If the United States deregulates ISP’s and the net is no longer ‘neutral’ in the USA, how will this affect access to the internet for those who do not live in the United States?

It won't. Most services that might be affected by Net Neutrality in the US have data centres in other countries. Netflix, for example, has all of their Canadian content on servers in Canada. Facebook, too, has datacentres local to the country they serve data to. Plus, most if not all ISPs have peering agreements with all others; if they want our data, they have to give data, for free. That means the smaller sites, like Bob's Bait Shop and Pharmacy in the US is too small to worry about, and won't be worth throttling and won't be affected bu us, either.

So, short answer, not in the slightest. Our ISPs will be looking over at the US wishing they could do the same in order toboost their profits, but our respective governments are quietly tapping the regulatory hammer off to one side so they don't dare.
