A revised trilateral agreement was reached last September which will govern more than $1.3 trillion worth of trade between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. If approved, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) would replace the North American Free Trade Agreement or NAFTA. While the two documents are largely similar, USMCA updates various chapters in NAFTA and includes additional chapters which were included in the Trans-Pacific Partnership or TPP.
The Chamber has partnered with various organizations to hold a series of informational forums to build support for the trade agreement. We are proud to partner with Consejo Coordinador Empresarial Tijuana and thank them for co-hosting our upcoming forum which will take place Friday January 29 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at Club de Empresarios in Tijuana. Attendees will be welcomed by Kurt Honold, President of CCE and member of the Chamber’s International Business Affairs Committee.
This forum will provide an overview of the revised agreement, next steps in the ratification process and insight from private and public sector stakeholders as to the possible impacts on our binational region.
