No, we aren't. It simply states that H _Bush contributed to setup the *second* NAFTA deal between Canada/USA/Mexico and that such a process doesn't necessarily caused a USA (only, btw) recession conditions partially or not; for that, you'd need a Gulf War and Koweit restarting Oil supply after fixing some sabotaged wells for steady production.
