The US-Mexico-Canada Agreement entered into force six years ago and is the outline for almost $2 trillion in annual trade among the three countries. A countdown to the expiry of the agreement is set to begin as officials launch a review of the trade deal that President Donald Trump signed during his first term. July 1 could be the beginning of the end for a trade pact President Trump has long criticized — or the start of a path to its renewal.

The North American trade pact that President Donald Trump negotiated and boasted about in his first term comes up for renewal Wednesday, a process that is likely to last months, maybe longer.
