Over the years, the collaboration and economic exchange between Canada, the United States and Mexico has had a transformative effect on the three countries, so this event is a step in the search for agreements to consolidate this great region of the world. Governor Pavlovich Arellano indicated her participation in the Second Summit of Governors and Premiers of North America 2018.
Within the second day of activities of the summit where governors and premiers of the CONAGO, the National Association of Governors (NGA, for its acronym in English) and the Council of the Federation (COF), Governor Pavlovich explained the importance of maintaining the coordinated work between these countries for the benefit of the development of the three nations.
In her capacity as President of the International Affairs Commission of CONAGO, Governor Pavlovich participated in the round table "The role of the North American region in a globalized economy: Trade, agriculture, energy and innovation", where she highlighted that Cooperation among the three countries has improved the quality of life for millions of North American citizens.
"There is an estimate, among many others, that maintains that trilateral trade has generated employment for 15 million people in our countries directly," she said.
The close trilateral collaboration on the issue of agriculture, has made them the most economically productive areas, however, there are still challenges that have to be overcome, she said.
"The agriculture of the three countries is better thanks to the integration and here we have a challenge: to take agriculture in North America to a point of convergence with ecological sustainability and high efficiency," she said.
In terms of energy, North America faces one of the most serious challenges for humanity, he said, by combating climate change and the compatibility of productive activities with the environment, in addition to increasing the use of renewable and non-polluting energies.
"Our work as governors is the understanding that our economies and communities do not grow from rhetoric, but grow from the actions taken jointly by governments, societies and their productive actors," she said.
Events like this are a great step to reach agreements that pay for the consolidation of this region of the world, in order to break down barriers that only undermine the confidence of the three nations, she added.
Doug Ducey, Governor of Arizona and host of the event, said that for Arizona it is very important to coordinate with Mexico and Canada, due to trade, being the first and third country, respectively, with greater collaboration in that regard for their entity.
"My hope is that we use this summit to strengthen our relationships and serve those we serve, whether in the efforts in the workforce, development, trade, transportation and more," he said.
Megarregión Sonora-Arizona example to follow
The collaboration, trust and teamwork that Sonora and Arizona have made through the Megarregión is a clear example of what can be done when there is a will, said Governor Pavlovich before governors and premiers of the CONAGO, GNA And COF.
The Tourism Insurance Corridor of Puerto Peñasco and Arizona, is an example of the work of the Arizona-Sonora Commission paying off, he said, adding that the great similarities with Arizona has facilitated the agreement to work hand in hand and talk about issues of education, economy, development and not only security as before when border states were involved.
"We have worked together, we have reduced the time of our imports to the United States, thanks to the work we have done together, they have provided training to police and we have had student exchanges," he said.
Other areas that have been strengthened through the Megarregión, he said, is the export industry, which has improved the competitiveness of the manufacturing sector without leaving other markets unprotected.
For his part Doug Ducey stressed that the collaboration with Sonora has strengthened the economic development of Arizona, and since the beginning of the administration of Governor Pavlovich have begun to do things that had not been done before as the creation of the plant Lucid Motors in Casa Grande, Arizona, which was installed in this place because of the supply that Sonora generates.
