Some of them do; some of them don't. NAFTA was sold as a "Marshall Plan" that would make Mexico a wealthy nation, but it lacked the structural reforms needed to work such way. It also has worsened rural conditions in Mexico, as laborers cannot compete against the heavily subsidized products cultivated in the US and Canada. Finally, in the case of American and Canadian companies, cheaper labor costs found in Mexico have forced many companies to close their plants in their home countries, leaving many jobless workers behind.

On the other hand, it has worked as a shock therapy for the Mexican companies, who suddenly had to compete globally; it also has allowed many other companies in the US and Canada to increase their profits.
