OTTAWA, EDMONTON, CALGARY — It would be a blunder for
the next White House to reopen the North American free-trade agreement,
Prime Minister Stephen Harper warned yesterday in a blunt response to
U.S. presidential hopefuls' vows to rewrite or scrap the deal.
Mr. Stelmach characterized the attack on NAFTA as Mr. Obama and Ms. Clinton "fighting for support" among Democrats.
He said Canada and the United States should instead work together to address the economic threat from abroad.
"But quite frankly, both for Canada and the United States, the
biggest competition comes from Asia, and I would sooner work together,"
he said.
