Just as a heads up:
There's major disagreement in the EU about CETA, essentially Junker wants to push it through while multiple countries are already so unhappy they want to vote on it in their national parliaments (which will likely kill it due to popular resistance).
Meanwhile TTIP will likely fail as soon as Obama leaves office and it's nowhere near done, plus the EU and US cannot agree on many key points. For example the EU wants EU companies to bid on US government contracts which the US rejects and the EU wants its protected origin designations (basically any item with a location in the name must be produced in that location or drop the name, e.g. champagne must be produced in the Champagne region) which the US of course doesn't want. Also popular pressure in the EU has made it insist that the investor dispute system be run by courts, not arbitrators. There's been no movement on major points in a while so they won't be agreeing any time soon.
Sorry, sources in German, all the English news I see seems to be so occupied with the Brexit that this topic is being ignored:
Juncker earning massive protests over attempt to push CETA past national parliaments
TTIP failure predicted
