You're a rather late convert to the cause of foresight in public decision-making. We could have used you back in 2003.
Sorry Ace, the stuff about linking up with the EU has been under discussion for a while, a couple of years at least. It has hit the news in the past few days because the pro-EU-Canada pact just released the report from their study. If anything, i'd say the motivation for this was more Fearless Leader's fuck you attitude to the rest of the world than Obama.
In any case, there is a lot of opposition to free trade in Canada, Mexico, and the US. In no way is it a done deal.
