> it's basically what we have now, but no passport required for us to travel between one another, and you get a constitution. 1 we get a us passport and the right to live and work anywhere in the us. americans get the right to live, work and hunt/fish in alberta anytime they wish. 2 we get to use the us dollar, no exchange rate differential and full tariff free (both ways) access to the us economy. 3. us tier (lower) pricing for food and consumer products because of high volumes. bilingual labelling requirements also raise costs. 4. non-tariff barriers removed, ie, many products cannot be sold in canada unless they have been approved by the canadian testing labs, despite already being tested and approved in the usa and elsewhere. (hurricane lamps and many other quality items are unavailable in canada) 4. we would pay no us federal taxes
