Crappy NAFTA 2.0 got signed, but it ain't over

Traitor Trump recently signed the US Mexico Canada Agreement (USMCA), frequently referred to as NAFTA 2.0. It still has to be approved, next year, by both houses of Congress. There is opposition from both the left and the right, and it will be interesting to follow. For now, useful analysis:

- This is an overview, with a lot of links:

The new NAFTA might hit some feel-good political notes. But, as always, the real-life impact of its protections for labor, the environment, and human rights comes down to the political will to wield the law to support those communities—a political will that is rooted in the rights that free-trade deals inevitably leave out: the people’s power to defy a rigged system. - The Nation

IATP has done a thorough analysis of what the new agreement means for farming and food. The upshot: While minor improvements have been made, major new detrimental provisions have also been added, and none of the structural issues that farmers in all three countries have been calling for have been adequately addressed. - IATP
