A coalition of environmental groups yesterday accused Canada, Mexico, 
and the U.S. of holding secret talks that could weaken environmental 
protection under the North American Free Trade Agreement.  The enviros 
accuse Canada of leading a charge to weaken the Commission for 
Environmental Cooperation, an environmental watchdog set up under NAFTA 
to make sure the three trading nations are adequately enforcing their 
environmental laws.  In a letter sent to government ministers, 91 green 
groups called on the three countries to immediately end their 
closed-door negotiations, which have apparently gone on for 10 months.
