Maastricht Treaty revisions needed?

[Lissa]

Because NAFTA has worked out so well?

Pete,

What's wrong with NAFTA? I think it's been a net positive for all involved, although the US has perhaps gained less than its neighbours. Nationalists on all sides naturally argue that somehow their country has got the short end of the stick, but I think that's mostly just posturing.

Actually, NAFTA has hurt some areas. Case in point, where myself, Voiceman and his brothers grew up, the main industry (Logging) has been severally hurt. The logging plant in Omak has teetered on closing down since NAFTA went into effect (where as it was a reliable employer prior to NAFTA). So while things may have been prosperous for the countries involved, regions within those countries have see a loss of prosperity due to it while others have seen a gain.
