Three Nations, One Vision: USMCA

The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) went into effect on July 1, 2020, replacing the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). USMCA facilitates over $1.88 trillion worth of trade per year or about $5.15 billion per day. That’s more than $88 billion traveling across our California land ports of entry. Free trade agreements have helped create a thriving economy in our CaliBaja region, with Mexico and Canada continuously ranking as top trade partners for San Diego and supporting over 17 million jobs across the United States.

USMCA included several updated and additional chapters from the original NAFTA. These were designed to create more balanced and reciprocal trade, support high-paying jobs, and continue advancing North America’s economic growth and global competitiveness.

As we navigate a dynamic trade landscape, join us on July 8th at 10 a.m. for a conversation with Consulate Generals representing the U.S., Mexico, and Canada in CaliBaja. We’ll touch on:

  • Success stories highlighting the importance of trade agreements and how regional businesses and supply chains have leveraged USMCA.
  • Efforts to maximize USMCA to boost economic development.
  • Next steps & a look ahead at the USMCA revision in 2026, and how the business community can support the negotiations.
