\"\"Status: Ratified 10 June 2020<\/h4>\n

Luxembourg has a unicameral system, requiring the Chambre des D\u00e9put\u00e9s to ratify CETA. CETA was ratified in May 2020, with formal notification of ratification in June 2020. Ratification was steered by a coalition government led by the Democratic Party, the Luxembourg Socialist Workers\u2019 Party and the Greens.<\/p>\n

Public debate<\/h4>\n

Contestation during CETA\u2019s ratification in Luxembourg was intensive, with centre-right opposition parties abstaining and smaller political parties opposing. There was a relatively large mobilization effort by opponent CSOs, arguing that CETA lacks transparency, environmental protection and that the investor-state dispute settlement provisions would result in labour rights and sustainable development being unenforceable. Opposing CSOs include the Mouvement Ecologique and Fairtrade L\u00ebtzebuerg and ULC Union Luxembourgeoise des Consommateurs.<\/p>\n

Trade data<\/h4>\n

Luxembourg had a trade deficit in goods trade with Canada of \u20ac10 million in 2021 (Eurostat<\/a>). Imports from Canada were \u20ac112 million, 4.7% of Luxembourg’s imports from outside the EU . Exports were \u20ac124 million, 4.6% of Luxembourg’s extra-EU exports (Eurostat<\/a>). Canada-Luxembourg bilateral goods trade (imports + exports) decreased by \u20ac106 million, 33.6%, between 2016 and 2019 (Statistics Canada<\/a>).<\/p>\n
