Meanwhile, Canada and Mexico have become the United States’ top two export markets, accounting for a combined $625 billion in 2013, more than the next ten largest export markets combined. Prior to NAFTA, exports to Mexico roughly equaled those to the United Kingdom and about half of what was going to Japan.
与此同时，加拿大和墨西哥也成为美国最重要的两个出口市场，2013年总规模达到了6,250亿美元。在NAFTA签署之前，对墨西哥出口与对英国出口大致相当，只有对日本出口的一半左右。此外，这一贸易量的剧增也创造大量高薪岗位。
