U.S. President Donald Trump named longtime Republican donor Kelly Craft as ambassador to Canada Wednesday as the administration gears up for a round of negotiations on the North American Free Trade Agreement.
Craft, who was first said in March to have accepted the nomination, will still need to be confirmed. Canada is the top export market for U.S. goods and its second-largest trading partner after China.
