This relationship facilitates our mutual competitive advantage, domestic job security, and resilience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We urge both governments to seek constructive solutions that strengthen, not weaken, this essential economic partnership. As the voice of the bilateral business community, the Canadian American Business Council underlines that the power of our two countries relies on free trade.
