    Canada was Mexico’s fifth largest trade partner and Mexico was Canada’s third largest as of the end of last year.

    Wow, so Canada needs mexico more than Mexico needs Canada. That’s counter intuitive

      That doesn’t make any sense. Trade doesn’t have to be perfectly equal. You want good agreements and free trade without bloated orange meat bags hijacking and stopping trade.

      As long as these agreements don’t include the US, that’s a good step in the right direction.

      Mexico is right next to Central America and South America, that’s a crazy amount of neighbors, but Canada only has one close neighbor. It isn’t need as much as geography.
