Donald Trump and the leaders of Canada and Mexico signed a revised North American trade pact.

The US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) is meant to replace the 24-year-old North American Free Trade Agreement (Nafta), which Trump has viewed as a “disaster”.

Trump appeared with Trudeau and outgoing Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto at the G20 summit in Buenos Aires for the formal signing ceremony.

The new agreement requires that 40% of cars eventually be made in countries that pay autoworkers at least $16 an hour – that is, the US and Canada and not Mexico – to qualify for duty-free treatment under the trade pact.

It also requires Mexico to pursue reforms of labor law to encourage independent unions.

Each country’s legislature must also approve the agreement.
