    Trump kick starts process to renegotiate NAFTA trade deal
  • On May 19, the Trump administration formally informed the US Congress of its intention to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with Canada and Mexico.

    The letter to Congress took forward Trump's long-time campaign promise to reform the deal signed in the 1990s.

    Trump had previously threatened to cancel the pact, which he described as a job "killer" and "a total disaster."

  • Information

    What is NAFTA?

  • NAFTA was signed by US President Bill Clinton in 1993 and implemented in 1994. The agreement eliminated tariffs on most goods traded between US, Canada and Mexico and expanded trade among them.

  • Trump said a new trade pact with Canada, excluding Mexico, would be aimed at protecting both countries' workers.

    The latest round of talks to renegotiate NAFTA have reportedly stalled as Mexico opposes the US' move to increase the proportion of American-made components in car manufacturing.

    Mexico earlier said terminating NAFTA would damage US-Mexico relations, affecting cooperation on drug-trafficking and other issues.

  • Information

    Trudeau still believes NAFTA renegotiations could be successful

  • US and Mexican officials want the deal renegotiated by December. Trudeau contends NAFTA renegotiations could still result in a "win, win, win." However, he said Canada must "be ready for anything" if talks faltered. In 2016, trade between the NAFTA countries reached $1.1 trillion.

  • Earlier this week, the powerful US Chamber of Commerce warned the time to "ring alarm bells" over the NAFTA talks had come.

    The business lobby says the Trump administration has put forth "several poison pill proposals" which could torpedo the talks.

    This includes a contentious US demand that goods manufactured in the other country should contain more American-made parts to qualify as duty-free.
