Canada and Mexico tell United States they want the North American free trade agreement renewed

Canada and Mexico on Tuesday called for a 16-year renewal of the North American free trade agreement with the United States, in hopes of binding the three countries to a pact that President Donald Trump has openly questioned. In a letter Monday, Ottawa's minister in charge of Canada-US trade Dominic LeBlanc said, "Canada recommends the renewal of the agreement for another 16 years."
