It won’t. NAFTA is about trade only, and getting goods manufactured as cheaply as possible (don’t believe it? look at what is happening to manufacturing plants in Canada and the U.S. – they’re going to Mexico). The EU, on the other hand, is all encompassing – trade, legal issues, labour mobility, social norms. This means goods will be more expensive in the EU, but people’s jobs and culture are protected.

The two, in short, won’t ever mix – they’re oil and water.
