The Trudeau government is taking a mixed approach to Mexico charting its own path to economic growth, as a desire for more trade and better labour rights bumps up against mining reform and agriculture regulations that have riled Canadian firms.

Ahead of a visit this week of senior Mexican officials, Labour Minister Seamus O'Regan was in Mexico this month taking stock of the country's growing movement to unionize, which has been undergoing major reforms with some Canadian help.

Those provisions have been enthusiastically taken up by the administration of Mexico's populist centre-left president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, often known as AMLO. The country has inked thousands of new agreements governed by scores of brand-new labour tribunals. O'Regan's department has also stationed two envoys in the country to monitor progress on the reforms, which he said is the first time Canadian labour attachés have been posted abroad.

Those items will likely be raised this week when senior officials from both countries will meet to take stock of trade, investment and skilled labour, under what's officially called a high-level economic dialogue.Mexico is the world's top provider of silver, which is a key metal for electric vehicles and solar power.
