Article 32.10 of CUSMA refers to non-market country free trade agreements with which no party has signed a free trade agreement:

The USA is the world's largest economy right next door. We do want trade but only if it is fair and stable.

    I gave the link to CUSMA. I didn't think I needed to copy/paste the relevant bits but since you asked, per article 32.10 items 1(a) and 1(b) relates to a "non-market country free trade agreements with which no party has signed a free trade agreement":

    Article 32.10: Non-Market Country FTA

    1. For the purposes of this Article:

    non-market country is a country:

    (a) that on the date of signature of this Agreement, a Party has determined to be a non-market economy for purposes of its trade remedy laws; and (b) with which no Party has signed a free trade agreement.

    I don't think I'm leaving anything out.

    China is a market economy as much as the US is. But it's still up to the US.

    a Party has determined to be a non-market economy for purposes of its trade remedy laws; and (b) with which no Party has signed a free trade agreement.
