The Globe and Mail reports in its Thursday edition that Prime Minister Mark Carney will sign a strategic partnership on trade and security with Mexico when he visits today, part of what officials are describing as a reset of their relationship as both countries prepare for a renegotiation of their trilateral trade deal with an increasingly protectionist United States. The Globe's Steven Chase writes that a sizable business delegation, including Bank of Nova Scotia chief executive officer Scott Thomson, CPKC CEO Keith Creel, TC Energy CEO François Poirier, Martinrea executive chairman Rob Wildeboer and Atco CEO Nancy Southern, will be joining Mr. Carney. Ottawa feels there is untapped potential to boost trade with Mexico. It currently ranks among the top five export markets for Canada. Mr. Carney and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum also plan to renew a dialogue on security and cabinet ministers from each country will discuss joint efforts to combat illicit trafficking of drugs and firearms as well as disrupting activities linked to transnational organized crime, including human trafficking. Both countries, despite a free-trade deal with Washington, have been hit with steep tariffs on steel, aluminum and autos.
