[Canada Officially Proposes Renewal of USMCA Agreement] According to a report by Golden Finance on June 3, citing Canadian media on June 2, the Canadian government has proposed to the United States and Mexico to renew the "United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement" (USMCA). Reports indicate that Dominic LeBlanc, the Canadian minister responsible for Canada-U.S. trade, suggested in a letter to U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Mexican Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard that the free trade agreement be renewed for 16 years to avoid triggering the statutory annual review process. In the letter, LeBlanc stated: "One or both parties to the agreement may wish to propose improvements in certain areas to enhance North America's competitiveness. Canada looks forward to maintaining ongoing engagement with the U.S. and Mexico." He also noted: "It is crucial to conduct parallel discussions with the U.S. to address industry tariff issues."
