Article Title: Trump Clinches Re-branded NAFTA as Canada Joins Pact With Mexico
Summary: U.S. President Donald Trump is set to sign a successor to the North American Free Trade Agreement that will make modest revisions to a deal. U.S and Canadian negotiators worked hard to secure an agreement just before the deadline, allowing leaders from those nations and Mexico to sign the accord by late November. The NAFTA will now be superseded by the USMCA, covering a region that trades more than 1 trillion annually.
Significance: This deal will cause a turbulence in the relationship between the U.S. and Canada; and because of the support from Mexico Trump doesn’t care for Canada’s opinion. NAFTA was created to eliminate tariff barriers to agricultural, manufacturing, and services; to remove investment restrictions; and to protect intellectual property rights.
Question: What will happen to the relation between Canada and the U.S. for the future?
