IMCTP claim moved here

There are a lot of conspiracy theories about NAFTA superhighways; I can't tell whether the below claim is one of them or is an actual stated goal of the SPP. I moved it here because it doesn't cite a source; feel free to put it back if you find a reliable one.

It was intended to assist, rather than replace, existing bilateral and trilateral institutions like the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and to work towards the three North American countries working cooperatively in the face of common risks and economic competition from low-cost, multimodal transportation system along the International Mid-Continent Trade Corridor to improving both the trade competitiveness and quality of life in North America.

CFR / Trilateral

The Council on Foreign Relations supported regional and global currencies designed to replace nationally issued currencies. See an article in the May/June issue of Foreign Affairs, entitled "The End of National Currency," CFR economist Benn Steil asserted the dollar is a temporary currency. He concluded "countries should abandon monetary nationalism," moving to adopt regional currencies, on the road to a global "one world currency." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.106.252.127 (talk) 11:37, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
