(Hi fellows. As discussed with many of you in July, here is a call for all

> letter, sending it to your government -alone or with a national/local
> coalition- and forward it to organisations and movements who could be
> interested to join.

> We welcome that our friends in Canada are planning similar and

> 1 – Sign an *open letter <http://www.s2bnetwork.org/ceta-open-letter/>*

>
> 2 – Publish a *press release* *and tweet/ blog and facebook *about CETA
> Share your letter with citizens and the media by imbedding it into a press
> release. Consider tweeting policymakers to ask them if they will act to
> stop CETA and encourage your social media communities to also send the open
> letter as well as share it onwards. Consider tweeting policymakers to ask

> translate it or adapt it).
> 3 – Take part in the the international days of action
> <https://www.trade4people.org/> *“Trade 4 people”* from 10 to 17 October,
> with the message“To stop TTIP, let’s stop CETA”. Several movements are
> already planning mobilisations to stop TTIP and CETA on that week. Please
> join in, organise a local mobilization and think of creating actions,
> banners and messages related to CETA and/or CETA and TTIP! You can also do
> a smaller symbolic action on the 25 September to build up for the October
> actions. Examples of actions planned and material are available on
> www.trade4people.org

> *The more people know about CETA, the less they will accept it!*

> Further tools that you may find useful :
>
> §  A short video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zd_WQ21iKI8> explaining
> clearly how CETA could affect all of us. It is available in English and
> German <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrXbXGBwd_I> for now. If you
> would like to translate it into *your own language(s), you can add
> subtitles to it yourself or contact Campact <strasser en campact.de> who had
> this video produced, to see how a full translation of the video is
> possible.*

> §  Join the *week of activities on investment and CETA,* November 9 to 14

> §  Ask your local authority declare itself *“TTIP and CETA free”*? If

> §  Last but no least when writing, communicating or talking about ‘stop
> TTIP’ *please include ‘and CETA’!*
