The demographers are predicting that in the next several decades the population growth in that corridor percentage wise may be the greatest on the North American Continent. That comes about in part because of the desirable environment of the area. in part because of the CanadianAmerican FreeTrade Agreement and other reasons. Just to give you one statistic. in 1986 the vehicular border crossings at Blaine. WA. in this corridor across the CanadianAmerican border were 5 million. approximately 5 million.
