The Canadian dollar trades down 0.91% at 1.2575 per dollar.

The Mexican peso is down 0.85% at 19.4034 per dollar.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch's Carlos Capistran and Ethan Harris say the decision to withdraw from NAFTA wouldn't solve Trump's issues with the deal, which include the US trade deficit with other countries and the loss of manufacturing jobs.
