In case you’re unfamiliar with the international work-in-progress, named the “Security and Prosperity Partnership Of North America (SPP),” here’s an introduction. The program goal, according to a release by the White House Office of the Press Secretary, is “To enhance the competitive position of North American industries in the global-marketplace and to provide greater economic opportunity for all of our societies, while maintaining high standards of health and safety for our people, the United States, Mexico, and Canada will work together…”
The North American currency union is a proposal in which the three principal countries of North America, namely Canada, the United States and Mexico, would share a common currency. Implementation would probably involve the three countries giving up current currency units (Canadian dollar, US dollar and Mexican peso) and adopting a new one, created specifically for this purpose. The hypothetical currency for the union is sometimes referred to as the amero. The concept is modeled on the common European Union currency (the euro) and it is argued to be a natural extension of NAFTA. Conspiracy theorists contend that the governments of the US, Canada, and Mexico are already taking steps to implement such a currency.
The incredible part of this story is that JoyEngine has been invited to participate in the design of this new currency. The JoyEngine team has started a dialogue with officials involved in the transition.
