What If North America Suddenly Sank Into the Oceans?

Imagine if Earth suddenly lost an entire continent. North America wouldn't just vanish off the face of the planet, of course. Instead, it would sink into the oceans. What could cause this chain of unfortunate events? How long would it take for the continent to go down? How would this change the rest of the world?

I had a nightmare about the ocean covering all land on Earth. Now I come to find out that it's actually going to happen. Well, assuming that most of the oceans don't evaporate by then. Great.
