The man U.S. president-elect Donald Trump has tapped to reshape the country's trade policy will soon send a letter to Canadian and Mexican officials urging them to reopen NAFTA talks, according to a report. "NAFTA is logically the first thing for us to deal with," Ross said. Ross said U.S. trading partners who play by the rules should have nothing to fear from a Trump administration, as on the whole, the U.S. is in favour of more global trade — not less. "I am not anti-trade, I am pro trade," Ross said. "But I'm pro sensible trade — not trade that is to the disadvantage of the American worker and to the American manufacturing community."
