mexico has a lot to lose from the u.s. leaving agreement. represent 30% of mexico's gdp. u.s. investment represents 40% of mexico's fdi. jobs, industrial production, services, tourism, and many other activities in the region have a lot to lose if we temper with nafta. the vast majority of businesses realize how important it is for them and have made specific proposals from where to modernize and improve nafta. for many in the u.s., lowest possible denomination or expectation of nafta's renegotiation is whatever a result it will do no harm. if the u.s. decides to walk out of the nafta, which we hope it will not happen, it will certainly affect regional value chains, production, trade, investment, jobs, and economic growth. however, the agreement will still remain in place for trade between canada and mexico. if the result of this negotiation shows we can overcome this very delegate situation, the three countries will still have to develop a regional strategy to safeguard nafta and north american integration. -- and, former u.s. general david for trieste issued a report that mak

the pacific alliance is this initiative in mexico after nafta. for mexico toing bear in mind. if we are able to get some , i think wem canada will be able to speed up the process. and in the areas where we may have a different point of view. information that the u.s. will enable the tax for the different chapters. i do not know if this is the official position or if it is confirmed. tomorrow we will have a better wouldf nafta negotiation take place or not. , it wille is an option be for the u.s. mexico has worked over the years. it depends on the outcome. about said agreements and labor and environment isvisions, i would say -- if mexico can put into the agreement both the --even if we were able to deliver generally, we have no guarantee the current administration and mexico are the u.s. will consider -- or the u.s. will consider the agreement reached. korea and panama columbia, there was renegotiation when the agreement was reached. in mexico we will have elections . left party has challenged the benefits of nafta. we'll have a new administration in a year plus. concessions,

they were moving production to mexico. they have now moved all the production to mexico. and where they were paying $1.10 an hour, down in victoria, mexico. like i said, we were the second-largest manufacturer, the second largest employer in the county, and all those jobs moved to mexico, and they did it for one reason. that was because of wages. have a nice day. thank you. host: have you heard that story many times about the impact of nafta? yes.: sure, he raises a couple good points. one is the politics of this. he said he was not a big fan of donald trump, but has issues with nafta. it is interesting to remember -- you mentioned sherrod brown, the democratic senator. he has for years been a big critic of free trade. he wrote a book about it. democrats have often been on the side of the people who are very anti-trade. republicans often have been on the side of free trade. that donaldsting trump has tapped into this unease with trade and made it a republican issue. it is important when you go to congress to ratify a nafta agreement, because you might from the democrats.

the canadians want to protect there.ustry in mexico, there's a lot of concern in mexico that if talks break down, that they might have problems getting some of the they need. they've been reaching out to other countries in south plan b if talks do break down and need to find other sources of import. heard the trade representative there say that strong, laborr provisions put into any sort of deal. what are they talking about there? >> initially, the labor provisions put in as a side agreement. the agreement is to increase labor standards in mexico. -- criticism of nafta that is that it has been a race to the bottom, that manufactures have been setting up where labor is cheaper and standards are lower. the idea is to increase labor standards in mexico, so that some of the production might move back to the united states and canada. host: sherrod brown writes today, this time nafta talks must include workers. he writes, "american jobs should not be up for negotiation. should not move forward until mexico agrees to enforce strict protections by setting high we can create the best possible

the corn in mexico. during a serious problem of competition. mexico is standing solids. and we are receiving a very important volume of grains. >> i wanted to add something you mentioned about chapter 19 resolution. with any trade agreement it is almost mandatory that there be a mechanism in place to deal with disputes when they arise. having a trade agreement that doesn't have some type of format for how you resolve this is creating a trade agreement that doesn't have any portion of it but from our perspective and the canadian government's perspective this resolution is critical as the agreement goes forward. >> penny star with breitbart news. on one of your lists, you talk about improved flow of goods at border crossings. can you address how that fits in with border security and your concerns about that? >> from a canadian perspective i live close to the us border. one of the issues we find is hold ups at the border with perishable products, delay of several hours and go from having a very valuable cargo to one that is worth nothing. finding ways to get a preapproved c

with mexico and canada we have $4.2 billion and mexico has a slight surplus. canada is the top export market for 29 u.s. states. as farm leaders we have outlined common ground for a path forward. there are five areas that we agreed on. one is the focus on increased and improved regulatory alignment. the secondary is improving the flow of goods at border crossing. the third is further alignment of sanitary measures and that's a fancy term that' human, animal and plant issues. the elimination of nonscience-based areas to trade is another area we need to concentrate on and then adapting the agreement to technology advances that have been made since 1994. 1994, the internet, digital economies those types of things weren't even thought ofment in closing, i would like to heck what was said this morning. we are neighbors, partners and friends. we have a relationship based on trust and understanding. agriculture has been a success and remember, do no harm. thank you. ill: and finally the president nal.co nacio >> [speaking in spanish] president of the press and member

mexico will pay for the wall. and mexico is going to pay for the wall. and they understand that. mexico is going to pay for the wall. believe me. 100%. but in a leaked transcript as you remember of one of the president's first phone conversations, one of the first phone conversations with the mexican president, the president agreed not to say mexico would pay for the wall. he said this, this was in the transcript that was leaked, his conversation with the mexican president. you cannot say any more that the united states is going to pay for the wall. i am just going to say that we are working it out. believe it or not, this is the least important thing we are talking about, but politically this might be the most important thing that we're talking about. so what do you think, congressman, are the trump voters in your state, arizona, upset the president seems to be at least in a private conversation with the mexican president backing out of that campaign promise? >> no, not really. the president is playing his base for fools, not just on the border wall but on so many other issues,

and mexico has winners and losers. with those cornyn and bean growers in mexico and rice of that serious problem of competitive and the. and racine - - we are seeing the volume spandex the to mention in chapter 19 hits is mandatory to have a mechanism in place that doesn't have some type of format to have that trade agreement and from our perspective with that dispute resolution is critical going forward. >> so to talk about that improve flow of goods, is that with border security and your concerns about that ?. >> i can get that from a canadian perspective so what we find is a holdup which is a delay of several hours to get that preapproved clearance with electronic filing using all of those new technologies available and everybody is preapproved recognizing the world we are living in you have to have security clearance and we saw everybody going through the line and they go through a lot faster so that is a similar type of approach that we're now doing a border entry for people. >> so we will leave that up to the exp

>> the pain one to me is the contradiction of trump's public decision on mexico and making mexico pay for the wall and what he says to the president of mexico that there's no way for him to do that and trying to enlist the mexican president to stop saying mexico won't pay because it's a big political problem. there are broader things with the calls. these are really acrimonious conversations that affect the lives of thousands, if not millions of immigrants around the world. there's no discussion of their plight or discussion of their plight or on u.s. relations with the countries. the conversations are all about trump and how the issues reflect on him. >> again, hammer home the point, if you cover the trump campaign or watch it -- >> turn on the television. >> you watched a rally, he is going to say we're going to build a wall and mexico is going to pay for the wall. in the conversations that took place a week after the inauguration, he is essentially acknowledging, yeah, we know you are not going pay for it, but don't say it out loud. that puts me in an awkward position. what was the

every trump voter was told that the most important thing with mexico was mexico paying for the wall. complete lie. the mexican president says, my position has been and will continue to be very firm, saying that mexico cannot pay for that wall, to which donald trump immediately says, but you cannot say that to the press. the press is going to go with that, and i cannot live with that. donald trump thinks it's perfectly reasonable for the mexican president to tell him he's not going to pay for the wall. donald trump knows mexico won't pay for the wall. he just doesn't want the president of mexico to tell trump voters that he's not going to pay for the wall. president trump then spends considerable time demonstrating how little he understands about the american government. he tries to threaten the president of mexico with taxes. trump said, i am very happy to not have any more meetings and just put a border tax on. the president of mexico is no doubt sitting there thinking what we all know, which is that congress is never going to pass that. so donald trump says, i have been given as pr

from up here, it's striking to see how close mexico is to the us. bravo by the mexicans, and rio grande by the americans, is the flowing border dividing and uniting both countries for hundreds of kilometres. in most of texas is the place where the next phase of the wall will be built. for many, that's a threat to their properties and to the landscape itself. building the wall will be difficult, and money may not be the biggest hurdle. getting the land is a major issue, because over 90% of the border in texas is privately owned. under the bush administration, many landowners receive letters saying they would have to sell their land to the goverment. noel first received a letter in 2008. for nine years, nothing happened, but he recently got another one. he is realistic about the situation. why do you think there is no point in fighting the goverment on this? 0n fighting the sale? yeah. because homeland security has all the... ..power in the world right now. they can do and not do whatever they want. the land has been in his wife's family for more than
