The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is a free trade agreement binding all three of those countries. It is the successor to the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). As of July 1, 2020 the USMCA is in effect in all three member nations, Canada, the US, and Mexico.
The new USMCA agreement is the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. It is a free trade agreement between those three countries. It updates, modifies, and alters the rules that were in place under the old North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). There are new provisions affecting intellectual property and digital trade, as well as myriad new regulations affecting everything from wage protections to agricultural subsidies.
The USMCA trade deal refers to the United-States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. It is a free trade agreement between the US, Canada, and Mexico. Continuing in the same vein as the old North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the USMCA is intended to simplify and liberalize trade between the three North American nations.
The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) updated and changed many of the rules and regulations contained in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The United States focused particularly on protecting its own auto industry by demanding the inclusion wage and environmental requirements. Other changes included those made to agricultural rules, as well as the inclusion of new regulations regarding intellectual and digital property.
