Default North American Union

i mentioned the north american union here a while ago, which is an effort to merge USA, Canada and Mexico into a union of countries modelled after the EU, and i got made fun of and told I was a lunatic conspiracy theorist. however, I notice its all over the internet now and even lou dobbs from CNN has commentated on it, removing any doubt that it is NOT just some stupid conspiracy. so what does everybody think of it - good or bad, and will it happen or not???

Opening the debate - Regardless of what I think about it, it will happen soon enough I believe.

IMHO, its just a natural extension of NAFTA, similar to the european change in the 70's/80's (EEC as a precursor to the EU).

Seems that the Canadians have really got a bee in their bonnet about it (Little man syndrome?- 30M people compared to Mexico with 110M and US with 300M - or is it the je me souviens mentality or the soverignty issue I wonder:?)

p.s. Lou Dobbs is fiercly anti-NAU. It rips out of him every time he mentions it.
