Its not a conspiracy, its just a plan.
From the Council on Foreign Relations Task Force

an excerpt:
In March 2005, the leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the United
States adopted a Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America
(SPP), establishing ministerial-levelworking groups to address key security
and economic issues facing North America and setting a short
deadline for reporting progress back to their governments. President
Bush described the significance of the SPP as putting forward acommon
commitment ‘‘to markets and democracy, freedom and trade, and
mutual prosperity and security.’’

A quick list of some initiatives

Transportation is a good one to start with.
Read about the International Trade Corridor and the NAIPIN website

Des Moines, Kansas City, Winnepeg, Alliance & San Antonio TX down to inland ports in central Mexico follow the Interstate 35 route then accros North Dakota and into Canada.

With this there is also NGATS, the Next Generation Air Transportation System

Excerpt:
The FAA, Canada and Mexico are working to create a regional Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), based on the U.S. Global Positioning System (GPS) throughout North America by 2008. We are working actively to complete site surveys, installations and testing, as well as finalize architectures, complete implementation plans, and conduct operational readiness activities. This trilateral initiative will include the installation of operational WAAS stations in Canada and Mexico to create a seamless satellite navigation capability that will transcend national boundaries and improve aviation safety and efficiency throughout the entire North American region.
------------------
They have already installed 5 of these WAAS in Canada & Mexico. This works with the GPS satellites.
It locates the aircraft down to 1.5 - 2 meter horizontally as well as vertically. Pretty much pin point.
If you've read about the recent launch of the IRIS satellite, a first in the series/system for testing, you might think it will be used to enhance NGATS.
Excerpt:
"Iris extends the internet into space, integrating satellite systems and the ground infrastructure for warfighters, first responders and others who need seamless and instant communications," said Bill Shernit, CEO of Intelsat general.
After initial testing the satellite will be opened up for commercial use.

If you follow anything regarding space & aeronautics or even the warfighting equipment being developed, not much of this will surprise you. If you get your news from the alphabet crowd you will most likely be atstonished.
Some more food for thought.
With the NextGen AirTrans the target is for autonomous flight.
That is no pilots for you.
We have the Unmanned Air Vehicles at work in the middle east and have projects for testing and evaluation now.
Sensis is testing in Cleveland a 'virtual tower'. Look up Sensis.
An air traffic controller can control a region rather than just a runway.
Robots made to look like a human, or computers made to look human?
Either way, this may very well be the future of pilots. In order to pare down costs a 'pilot buddy' robot will show up first.
The next time you see your pilots walking up to the airplane or through the terminal you'll have to wonder if you are flying on the cutting edge.

However in my path of studies and in all the reading, I have not come across any official statements, terms or ideas pointing towards a community currency being pushed by a member of the trinational agreement.
Not to say its not there or won't happen, I just haven't seen officialdom address it.
