While nothing is apparently written in stone, it appears secret negotiations are underway that could lead to the implementation of new currency and coins for the American Continents.

(SALEM, Ore.) - Ignorance is a silent killer, and it appears that the U.S. government along with Mexico and Canada, may be as stealthy as Jack the Ripper when it comes to the proposed North American Union Free Trade Agreement. That may be a severe assessment, but when it comes to the end of the American dream, people get a little punchy.
Lou Dobbs of CNN calls it, "A proposal for an expanded so-called free trade zone from Alaska to the tip of South America." He says it is not a government program, instead it is formed by international corporations who according to some sources, have seen a 45% increase in profits overall in the last five years, while the American workforce has seen a 3% increase overall.
"Its a plan from the business elites, the political elites that will cost more American jobs, cost American sovereignty, but it would fulfill the President's father's vision."
Dobbs is referring to a period of time in the late 80's and early 90's when George H.W. Bush was in office, and a single world government was touted frequently.
While in office, President Bush described plans for his futuristic notion by saying, "It is a big idea; a new world order, where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause."
The plan involves many things, but the overall idea is to loosen trade regulations between the Canada, the U.S., Mexico and apparently some other countries as well.

TRANSCRIPT FROM CNN.com.
FOX: Long term, very long term. What we propose together, President Bush and myself, it's ALCA, which is a trade union for all of the Americas. And everything was running fluently until Hugo Chavez came. He decided to isolate himself. He decided to combat the idea and destroy the idea...
KING: It's going to be like the euro dollar, you mean?
FOX: Well, that would be long, long term. I think the processes to go, first step into is trading agreement. And then further on, a new vision, like we are trying to do with NAFTA.
While the question was about a currency for Latin America, Fox's answer vis-a-vis a North American currency is ambiguous.
