wrote that 鈥淐anadians deserve clear and definitive answers on what is included in this deal, a government that respects their will, and a government that does not negotiate trade deals behind closed doors.鈥�

Speaking to reporters earlier this month, Ramsey called on the Liberal government to release details around the new TPP deal and explain its alternative plans if NAFTA talks fail. As she does in the new letter, Ramsey expressed concern about the agreement鈥檚 potential impact on Canada's automotive sector, but said that it is not possible to say whether the NDP would support or oppose the text without seeing it.

"What is TPP?" she said. "At this point, I can't say that without getting my eyes on the agreement."
