Our refugee and immigrant policies are almost the same and it would not be difficult to make them standard, we have many similar standards when it comes to toxic waste, various equipment, and the environment as well. The main differences in creating similar policies would be in compromising on the few things were we disagree.

I have never once heard anyone talking about a North American Currency or ID. Where did this idea come from? I know I occasionally leave the country for business now and then, but Im sure I would have heard of that....[/QUOTE]It had been floating around in news papers up here when the EU currency came out. It doesn't surprise me that you haven't heard anything about it because the US media basically treats Canada as the 51st state.
Here is a recent article on co-ordinated security

I will try to find something on the idea for a north american currancy but it was some time ago.
