Why have Canada and us put more factories in Mexico?
The United States and Canada are highly developed countries, while Mexico is not. This means a worker in the US would earn some 30-40 USD$/hour, while in Mexico the same worker would earn just 5-6 USD$/hour. This wage difference means a lot in savings for American and Canadian companies, who then "offshore" their production to Mexico and other countries with lower wages, such as Vietnam or China.

Maquiladoras are factories in Mexico that assemble and build goods for the US. The principle is that these factories import materials duty and tariff free, assemble the product and then send them back to the USA to be sold. The driving force behind this is cheap labour to do simple jobs.
