Media Release: Green Party of Canada condemns Liberal government decision to sign onto the TPP

The country ran up a $157 million deficit in December, bringing the full-year 2017 trade deficit to $10.88 billion, the National Statistics Institute said Friday.

Officials trying to hammer out differences over how to update the North American Free Trade have made some progress and hope politicians decide the process should continue, Steve Verheul, Canada's chief negotiator, told Reuters on Saturday.

- US officials on Thursday probed Canadian proposals for unblocking talks on NAFTA but there were few signs of progress, raising questions about whether any real movement is happening at the latest round of negotiations on the treaty.

The Trump administration, which blames Nafta for killing off United States manufacturing jobs, wants the requirement for the value content, or net cost, of autos sourced from the three Nafta countries boosted to 85 per cent from 62.5 per cent for tariff-free trade.

Canada suggests North American content would be higher if the value of software and other high-tech equipment made on the continent were taken into account.

"Within the structure proposed by the Canadians, there appears to be the beginnings of a solution to this problem", Mr Marchionne said on an earnings conference call. "In addition, everyone in this country deserves an opportunity to weigh in after we have been informed about the contents of the agreement", concluded Ms. May.

At the time, cops said it looked like she had committed suicide (above, her home in Corning, New York). So this is just the first step in the process. "No one can plead guilty to a felony in a local court".

"I think we have demonstrated we have engaged on most of the big issues", Verheul said in the report. He said the talks must be collaborative.

Ms Thomas, noting that United States domestic sales were expected to decline after a seven-year run that set records, added, "We're kind of bracing for a downturn and we don't need to have any additional burdens further harming the industry".

"NAFTA has helped Iowa and our farmers make a lot of progress in markets in the past couple of decades", said Ed Wiederstein, former president of the Iowa Farm Bureau, Audubon-area farmer and member of AFF.

"I think it went reasonably well".

But the source, who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation, said much would depend on Lighthizer's reaction on Monday.

"The science in specialised steel is as space ages as it is in app writing for vehicle operation".
