Ezra Levant of TheRebel.media looks at the NDP and Liberal reaction to the TransPacifice Partnership (TPP) trade deal signed by Conservative Stephen Harper just two weeks before the Canadian election.

The NDP's Thomas Mulcair was quick to denounce the deal, while Liberal leader Justin Trudeau said he'd respond after the election. Both said they were put off by the "secrecy" surrounding the negotiations, as if you'd go into any negotiation by making your positions clear in advance!

But here's the thing: Canada's non-partisan Privy Council Office offered Mulcair and Trudeau a confidential briefing on the TPP details before they are finalized -- but they turned it down! Of course they did: Levant explains why, and why it matters.
