The Wallonian parliament has rejected CETA as it stands, which means that Belgium can not sign on to CETA.  As a consequence, unless the Walloons have a change of heart CETA will not go forward.  

This is tremendous news for all of us who view CETA as an assault on our democratic right to govern ourselves.
