AMLO agrees with Trudeau to address complaints from Canadian companies in Mexico

President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said this Wednesday that it agreed with the prime minister of Canada, Justin Trudeaureceive Canadian companies that are dissatisfied with their government’s policies.

“I made a commitment with Prime Minister Trudeau to receive companies that may have pending issues, some disagreement with the attitude of our government, we are always open to dialogue,” López Obrador said at the start of a bilateral meeting between the two countries in the presidential palace in Mexico City.

The president did not mention which companies it is.

López Obrador also said that he discussed with Trudeau the issue of Canadian companies that are operating in the electricity sector.

“We are also looking to resolve problems, differences that logically arise when it comes to these economic relations,” he said.

For his part, Trudeau said that in recent years there has been “a real deepening” of the “economic, business and work” connections and ties between the two countries.

“We will continue to talk about how we can further increase our economic alliances, our people-to-people ties and most of all the prosperity that we both bring to the trilateral relationship in North America,” he said.

Trudeau is on an official visit to Mexico as part of the North American Leaders Summit which was held on Tuesday in Mexico City with the presence of the US president Joe Biden.

At the summit, the three countries avoided touching on the disputes they maintain within the framework of the trade agreement T-MEC. In particular, Canada and the United States have denounced the energy policy of the López Obrador government, which seeks to give the State a more prominent role to the detriment of private initiative.
