It's a big day for trade, big day for our country.
A lot of people thought we'd never get here.
They used to call it NAFTA.
We're going to call it the United States Mexico Trade
Agreement.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
It is our wish, Mr President that now Canada
will also be able to be incorporated in all this.
Canada will start negotiations shortly.
I'll be calling the prime minister very soon.
And we'll start negotiation.
And if they'd like to negotiate fairly, we'll do that.
You know, they have tariffs of almost 300%
on some of our dairy products.
So we can't have that.
We're not going to stand for that.
I think with Canada, frankly, the easiest thing we can do
is to tariff their cars coming in.
It's a tremendous amount of money.
And it's a very simple negotiation.
It could end in one day.
And we'd take in a lot of money the following day.
But I think we'll give them a chance to probably have
a separate deal.
We can have a separate deal.
Then we can put it into this deal.
I like to call this deal the United States Mexico Trade
Agreement.
I think it's an elegant name.
I think NAFTA has a lot of bad connotations
for the United States because it was a rip off.
There was a deal that was a horrible deal for our country.
Mexico's promised to immediately start purchasing as much farm
product as they can.
They're going to work on that very hard.
And as you know, we're working unrelated to this.
We're working very much with other countries.
China is one.
They want to talk, which is not a right time
to talk right now, to be honest with China.
It's been-- it's too one sided for too many years
for too many decades.
And so it's not the right time to talk.
But eventually, I'm sure, that we'll
be able to work out a deal with China.
In the meantime, we're doing very well with China.
