North American SuperCorridor Coalition’s goal is to improve the existing highways, freight lines, and canals in order to stretch transportation from the very base of Mexico, through the Heartland of the United States (Kansas City), and branching across Canada. Through improving our current infrastructure, NASCO is working with Lockheed Martin to implement a freight tracking system claimed to add security of containers coming into the United States. Unrelated to NASCO and to also further the North American Police State; Americans, Mexicans, and Canadians must worry about the international non-profit organization known as Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA).
