It is called the theory of plate tectonics.
it is called "Continental Drift"

continental drift
The idea that continents move slowly across the earth's surface is called the continental drift.
The major issue in that regard was that Wegener did not have a plausible mechanism by which continents might move.
The continents are situated on top of tectonic plates which float on the Earth's magma under the crust. This means that the plates move about, which means yes, the continents will move but it will be very, VERY slow.

Plate Activity causes it to move.
A pole shift is not what causes the continents to move. It is the pressures from under the oceans' plates.
The fact that plates move apart means that the plates will carry anything.
