BELLINGHAM, Wash. – President Trump’s campaign promise to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement has border communities in the US and Canada nervous.

A Western Washington University Border Policy Research report found that Canada accounts for 31% of Washington’s imports.

Business in Vancouver reports bilateral trade between Washington and Canada was worth nearly $20 billion in 2016.

NAFTA re-negotiations are scheduled to begin later this month.

But a Port of Bellingham representative says, regardless of what’s going on in the White House, trade between our state and BC will continue.
