A free trade agreement is a deal between countries to remove trade barriers, making it easier and cheaper to buy and sell goods across borders.
For example, under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), a Canadian auto parts manufacturer can export its products to U.S. assemblers tariff-free as long as the parts meet the agreement's rules of origin, significantly reducing the cost of cross-border trade.
