We’ll be fine, Obama’s going to pull us out of NAFTA and all will be good again. Well, except that Canada will then re-negotiate our access to their oil which would cripple us. > **[McCain hails NAFTA and Canada's role in Afghanistan | CBC News](http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/mccain-hails-nafta-and-canada-s-role-in-afghanistan-1.707112)** > > Republican presidential hopeful John McCain reaffirmed his support Friday for the North American Free Trade Agreement, scolding his Democratic rivals for saying they would reopen the 15-year-old treaty. > **[If NAFTA opened, oil could be on table: Emerson | The Star](https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2008/02/27/if_nafta_opened_oil_could_be_on_table_emerson.html)** > > Trade Minister David Emerson suggested today that if the United States insisted on reopening NAFTA, then it's possible U.S. access to Canadian oil would be back on the table.

How about we deal with our own energy and polution issues before trying to tell other countries how to deal with theirs. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/buffett-says-us-in-recession-new-manufacturing-report/44331)._
