With Mexico, United States had already agreed on a provisional agreement. To include Canada, Trump had set a deadline up to this Friday. This will allow Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto to sign agreement. He leaves office at end of November. Trump has to wait 90 days with his signature under American law.
