Such a union would only benefit the businesses in the US that use cheap labor. It would keep the wages down for working class Americans, and it would effectively end the US of A. Without borders you cannot have a country. There would be no difference of going form Mexico to the US or Canada, then from going from New York to New Jersey. This union must be stopped!

Well Bush Sr. signed the bill which started NAFTA or the north american free trade agreement and since then the economies of Canada, the US, & Mexico grew by almost 15% & created hundreds of 1000s of new jobs in all of those countries.

The only people that are benefiting from it now are the people who need really cheep labor and who want to drive down the wages of Canadians and Americans. I'd say Mexico is suffering too since NAFTA. But the people benefitting are the corporate rich elitests who can now avoid the labor laws by hiring undocumented workers.

None. We'd probably have to rewrite half of our laws to make the Canadians happy, not that alot of our laws don't need rewritten but not to their standards. And Mexico would probably just about die as a country except for the resorts down on gulf. Industry sucks there, and the Peso is worthless.

There are much more resources and many more people to exploit.
The "prosperity gap" will widen.
The rich will be richer and the poor poorer.
A rising tide lifts all ships? Not true, it only lifts the ones that are "afloat"; the others only get in deeper over their head.

Well, for one it would solve lots of immigration problems.
Also, the majority of oil consumed in the US comes from either Mexico or Canada. Making it one country keeps all that oil in-house, rather than being purchased from another country.
But it's unlikely to ever happen because of nationalist interests.

Oil. The gulf of Mexico and Alberta tar sands are both very rich in oil.

Oil is a big factor and of course they have our borders.
