I've heard of this idea in passing...
Worst. Idea. Ever.
Hyperboles aside, our economies are too disparate. Willravel is right, it would screw up too many people.
For Canada, it would be akin to economic suicide. Our economy is relatively stable, why marry it to two other economies (being several times larger and with some stability issues)?
The question remains, though: would this be even worse than NAFTA?
