Today the law was on rayless side you dont just have to look at the constitution and elections act but can is elections actually governed by five different bodies of law and looking at all those things and together at least on paper by nine a. M. This morning the law was on his side what changed was the fact that we had another election petition filed by one of the candidates who conceded the august eighth election i could do a court and in that decision the high court basically said everybody gets to be on the ballot and we have again with the candidates that we had in june and august version of the elections or and that basically throws raynas gabble into disarray into disarray because its basically says. Instead of what the previous regime said which is what one candidate pulls out of a rerun we have to go back to nominations now theyre saying well well just do the same thing that we did in august all over again and its not clear how the commission is going to move forward because these two pieces of law dont exactly read well together spain is given a cut Alliance Leader carlos put them out until monday to say whether or not he has declared independence if catalonia does press on with the session the Spanish Government says it will take away the regions political autonomy lawrence lee has more from madrid. Madrid does not like being told what to do by the cattle lands for once parliament was united as the journalist speculated the cabinets agreed the spanish lion bit back against the cattle and demand that their independence will happen the Prime Minister said you say it out loud and we will take back your powers no dice no deal and you have until monday. Youve held a Cabinet Meeting and weve decided the cattle government must confirm whether or not they have declared independence regardless of whether its going to take effect or not this is a requirement necessary before any other measures can be taken by the government including invoking article one if you divide. So back it goes to barcelona madrid no society there is split some separatist wants a session now others are nervous half the population hates the whole idea how long should they wait we know there are very important governments and people around the world who are ready to assist in mediation weve got the group of the elders with coffee with a bank you move on with that one to two who are ready to exercise their mediation the only small detail which we are missing is that we have nobody on the other side of the table because i just said he was not accepting mediation. All the while europe looks on surely not another country fracturing itself there is no support at all in brussels for the Catalan Independence movements madrid knows that it is the side with the powerful friends. Many people in madrid regard roys statements his demand that catalonia clarify its position on independence as a shrewd one by putting the ball straight back in catalonia courts it potentially exposes divisions inside the independence movements that might buy madrid some time take the pressure out of the immediate situation but also leave the crisis open ended. Where the protesters in barcelona go from here is a good question madrid would like nothing more than for them to turn on each other destroy their own movements that would rule out the need for mediation which madrid insists there is no place Laurence Li Al Jazeera which it so where can catalonia scoreless from here to the hall takes a look we dont know what hes going to say or when hes going to say it we havent a hint of what the governments position might be from an interview with aljazeera by a Senior Member of his coalition in which he basically says look what theyre offering here is dialogue without preconditions theyre talking about a framework for mediation that really doesnt have a lot of distance to travel because madrid has consistently said theres no place for mediation mr a hole in parliament reiterated that on wednesday afternoon there is however another avenue of talks which may have opened up that comes courtesy of the head of the socialist party the main opposition in madrid saying that hes reached an agreement with roy in the Popular Party to set up a commission in parliament to spend six months looking at constitutional reforms in the way that the regions are government but basically to give them more autonomy now this begins to look like a real enticement to the catalans to mr policeman in terms of saying there is a way for you to end up with a constitutional settlement with greater autonomy but the price for that will be to give up independence altogether and that is a price that may be too high for mr amount to pay.

With with. Canadas Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau has wrapped up his trip to washington d. C. A visit dominated by the future of the north American Free trade agreement u. S. President donald trump suggested the tough talks to rework nafta could fail and then mexico might be dumped from the three kountry pact but mystic about the negotiations saying the meeting with trump went well the talks were held against the backdrop of another trade dispute over a hefty duties the u. S. A slap on canadian made airplanes alan fischer pasmore from washington d. C. With the forefront of talks aimed at drawing up a new north American Free trade agreement underway here in Washington CanadianPrime Minister justin to door came to meet with President Donald Trump the donald trump has been on the record since the moment he moved into the white house that he would like to see a new nothe agreement an agreement that has been in place for almost twenty five years and both canada and mexico see until this point has been walking relatively well but top wants to see a new modernized agreement and Justin Trudeau a says that is understandable in the circumstances but while donald trump says he may want to walk away Justin Trudeau believes there is the possibility that they can come up with a new deal and he says its up to the politicians to convince people why it is such a good thing. Part of getting these trade deals to move forward requires us to get support public support for these trade deals and demonstrating that were hearing the concerns that people feel and responding to them i think helps significantly in making the case that trade can and will be good for all citizens before Justin Trudeau came here to the Canadian Embassy to address the media he was sitting in the oval office with donald trump at that point donald trump said whether or not there was a new deal really still is in the hands of the negotiator so its possible we wont be able to make a deal and its possible that we will we have a great personal relationship and we have a relationship now as as two countries i think theyre just close as ever but well see if we can do the kind of changes that we need we have to protect our workers and in all fairness the Prime Minister wants to protect canada and his people also the three governments have set a time scale of the end of the year to come up with a new nafta agreement Justin Trudeau is Still Believes that possible but he will go from here in washington to mexico will meet with the president to discuss the progress in the talks and what to do if it cant be an agreement. Writer now in washington d. C. He is out a serious political contributor and a Public Policy professor at George Mason University bill always good to talk to you has has us president been actually clear about what it is he will wants reworked about nafta he said you know general things like protecting workers but has it really been clear beyond just talking about it on the campaign trail in generalities well a lot of people think a lot of Business People think that this is all a pretext for getting out of the nafta deal i mean a relations between the United States and canada which are always assumed to be very close are probably at the poorest level theyve been in our lifetime for many decades and it took donald trump to make that happen a lot of Business Leaders in the u. S. Chamber of commerce normally a staunchly Republican Organization things that trump is trying to use these negotiations as a pretext to kill nuff to Justin Trudeau actually also met with the house ways and Means Committee you know trying to to make to get some progress on these negotiations how unusual is that for the leader of another country to meet with members of congress in that capacity. Well its not that unusual i mean israelis do or the world what these really Prime Minister actually spoke to the members of Congress Without even writing a great one that about him because. So its not entirely unusual and here is sort of a strange situation because there is a civil war going on in the Republican Party between the president republican President Donald Trump and the republican establishment in congress the republican establishment is very close to business but this is a deal the nafta the idea of killing nafta is anathema to business it would create chaos in a lot of American Industries farming and particularly automobiles and they are dead set against ending nafta and you know who supports ending nafta labor unions who are not normally allies of many republicans so many say that that there are a lot of differences between a lots of members in congress and and donald trump on this is that the reason that Justin Trudeau said im just going to take it straight to to congress to see if i can get some allies and theyre on my side exactly because hes likely to find a lot of allies in congress including republicans who have become increasingly critical of President Trump and republicans who are very close to business and have very good relationships and often get a lot of money from u. S. Businesses and particularly the chamber of commerce bill who else how is this i say there are other countries that are paying attention to how this is going how this is playing out publicly the fact that you know donald trump may be looking to get out of an agreement that seems to benefit all parties for for twenty five years what are they getting out of that this countrys what are they looking for. Well theyre looking for some evidence of the United States is committed that the Trump Administration is committed to upholding americas role in the world that weve always been a good trading partner a good Security Partner he doesnt seem to be interested in any of that person doesnt mean anything to him that is things that have happened in the past hes willing to overturn everything and the third partner in this mexico of course is in a lot of danger here because of its relationship with the United States if nafta ends that could be a very very bitter note between the United States and mexico which is where Justin Trudeau is headed next ok Bill Schneider live from washington thank you turkeys deputy Prime Minister says recent diplomatic tensions with the United States are overblown last week the u. S. Embassy in ankara suspended faces services after eight local staff member was detained accused of links to last years failed coup and response turkey stopped issuing visas from Consular Services in the u.
