Abstract

The article discusses the challenges in Canada-Mexico trade despite existing trade agreements like CUSMA. Only 0.3% of B.C.-origin exports go to Mexico, with the value of exports decreasing. Factors contributing to low trade include proximity to the U.S., lack of B.C. production in key Mexican import sectors, and limited business relationships. Efforts to increase trade are underway, but barriers persist, impacting economic ties between the two countries. [Extracted from the article]
