Abstract/ Summary

The proposed North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)¹ between Canada, the United States of America and Mexico is a logical and perhaps inevitable extensions of the 1989 Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between Canada and the U.S.A. Both agreements are controversial and massive public opposition to them exists in all three countries² for good reasons, as we shall see. The citizens of these three democracies have never been provided with a credible explanation of the need for agreement.
