It will be a lot more than just that for Canadians.

Canadian politicians have allowed their economy/industrial base to be hollowed out (by China) to a greater degree than even the USA. Now they will have to start making things in Canada again, rather than just repackaging Chinese parts.

Specific mechanisms in the agreement will systematically ratchet up the North American content requirement, as capacity comes on line.

The bottom line is that Canada and Mexico will share in receiving the huge supply chain that will be stampeding out of China, as the substantial tariffs start hitting China in earnest, January 1st, 2019.

Also Canadian consumers will get significant price breaks for dairy products and on-line shopping.

Milk is expensive up north. There’s a reason why a LOT of canucks cross the border just for milk. It’s ALWAYS a 3 excuse thing: gas, milk and eggs. All dairy products. Even Trump is helping canadians..

How does that work for dairy, if it is limited to 3.5% of its market?
