The idea

Canada and the United States share language and history. Early industry ran on the Northeast's hydropower; steam after the eighteen sixties spread it, and the manufacturing core led the world by the early twentieth century. Cities began on the eastern coast and stayed near water.

In practice

NAFTA, nineteen ninety-four; USMCA, twenty eighteen.

Where people slip

The anchor names a president; the course does not.
