Abella asked:

Can you please explain what this means? Who spearheaded the negotiations? I am so confused…

Bush’s administration, along with the Progressive Conservative Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, spearheaded the negotiations of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which would eliminate the majority of tariffs on products traded among the United States, Canada, and Mexico, to encourage trade amongst the countries.
Yeah I know, George Bush was an idiot. So was his son.

Ceyanne Nathaniel asked:

“This is not up for negotiation or further interpretation by anyone. Any deviation will be considered a serious violation and the maker a failure.”

2nd version:
“The following contents is not up for negotiation or further interpretation by anyone. Any deviation from the writtern plan, for whatever reason possible, will be considered a serious violation and the maker a failure.”

I’m planning to write that on my organizer to keep myself reminding to follow whatever I’ll write on it. Is it correct?
Or rather, can you tell me which is better and give me some suggestions about my words if you think something’s wrong?
Ooops. If possible, please give me the correct spanish translation of your answer.
