Whether you’re a Democrat, Republican, or an independent, you should welcome President Trump’s announcement of the new United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA, on Monday.

A replacement for NAFTA, the USMCA will increase U.S. access to Canadian markets and ensure greater centering of the car industry in North America. That centering will damage China’s export of car parts into the U.S. market. The biggest reason to celebrate this deal is what it insures going forwards. By consolidating a free trade environment across the North America, the vast majority of Americans, Canadians, and Mexicans will find mutual benefit. And in that mutual benefit this free trade will lubricate closer diplomacy on other issues.
