"It's a disaster," Trump told CBS's Scott Pelley in an interview airing Sunday on "60 Minutes." "We will either renegotiate it or we will break it because you know every agreement has an end. "Every agreement has to be fair. Every agreement has a defraud claim. We're being defrauded by all these countries," Trump continued. Pressed on whether he supports free trade, Trump responded, "We need fair trade, not free trade. We need fair trade it's got to be fair." Trump has blasted trade policies, accusing leaders of allowing China and Mexico to steal U.S. jobs and hurt American workers. The GOP front-runner also opposed granting President Obama fast-track trade powers. Poster Comment: People who support NAFTA are sell outs to America. They just want cheap goods at the expense of the American workers. Screw them. I hope Trump has all the people who voted for NAFTA put on trial for treason. Traitorous assholes.

To: Vicomte13, rlk (#31) But Reagan did usher in Reaganomics, with its bad assumptions. And his administration negotiated NAFTA.... While Reagan is known to have mentioned a potential agreement regarding free trade in North America, I find no evidence that his administration negotiated NAFTA. That occurred in the George H.W. Bush administration, and the implementing law was signed by Bill Clinton. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Free_Trade_Agreement Following diplomatic negotiations dating back to 1990 among the three nations, U.S. President George H. W. Bush, Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and Mexican President Carlos Salinas, each responsible for spearheading and promoting the agreement, ceremonially signed the agreement in their respective capitals on December 17, 1992. The signed agreement then needed to be ratified by each nation's legislative or parliamentary branch. The Canada–United States Free Trade Agreement had been very controversial and divisive in Canada, and the 1988 Canadian election was fought almost exclusively on that issue. In that election, more Canadians voted for anti-free trade parties (the Liberals and the New Democrats) but the split caused more seats in parliament to be won by the pro-free trade Progressive Conservatives (PCs). Mulroney and the PCs had a parliamentary majority and were easily able to pass the 1987 Canada-U.S. FTA and NAFTA bills. However, he was replaced as Conservative leader and prime minister by Kim Campbell. Campbell led the PC party into the 1993 election where they were decimated by the Liberal Party under Jean Chrétien, who had campaigned on a promise to renegotiate or abrogate NAFTA; however, Chrétien subsequently negotiated two supplemental agreements with the new U.S. president. In the US, Bush, who had worked to "fast track" the signing prior to the end of his term, ran out of time and had to pass the required ratification and signing of the implementation law to incoming president Bill Clinton. Prior to sending it to the United States Senate Clinton added two side agreements, The North American Agreement on Labor Cooperation (NAALC) and the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC), to protect workers and the environment, plus allay the concerns of many House members. It also required U.S. partners to adhere to environmental practices and regulations similar to its own. After much consideration and emotional discussion, the House of Representatives passed the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act on November 17, 1993, 234-200. The agreement's supporters included 132 Republicans and 102 Democrats. The bill passed the Senate on November 20, 1993, 61-38. Senate supporters were 34 Republicans and 27 Democrats. Clinton signed it into law on December 8, 1993; the agreement went into effect on January 1, 1994. Clinton, while signing the NAFTA bill, stated that "NAFTA means jobs. American jobs, and good-paying American jobs. If I didn't believe that, I wouldn't support this agreement." http://www.international.gc.ca/trade-agreements-accords-commerciaux/topics-domaines/disp-diff/trilateral_neg.aspx?lang=eng Legal Documents (all documents are in pdf) Copies of all legal documents posted in the document archive have been prepared in a language of operation of the Tribunal or Court in question.

These documents are the draft negotiating texts produced between 1991 and 1993 by the NAFTA investment negotiating group, made up of representatives from each NAFTA Party. With the exception of the initial draft text, dated December 1991 which contains initial proposals, these drafts represented the status of the investment negotiations at the conclusion of each of the negotiating group's meetings and, upon circulation to all three Parties, provided the starting point for discussion at the next meeting. These documents have been de-classified and are no longer confidential. The NAFTA Free Trade Commission announced the public release of these documents on July 16, 2004. Note: All negotiating draft texts were prepared in English only for trilateral approval by the Parties during the NAFTA negotiations. Given the need to maintain the integrity of the content of these historical documents, the Government of Canada has not modified or changed them in any way. As such they have not been translated from the original.
