Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Canada and Mexico Strengthen Partnership Amid U.S. Trade Pressure
Caption: Canada and Mexico Strengthen Partnership Amid U.S. Trade Pressure. Canada and Mexico are pledging deeper cooperation on trade and security as both nations face mounting economic pressure from Washington. At a meeting in Mexico City, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum emphasized unity with Carney declaring that both countries "compliment the United States" and are stronger together. The talks come as President Trump continues to impose steep tariffs — including 50% on Canadian steel, 25% on Mexican pharmaceuticals, and a so-called "fentanyl tariff" aimed at Mexico. Officials say the renewed partnership is designed to ensure neither country is isolated as the U.S. reviews the North American free trade agreement in 2026. Observers note the two leaders are carefully balancing cooperation with each other while maintaining dialogue with Washington. Trade between Canada and Mexico was valued at over $40 billion last year, and both sides say today's agreement will expand that partnership for decades to come.
