NAFTA and the NAU would have the exact same results of forign companies buying out jobs, plants and other companies from other countries within the NAU.... it wouldn't do anything better, it's just be a bigger NAFTA, which means bigger problems.
Put many in the US, Mexico and Canada to the vote on this decision of the NAU and you'll see a grand majority opposing it. Even if our governments attempted to do this without our approval (Mex, US, Can) ~ You can very well expect sh*t to fly.
Want to know what the NAU would look like in the future? Take a look at what happened to Atlantic Canada to the rest of Canada. All the money, jobs and development goes out west..... all our jobs, companies, residents and workers head out west because that's there the jobs are.... population and development here drops.
NAU? The majority of the business, development and work goes to central US and Canada, everybody in each country would then have to migrate to where the jobs are, more towns, provinces and states become ghost towns, continually begging for money and development from the governments to keep workers and a life going..... like the maritimes, they'll get cents and lint, while a few keep getting richer/bigger.... and just like today, while the overall GDP increases, it's skewed by the increase in a few provinces and states, while ignoring the main issues of those that need a lot of work and development.
But then again, that's capitalism for ya.... and a totally different subject.
