One Way or Another: The Future of USMCA
Hosted by the United States Council for International Business
As the U.S., Mexico, and Canada respond to evolving industrial policies and the competitive pressures posed by non-market economy practices, maintaining a strong and seamless North American market is essential to preserving regional efficiencies, strengthening supply chains, and enhancing competitiveness.
This panel will examine issues including rules of origin, Section 232 measures, enforcement mechanisms, and bilateral trade irritants, while considering new areas for regional collaboration such as critical minerals, AI regulatory coherence, and coordinated approaches to subsidies and industrial overcapacity.
