OTTAWA, September 18 (Xinhua) — Canada plans to begin formal consultations on the North American Free Trade Agreement (CUSMA) between Canada, the United States, and Mexico within the next week, CBS News reported on Wednesday.
The government will soon issue a formal notice requesting public comment and feedback on CUSMA, the office of Dominic LeBlanc, the minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, said in a statement.
Canada will engage with its industry leaders, provinces and territories, and Indigenous partners to prepare for a review of the agreement, the statement added.
Mexico's Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard released a video on Wednesday announcing that the country is also launching a public consultation process.
On Tuesday, the United States announced the formal launch of consultations to assess the agreement's progress over the past five years. This move will kick off a months-long process, signaling that formal negotiations to revise CUSMA could begin in early 2026, the statement said.
CUSMA, which came into force on July 1, 2020, provides for a “joint review” to be conducted in six years. –0–
