a deal is where concessions are made on 2 or more sides to create a greater good.
If it is all good for the USA but the shits on Canada and than why would these countries do business in the US if they take a shit kicking? The reality is tariffs work both ways. The USA RELIES on smooth trade with Canada and Mexico. These countries represent a massive amount of goods in the USA. Regarding all goods in the USA, 1.5 goods in 5 in the USA are related to Mexican and Canadian trade.

Well NAFTA is not of benefit to America and definitely not of benefit to Mexico. Mexico still poor and the peso's value has been on the floor regardless of NAFTA. The treaty has to be renegotiated for the benefit of both countries, Mexicans on one hand have not been able to rip any benefits, there is a lack of infrastructure and corruption has created a sense of stagnation for the mexicans, so there are not able to compete, the US on the other hand is importing more than they are exporting to Mexico, so there is a trade deficit.I hope congress reevaluates this issue

Hey, i got a question and I'd really appreciate an answer since I need it for school. Since I'm not a native speaker, I struggle understanding the meaning of what she said at 2:19. Does it mean products from Mexiko to the US are 5% cheaper? Or the tariff is 5% of the amount it is now? I do get the words (i think) but not the meaning... As i said, I'd really appreciate an answer and I hope i havent done too many mistakes :D have a nice day :)

oh seriously! TELL Nieto to stick it in his ear!

This POTUS is going to be a disappointment.
I just hope that he doesn't cause to much damage to foreign relations before we can get him out.
People don't trade just for dollars and cursors, it's also for mutual benefit.
If mutual benefit ends then you have to go elsewhere
