MAUDE BARLOWE
Maude Barlow is the Chairperson of the Council of Canadians, an activist
organisation with 100,000 members working to preserve Canada's social
programs, culture, wilderness and domestic regulatory powers. She is also a
Director of the International Forum on Globalisation and has been listed by
the New Internationalist magazine as one of six key economic thinkers who
have dared challenge dominant economic views. She is co-author of the book
The MAI and the Threat to Canadian Sovereignty (Stoddart Publishing, Toronto).
Maude has been involved for a decade in campaigns around free trade
agreements in the Americas, especially the North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) and was a key international campaigner against the
Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI).
She visited Australia in June 2000, addressing a conference in Melbourne on
the globalisation of arts & culture, and presenting a public lecture
entitled What's Wrong with Free Trade?, held at the University of Sydney on
June 27, 2000.
On today's program, you'll hear excerpts from the Sydney lecture, which was
sponsored by the Australian Fair Trade and Investment Network (AFTINET).
Thanks to Patricia Ranald, Principal Policy Officer at the Public Interest
Advocacy Centre (PIAC) for permission to use this material & to 3CR's Helen
