CAFTA The Trojan Calf
Primary tabs
Because it is such a broad issue, free trade is a difficult topic to convey to the public. In it's struggle to oppose CAFTA- the Central American Free Trade Agreement, Quest for Peace has created a short flash film which it hopes will highlight some of those problems found in free trade agreements.

Dear friends,
Never thought international trade laws would make you laugh? Check this out: www.quixote.org/calf.Â
It's a biting two-minute movie called "CAFTA--The Trojan Calf" Its message-- that the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) has been presented to Central America as a gift, but like the Trojan Horse, its really a vehicle for American corporations, to secretly invade new markets. Its an important story that will keep you smiling, and hopefully inspire you to take action. (Make sure you watch for the kicker at then end!)Â
After watching the movie you can join with thousands of others in rejecting CAFTA by signing a full-page ad to appear in the NY Times the first week of June. Congress may vote on the agreement as early as July.Â
We hope you like the movie, and we encourage you to pass it along to your family and friends.Â
Enjoy the show!
