    Until NAFTA stands more for equal dollar trading and industry standards in all 3 countries you will have companies shut down an over paid sector to move it where they can get it done cheaper but still push their products in our faces. Lets change NAFTA so Canada gets more money for oil shipped south and our lumber is not taxed because of lame politics. Jobs will not get sent south of the Rio Grande if the US and Canada stand up and make Mexico clean up and use environment standards fitting of what we have to deal with. Or impose heavy levies on imported goods from that area that have been previously made in our countries, this will stop corporations from running off to Mexico to screw us over.
