NAFTA has contributed to a significant increase in Mexico's per-capita income. However, the other options are not accurate. While some workers at maquiladoras (factories in Mexico that benefit from NAFTA) have gone on strike, it is not a widespread trend. Canadian exports to Europe and Asia have increased, but not necessarily doubled as a result of NAFTA. Finally, while foreign investors have certainly invested in Mexico and Canada as part of NAFTA, there has not been a wholesale replacement of foreign investors with U.S. firms.
