WASHINGTON — Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME) and manufacturing executives from across Canada are joining their counterparts from the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) in the United States and the Confederation of Industrial Chambers of Mexico (CONCAMIN) at the North American Manufacturing Conference in Washington this week to send a clear, united message: North America’s highly integrated manufacturing supply chains depend on preserving CUSMA (USMCA) and the free flow of trade across borders. Leaders from all three countries are urging governments to maintain and strengthen the trilateral agreement that has been the foundation of North America’s industrial competitiveness. The conference program includes executive roundtables and participation from senior trade officials including Canada’s Chief Trade Negotiator to the US, the Deputy US Trade Representative, and the Undersecretary of Foreign Trade at the Mexican Ministry of Economy.
