The North American Free Trade Agreement between the United States, Canada, and Mexico removed all trade barriers on items and services being imported and exported between the three countries. This agreement promised to stimulate economies and bring up living standards for all countries involved. This site investigates how successful the North American Trade Agreement was at meeting these promises, and what improvements could be made for it to be more successful at helping one of Mexico's poorest populations: coffee farmers.
