Event Synopsis:
On August 16, 2017, representatives from the U.S., Canada and Mexico began the renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Among the issues that the Trump Administration aims to renegotiate include reduced U.S. trade deficit, balanced trade with Canada through greater access for U.S. dairy products, tougher rules of origin, improved use of U.S.-manufactured contents for autos, elimination of dispute settlement mechanism in trade remedies cases, and a 5-year sunset clause.
Although it is uncertain when the NAFTA talks will be completed and implemented, both U.S. and Canadian companies doing cross-border trade must stay apace of the significant developments regarding the renegotiations. It is critical that they understand the impact of the potential changes brought by NAFTA renegotiation to their business operations.
In this LIVE Webcast, a panel of key thought leaders and trade professionals will provide an in-depth discussion of the NAFTA renegotiation and its impact to the U.S.-Canada trade and investment environment. Speakers will provide practical advice on how to cope up with the possible results of the renegotiation.
