The leader of Canada’s most populous province says all of the country’s provincial and territorial premiers want Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's federal government to negotiate a bilateral trade deal with the United States that excludes Mexico.
If only this guy knew what was involved in certifying stuff under the current USMCA agreement. It is not nearly as simple as slapping a ‘Made in Mexico’ label on it. There are a strict set of rules that involve classifying every item in a BOM and having values of them with rules about what goods can shift and what the values thresholds are for each component. It’s part of what I do every day for work. Too much non-US, CA, or MX content that doesn’t tariff shift and you can’t get duty free entry.
