Hardly: CETA doesn't affect immigration and is pretty similar to the sort of trade deal the UK might want. The "single market" isn't as impressive as people like to make out. It's primarily oriented towards trade in goods i.e. what Germany wants and progress on trade in services i.e. what the UK wants has been very slow and sometimes goes backwards. The EU has made selling software or any digital items over the internet to EU member countries vastly harder than it used to be: it's actually easier to sell into the EU over the internet from outside it, which is madness.
