Abstract
This paper examines how the North American Free Trade Agreement was put together in 1993 and provides agreed upon resolutions for its members when it comes to free trade boundaries and rules. It shows how NAFTA had a positive impact on Mexico?s free trade industry because it strengthened an already strong relationship between the United States and Mexico. It looks at how NAFTA has allowed Mexico to increase in stature among world nations and how it has assisted in strengthening local Mexican economies, as well by providing more jobs as increased product and service continues. It also examines how it has boosted Mexico?s trade business with Canada as well.
From the Paper
"Because Mexico and the United States have the largest mutual trade relationship in the world the economic success of those in NAFTA becomes very important. Research and history points to a continued strengthening of the relationship shared because of NAFTA not only between Mexico and the US but Mexico and Canada as well. It is obviously helpful for the US and Mexico to trade through NAFTA because of their close boundaries but the Canadian-Mexico trade business is stronger than it has ever been according to the numbers and the NAFTA created the stage for that to happen. The trade with Canada and Mexico has increased more than eight billion over the last eight years."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that the implementation of international trade organizations like NAFTA has in fact increased inequality between the rich and the poor. The writer notes that although NAFTA has helped to bring prosperity to industrialized democracies, poorer countries have been left behind. The writer further points out that some economists feel that trade organizations like NAFTA are intended to facilitate Western economic domination over Third World governments and economies.
From the Paper
"Never before in human history has the world been both so integrated and so divided, for the emergence and development of international trade organizations like NAFTA has integrated global trade while accelerating socioeconomic and political inequality between the rich and the poor. Although many industrialized democracies have thrived and prospered in recent years, many Third World countries like Mexico have been left behind and are mired in debt and poverty. "

From the Paper
"The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) seeks to create a trading bloc consisting of Canada, the United States, and Mexico. The bulk of the treaty was negotiated by the Bush administration, but it falls to the Clinton administration to coordinate its ratification by Congress. The agreement is the subject of much controversy over whether American jobs would be lost or gained, and what the eventual affect of the agreement will be on the American economy. This research seeks to understand the effect of NAFTA on a smaller scale; namely, the effect of the agreement on those states which border Mexico.
To understand NAFTA's effect, it is necessary to understand the environment into which NAFTA will be implemented. Mexico effectively restructured its economy during the late 1980s. Prior to that time, the country was highly protectionist and..."

Abstract
The following paper argues that NAFTA has had a significant impact upon Canada. It further argues that Canada's free trade arrangement with the United States will pull it into the U.S. orbit in ways that will eventually make Canadian independence of any kind impossible. The possibility of a North American Monetary Union and the foundation for structures like a joint customs union are credible now in a way they arguably were not prior to the ratification of NAFTA. The paper claims that Canada allows itself to be bound more and more tightly to the American economy through vehicles such as the North American Free Trade Agreement and political and socio-cultural integration.
From the Paper
"Others go further to argue that Canada's free trade arrangement with the United States will pull it into the U.S. orbit in ways that will eventually make Canadian independence of any kind impossible. For example, the possibility of a North American Monetary Union and the foundation for structures like a joint customs union are credible now in a way they arguably were not prior to the ratification of the NAFTA. As well, one should not forget that the events of 9/11 have made some kind of "deeper" North American integration seem desirable to many (Gilbert, 202-203). In the end, as Canada allows itself to be bound more and more tightly to the American economy through vehicles such as the North American Free Trade Agreement, political and socio-cultural integration (already well-advanced in the latter case) will become more pronounced, as well.

Abstract
This paper will provide evidence that clearly supports the notion that NAFTA is unhealthy for Canada, economically, politically, and culturally. Parenthetically, it might also be added that it is bad for Mexico and the US as well. In sum, as it stands at present, there is little if anything meritorious about the formal relationship that economically binds the North American continent together. On an informal level, the consequences may even be worse.

Abstract
The paper discusses the drawbacks of the NAFTA agreement but reveals that the success of Canada's economic life depends on serious, pragmatic cooperation with the United States. The paper looks at the argument that Canada's political relationship with the U.S. should remain friendly, but its economic focus should shift to other regions such as China or India. The paper explains why an economic relationship with the United States is a necessity for Canada.
From the Paper
"Many Canadian citizens fear the nation is getting the short end of the stick regarding NAFTA. To date, there have been nine cases against Canada under Chapter 11 of NAFTA alone - all of which involved challenges by U.S. companies operating within Canada. Two of these cases revolved around the controversial 1996 Canada-U.S. Softwood Lumber agreement (Molot 163). Another case was brought against Canada by United Parcel Service (UPS), who argued that its Canadian position was being undermined by rivals Purolator Courier, Priority Courier and Expresspost (ibid, 163). Other cases involve Sun Belt Water Inc., who sued Canada for British Columbia's prohibition on the export of fresh water, and Crompton, who has sued the Canadian government for its decision to ban a pesticide desirable to the chemical manufacturer (ibid 163). Many question, then, how the NAFTA agreement is good for Canadians when such legal cases keep rising."

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), 2007.
This paper discusses the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) between the U.S., Mexico and Canada and its impact on the U.S. job market.

Abstract
This paper explains that the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was designed to open up the Canadian, U.S. and Mexican borders to free trade; however, NAFTA's ratification and implementation over the last decade has not had uniform success. The author points out that, while many detractors of NAFTA had predicted that the U.S. economy would run at an overall trade deficit with both Canada and Mexico, they failed to observe that overall exports to these two markets would increase greatly as well. The paper also examines the impact of NAFTA on the U.S. job market and concludes that some of the apparatus within NAFTA's regulatory structure, which allows for negotiation and renegotiation, should be utilized to make adjustments for the economic impact NAFTA has had on the U.S. economy especially on job loss. The paper includes tables on job creation and loss and wage changes.

"One industry that has been in decline in the U.S. for many years has been the textile industry. NAFTA's detractors often, supported by the U.S. textile industry itself, belabored this point in arguments against ratification of NAFTA. Cook points out that although NAFTA led to expanded markets for the U.S. textile industry by: 1) the elimination of import duties into Mexico on U.S. produced yarns and cotton, and 2) by mandating that Mexican textile manufacturers actually utilize U.S. yarn and cotton in textiles that are exported to the U.S. and Canadian markets."

Abstract
This paper looks into the ongoing restrictions and complications found in financial capital flows in the NAFTA area. It finds that the primary problem can be attributed to the relative underdevelopment of Mexico's economy and financial markets. While Canada is also disadvantaged by the agreement, cast in the dark shadow of the US, we have a much longer history of open trade with the US and the global economy at large. As a result, our financial markets are also much more developed. Mexico, in contrast, is like the Canada of the early 20th century: still struggling to achieve any meaningful degree of economic development and inherently more prone to keep its proverbial 'guard' up. To provide substance to this assertion, a brief background of the NAFTA agreement will be given followed by highlights of Mexican economic underdevelopment. Armed with this knowledge, an evaluation of the potential for more efficient financial markets in the NAFTA region will be provided.

Abstract
This paper takes a look at the positive and negative effects the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has had in Canada, the United States and Mexico. The paper asserts that NAFTA has taken on somewhat mythical proportions in the minds of its proponents and detractors alike. It holds that NAFTA has primarily struck a dissonant tone with the U.S. and Mexico, while Canada largely accepted its utility. To its detractors NAFTA offered a convenient scapegoat for all of the economic woes since its inception in January 1994, and to its proponents it has been responsible for most of the economic growth periods of the last 10 years. Yet, beyond all the hype, rhetoric, and ideology superficially imposed on it, NAFTA was a dynamic process that required monumental negotiation commitment on the part of the signatories and certainly on the part of Canada as the smallest market.
The paper concludes that, although NAFTA comes with its negative attributes, it has largely proven a boon to the Canadian economy and the country would be ill-advised to withdraw from the treaty.

History & Description
NAFTA Weaknesses & Failure
Benefits & Cost Outcomes
Conclusion
From the Paper
"While NAFTA has been somewhat contentious since before its inception, the economic results of the agreement have proven largely inline with the positive projections associated with NAFTA by its designers and supporters. In fact, the increasing reliance on free-trade agreements which essentially become a 5th column in a country's foreign policy mechanism, NAFTA has become not just an economic success but a political template for further free-trade agreements across the globe. Some researchers have pointed out that NAFTA was ground-breaking both for its visionary approach to expanded trade relationships and for its unique integration into the signatory countries' sovereignty."

Abstract
This paper explains that, a decade after the enactment of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) creating a borderless economy, Mexico has benefited from free trade but problems remain if it is to compete effectively with the rest of the world. The author points out that, the unemployment rate is close to zero in northern Mexico where manufacturing still is concentrated; however, manufacturing facilities are spreading out to other parts of the country. The paper stresses that, in spite of the vast improvements in the last ten years, Mexico still has some serious challenges ahead such as (1) the need to create one million new jobs each year in order to absorb the young workers entering the market and (2) smaller companies have trouble upgrading technology because of higher borrowing costs.
From the Paper
"Mexico has come a long way from the catastrophic financial crisis of 1994-1995, when millions of Mexicans were thrust into poverty and life savings were wiped out. Two million jobs were eliminated. The early days of NAFTA had failed to benefit Mexico as expected, and most of the manufacturing exports still came from the maquiladora sector along the northern border with the U.S. A corrupt and unstable political environment limited foreign investment. In January 1995, President Clinton was motivated to provide a $47 billion bailout of the Mexican economy."

Abstract
"This paper examines some of the costs and benefits of NAFTA for the Canadian economy. The author evaluates whether or not NAFTA could ever evolve into a more comprehensive alliance along the lines of the European Union. The paper relates that, determining the value of NAFTA to Canada is not a clear-cut case of good or bad.
From the Paper
"There are a variety of benefits and costs for Canada when considering continued participation in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). In fact, depending on who is questioned, the risks will alternately outweigh or underscore the benefits that NAFTA has to offer Canada. Determining the value of NAFTA, accordingly, is not a clear-cut case of good or bad. Instead, there are a myriad number of forces at work that can make NAFTA appealing in some instances but not others."
