US / Mexico Trade Deal - Canada Will Have to Beg Now - Good Job Justine

Trump understood the simple math that countries with which we have trade deficits would have to come to the negotiating table.



 Last year, the USA had a large $71 billion trade in goods deficit with Mexico, owing in part to much lower worker pay.  This new deal will limit Mexico's ability to take U.S. manufacturing jobs by underpaying workers.



This victory will lead to others.  The leftwing government of Canada, the other member of NAFTA, had refused to negotiate seriously, perhaps believing their friends in the progressive commentariat predicting Trump's demise.



Canada's foreign minister, Chrystia Freeland, spent most of her time on visits to the U.S. lobbying governors and congressmen rather than talking seriously to our trade negotiators.  Her boss, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, even though it was a good idea to antagonize Trump at his failed G7 summit in June.



Canada must now return, hat in hand, for a deal.  If not, Trump will advance the deal with Mexico and leave Canada behind.  Today he again vowed to raise car tariffs on Canada if it refuses to revise unfair levies of nearly 300 percent on some American goods, among other unfair practices.



The European Union and China will also be greatly concerned about the Mexico deal—and more likely to negotiate seriously.

The US/Mexico will force Mexico to pay higher wages to auto workers or cars will be made in Canada and the states.

The deal's provisions allow for import tariffs on cars and trucks that do not get at least 75 percent of their content from within the NAFTA region of the U.S., Canada and Mexico, or use a higher proportion of labor that makes at least $16 an hour. That provision would incent car makers to push more of their production into the U.S. or Canada from lower-wage Mexican plants, or buy more parts from outside of Mexico.

This then may not be the worst thing...

I am cautiously optimistic. Trump will want to do this and a deal with Canada before he loses the house in November.

Yes, It could work out "fairly" well for Canada IF he plays his cards right from here on



a bit of well deserved grovelling would help it along

Instead of talking to governors, Freeland will need to talk to the White House. A good deal can be had. We had to give up three per cent dairy for the TPP. We will need to make a concession for a good bilateral trade deal with the US.

Give up dairy tariffs and we could get a good deal.

Canada needs to carefully rethink its foreign relations.



Its running out of friends, fast.

Pressure on Canada to forge new trade deal within days after U.S. and Mexico reach two-way agreement

President Donald Trump suggested Canada has until Friday to negotiate its way into the accord before it's sent for review– or face stiff tariffs on auto exports



U.S. law requires 90 days of review by Congress before the administration can formally sign a trade accord, which makes Friday, the last day of August, the unofficial deadline.

I believe Justine and crew will deliberately not get a deal. Getting a deal is good for Canada, but bad for his reelection hopes. Naive people in this country actually think Justine is defending their interests against big bad Trump. Besides, changing the dairy supply management system will cost them votes in Quebec.
