USMCA - USA - Canada Trade Deal

Canada, U.S. have reached a NAFTA deal - now called the USMCA
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/naf...rump-1.4844623

However, during this past summer, Trump announced that Canada would be subject to (Section 232 - National Security) tariffs on steel and aluminum. Canada quickly punched back with equal $16.6 billion-dollar counter tariffs on a plethora of U.S. products, including: bourbon, beer kegs, (10%) on Inflatable boats, Sailboats (with or without auxiliary motor), Motorboats, and other vessels for pleasure or sport. Apparently, these issues remain unresolved.

Re: USMCA - USA - Canada Trade Deal

Wow looks like Trump is making Canada’s economy strong as well as in the US. Maybe he should send MCGA hats north.
