The new trade deal between the U.S., Canada and Mexico will allow the countries to compete as a region against the European Union and China, President Donald Trump said.
Trump struck a collaborative tone during a meeting with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday, as the U.S. president hailed a deal with two countries whose trade practices he’s regularly criticized in the past. The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA, is great for farmers, manufacturers and workers, he said.
