Re: Brian Peck
Brian Peck was quoted in a Q&A about the North American Free Trade Agreement and the economic costs for the United States if it withdraws from the agreement. The two industries facing the greatest impact would be agriculture and automobile manufacturing, according to Peck. He believes that even if a new deal is reached by the United States, Canada and Mexico, it is ultimately up to Congress to accept the new terms.
