Canada and Mexico to sign strategic partnership agreement, and it’s generating some interesting reactions. Honestly, it’s not every day that you see such a straightforward, seemingly normal international relationship capture so much attention. The fact that this is happening feels, well, a bit exceptional given the current global climate. It’s great to see Canada moving forward.
This potential agreement, and the fact that Canada and Mexico have much in common, feels like a positive step. As the saying goes, “Canadá y México se parecen un buen. ¡Qué chido sería que nos acercáramos más, güey!” The prospect of closer ties is definitely welcome.
The agreement is set to cover some important areas, including infrastructure, trade, health, agriculture, emergency preparedness, and security, according to senior government officials. This broad scope suggests a commitment to a deeper, more comprehensive partnership.
Carney’s visit to Mexico City comes at a critical time. With the ongoing trade tensions with the United States, it makes sense that Canada is seeking to diversify its trade partnerships. Both countries are also preparing for the renegotiation of the continental trade deal, which makes this timing even more significant. This is the perfect time to create a new relationship.
More trade between Canada and Mexico is great news, particularly because it potentially impacts the US’s trade dominance. It’s exciting. The world should assist the US in becoming the isolated country it apparently wants to be. Let’s hope Canada finally gets it and hedges its business dealings with the US. This could be the start of something big.
The fact that such a large percentage of Canadian exports head to the US is concerning. This partnership provides an opportunity to change that. TEQUILA! And perhaps more importantly, let’s hope this partnership starts to change the imbalance in trade we currently see.
The name “CanMex” is perfect for this partnership. There’s a great opportunity here. Also, maybe this is Trump’s worst nightmare. Cutting out the middleman is a good idea. And, hey, maybe we’ll finally get access to the good tequila in Canada!
Speaking of lightheartedness, it’s worth noting that one participant described Mexico as “poker in the back” compared to Canada’s “liquor in the front”. Hopefully, this partnership means more jobs in both countries.
While the partnership is welcome, some comments raise a valid point: governments can sign agreements, but ultimately, it’s companies that build factories and move goods. There’s a question of whether Canadian companies are truly ready to compete in the Mexican market. It seems to me that this is a chance for some massive growth.
One concern is about potential setbacks. History, and past experiences, suggests there could be potential betrayals. It’s important to remember that there are real-world risks, and we should watch how this unfolds.
It is important to acknowledge that Canada’s GDP shrunk in the second quarter of 2025, while Mexico’s GDP is moving +/- 0 per cent. Total trade with Mexico last year was $56 billion. This must be seen within the context that our total trade with the US is almost $1 trillion.
There’s a good point that some time would ideally be spent in DC trying to hammer out solutions. At this time it looks more like the Americans are the problem. It is important to remember that most of our trade is under CUSMA and are already exempt.
Let’s hope this deal does provide solutions to some of the unemployment issues. It’s a good thing when they get to fly everywhere to sign things in person. But if this partnership is to be a success, we have to watch out for the US reaction.
It’s essential to look at the larger picture. Canada’s exports to the US are decreasing. The value of our exports has stayed the same during this period, which is great news so far. This strategic partnership could play a significant role in that.
As the agreement moves forward, both countries need to remember that we both have to come to the table. It’s also worth considering how this partnership could challenge the US influence in the continent. This partnership could be a significant step forward. Let’s see where it goes.
