NAFTA at Political Glossary

What is it? the North American Free Trade Agreement, a multilateral trade treaty signed by The US, Canada and Mexico in 1994. This was the first time in history that a free trade agreement was signed between a first world country (United States) and a third world country (Mexico). The relationship resembled that between an industrial state and a colony. Chile has since joined NAFTA.
