Yes, as long as citizens of both countries are allowed to travel and work without question. If people are disallowed from freely travelling to and working in the other country then tariffs should be imposed on imported goods from the country that prevents unfettered travel and work. As long as the traveler has no criminal record and would be free to enter the other country as a tourist, they should be able to work there.

Trade regulation should probably be decreased, however this allows for massive exploitation so I can't fully endorse it. NAFTA should be a more beneficial policy, however issues with Mexico's enforcement and political structures are preventing the flow of income to Mexico from being effectively implemented in infrastructure and education for Mexican citizens which is maintaining a labour cost imbalance that encourages shipping more jobs to Mexico.

Yes, but all updated trade agreements should permit carbon taxes to be applied to imported goods and services.

NAFTA or any trade agreement needs to be reviewed every 2-5 years because situations change. The balance is never truly in place. Amandements need to be enacted to protect the people in all apprticipating countries.
@9GYSNHD6mos6MO
Yes, but renegotiate terms to strike a better balance accessing goods not available in the current domestic market while protecting domestic manufacturing.
