new leadership mean that the terms of the deal agreed by mexico will unravel? i don't think so. think one of reasons behind the agreement was that the current mexican new deal so the american one to set a new deal so actually the new administration is backing the trade deal. there‘s no reason to believe they could unravel. 0n the contrary, i think they will support it. and continue trading. so let's talk about canada. canada is the party not coming on board at the moment, trying to negotiate with president trump. many argue that he won‘t get his own way with canada. we have mentioned block and cars, what other issues?” with canada. we have mentioned block and cars, what other issues? i think canada wants to support farmers. they have been doing it for a long time. that is what keeping the negotiations from coming to a conclusion. but i think eventually they welcome to terms. maybe canada was often there position and they we re was often there position and they were rich and agreement. this is not happening in a vacuum, we have to eats left right and centre, trade deals left right and centre mike we have tweets, what should we be reading into this?
