Since NAFTA was enacted, U.S. foreign direct investment (FDI) in Canada and Mexico more than tripled to $348.7 billion (as of 2007, latest data available). Canadian and Mexican FDI in the U.S. grew to $219.2 billion.

Economic growth means a growth of the country’s income, which is connected to a nation’s output growth in a fixed period. The NAFTA has designed from a deal which is made by three countries, Canada, America and Mexico in prior decades. The vigorous growth of the inputs and outputs of the goods and services gave a promote action on these countries’ economy due to the free trade agreement. According to the details of the agreement, it is clearly close the relationships between a developing country and two developed countries. Because of this agreement, it creates a liquid circulation of trade and investment flows among the NAFTA members. In fact, to act as the largest single export market of the U.S.A, Canada sends ninety eight percent of its

The U.S. spend billions of dollars every year on preventative care such as heart disease, cancer, AIDS and many more disease; millions more are spent on trying to find a cure for disease such as MS, MD, AIDS, cancer, polo and so many more. The advantage to the U.S. would come by way of universal health care as it is today. With different measures of insurance coverage, a person benefits more by having the freedom to choose which health care and insurance needs are suitable for them, rather than being confined to only one group (Chernichovsky & Leibowitz, 2010).

Canada has established a clear goal towards helping businesses have long-term relationships & growth internationally and to save money.

Canada has become willing to aim their business intentions towards working with the WTO and other countries, in efforts to overcome their global presence issues. The “Free Trade Agreement” helps Canada’s exporter and manufacturer gain a competitive advantage globally (with Europe, Latin America and other countries) by exposing them to new customers and investment opportunities (resulting in greater sales numbers).

The economy of the province of Ontario is the largest in Canada and is rich and diversified. Ontario’s main international export is from the automotive sector with more than 30 % of all its exports.

North America consumes about 16.5% of the earth's land area and about 4.8% of its total surface and is known as a World Power to the rest of the world. For my section of this paper, I will be focusing on international sourcing and distribution in North America specifically Canada, United States, and Mexico. The binding ingredient when it comes to imports and exports in these three powerful countries is the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). NAFTA is one of the most influential international agreement between the US, Canada and Mexico that defined the economic, social and political development of the three countries and North American region. NAFTA's immediate aim was to increase cross-border commerce in North America, and in that

(Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada, 2011) The USA is projected to stay number one for the next 40 years. This poses a large threat for Canada if exports dropped to the US, however, they are not predicting any drop any time soon.

In my opinion, the top growth areas for Canada’s future trade are machinery including computers, electrical machinery and equipment, and aircraft /spacecraft. Essentially, I included all the industries that involve technology and the sciences because that is how civilization will advance. First of all, there are already predictions of what the future will hold with the advancement of technology, such as artificial intelligence, robots, and digital currency changes. For instance, we can already see how the internet, phones, and online banking has changed not only our lives but the potential of businesses.

Over the years, the U. S. auto industry's market has been experiencing fluctuations due to many reasons including: price, quality and foreign competition. General Motors Corporation (GM) which had been the leading car and truck manufacturer had been experiencing declining market share and facing stiff competition from both U.S manufacturers and foreign imports such as the Asian auto producers that included Toyota, Honda and Nissan. The main reason for increased foreign competition was that foreign cars were more fuel efficient, smaller, less expensive, and often more reliable than their American counterparts.
