For further background information of the effects on Canada because of the impending North American Union, you can do no better than to read Maude Barlow’s “Too Close for Comfort” wherein Ms Barlow provides painstaking and shocking facts into the economic pillage that will affect all citizens except the wealthiest of the elite.
The purpose of this article is to analyze what else is going on in our countries right now, and then to determine what relationship this activity has with the NAU. I am stating up front that these arguments will be conjectural but need to be addressed.
Decline of U.S. Economy
There’s no shortage of articles on the Internet explaining the ‘life-support’ system that the U.S. economy is on. The Washington Post referred to the upcoming bust earlier this month. Stock prices and company valuations are set to take a fall and government may have to raise taxes. Interest rates are starting to rise, and the staggering debt-financed consumption in the U.S. will lead to massive defaults on mortgages and a huge ‘asset grab’ by the rich. China and Middle East oil magnates, who will not permit interest rates to come down, are propping up the United States.
Predictions vary but we may start seeing major monetary shocks by December 2007, but more likely in 2008.
American Dollar= Canadian Dollar= 10 Pesos
The Canadian dollar this week hit a thirty-year high and traded at $.96 American. It is expected to achieve parity with the American dollar this year. This will mean that both the American and Canadian dollar will trade for somewhere around 10 Mexican pesos.
I find this sudden parity of currencies to be extremely coincidental since one of the tenets of the North American Union will be a new currency. This is not speculation. It is part of the SPP agreement that will assuredly be ratified in Montebello next month. So, with the currencies of the three countries now closely aligned, it will be a lot easier to introduce a new North American currency, the AMERO!
United States Immigration Crisis
There are an estimated 15 to 20,000,000 illegal immigrants, mostly from Mexico living in the United States. The administration of George W. Bush has deliberately allowed this to happen and is now doing a tap dance to stall any immediate action to resolve this huge problem.
The point is, if you knew we were heading into a North American Union in 2010, to which Bush is a proponent, why would this worry you?
All he needs to do is stall until 2008, and let the new president stall for another 2 years. By 2010, it will all be academic since the ‘illegals’ will become ‘legal’ overnight. In the European Union the countries are virtually borderless. People travel from France to Spain just like people travel from Ontario to Quebec or from Vermont to New Hampshire. The borders will disappear overnight. The illegal immigration problem will disappear as well.
Passport Issue
A prior article on <a href="http://www.realitycheck.typepad.com">www.realitycheck.typepad.com</a>
deals with the passport issue between Canada and the United States. The requirements between the two countries keep changing, and people are very confused. Now the idea of a ‘smart card’ has surfaced and is currently be ‘tested.’
My sense is that, as with the imminent Amero currency, officials are stalling because there will be new requirements, or perhaps no requirements, since we will all become part of one North American Union, and would only require a passport when we leave or enter that union.
Conclusion
Other articles on this subject suggest that the general public will resist such huge changes, having had no input, information or rebuttal to the whole idea of a North American Union. By now, we should all understand that we are part of a fascist state since we are being denied ANY opportunities for democratic participation into what amounts to the most abrupt, fraudulent and pervasive change in our governance since Confederation.
The question is: how will the elite, the corporate rulers and the government leaders ‘sell’ this bill of goods to the electorate?
Traditionally, instilling a climate of fear and using the tried and true, ‘problem-reaction-solution’ method achieves this.
Whether it be a thoughtful, well planned and executed economic crash, or whether some tragic and unforeseen ‘event’ happens, a frightened population will always react to the problem and demand a solution from its government.
And lo and behold, the government will just happen to have a solution in its back pocket, something that has been in the making since former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney signed the Free Trade Agreement in Canada in 1984. Since 1984 our governments have been working towards one final goal.
Welcome to 2010. Welcome to the North American Union.
It is very interesting to note that both the Meech Lake and Charlottetown Accords, declaring PQ as a "distinct society", have failed due to public pressure and referendum.
Now, here we have the SPP and the NAU, which have about a thousand times more loss of freedoms than the distinct society clause ever promised, or demanded, yet, our clever politicians are negotiating the sale of the country in secret, ignoring any public input, or decision making chance, or powers.
So this is called "democracy" in this 21st century? Come to think of it, I have seen similar versions of it under Hitler and Stalin, but now it has become fashionable, claiming that
Canadian soldiers died in 2 world wars, fighting to put the country under the rule of the North American Competitiveness Council, calling it "freedom".
Ed Deak.
Montebello is also very closed to Meech Lake. Unreal.
Also odd that the Quebec sovereignist movement (aside the odd exceptions) is not crying wolf to this huge sovereignty threat. I have been trying to get Joseph Facal to pay attention to this without much success. He is by all means the brightest Quebec sovereignist lightbulb.

<i>Also odd that the Quebec sovereignist movement (aside the odd exceptions) is not crying wolf to this huge sovereignty threat.</i><p>I can't say how Canadians in the ROC feel and think about this Montebello meeting and the North American integration plan but here in Québec, dare mention it and you are perceived as being a prime candidate for the looney bin. The great majority of Québecers just don't believe this is a real thing, that it is happening now or that they will ever see it in their lifetime. If he wishes to remain credible in the public eye, Facal will remain silent on the subject, especially if his intentions are to make a political comeback on the provincial scene. For Facal to cry wolf on this subject, it would be like committing political hara-kiri and to be remembered as a conspiracy lunatic. <p>---<br>« Il y a une belle, une terrible rationalité dans la décision d'être libre. » - Gérard Bergeron <br />
I certainly would like to believe too that this NAU/SPP is not a serious sovereignty threat. But the names that it comes with make it otherwise, including "Montebello" pas loin de Meech. The precedents too. Les souverainistes Québécois pourraient-ils possiblement souffrir d'un <i>blainde spot</i> en français sur cette menace? Messemble que l'ancienne Michou s'en préoccupait davantage... <p>---<br>"We are all in this together somehow, some more than others somehow"
"If he wishes to remain credible in the public eye, Facal will remain silent . . ."
'Communitarian law' at it's finest. Keep information from the people by branding the messenger as a kook.
This is one of those times when I wish the Quebec Sovereigty movement was shouting from the rooftops - and people were listening. If her were speaking about the US Army making decisions on where people could protest in Quebec - would they listen to that?

AJ talks with Dr. Jerome Corsi today on hour two of the Alex Jones show. They discuss the recent book he wrote called 'The Late Great USA' and SPP/NAU in detail.
Touchée Dr. Caleb sur un deuxième <i>blainde spotte</i>. I guess we better watch our own blind spots as we each have plenty of them too. Don't we? Michou is particularly skilled at reaching them! And I bet she can bite too. <p>---<br>"We are all in this together somehow, some more than others somehow"
Merci, Gaulois. She is good at that. I think she could bite, but prefers just to nibble.

<i>This is one of those times when I wish the Quebec Sovereigty movement was shouting from the rooftops - and people were listening.</i><p>Now THA'S a mouth opener coming from you, DrC ! But some things never change and we can expect Québec sovereigntists to once again disappoint . <p> I just googled "bush-harper-calderon-montebello" on Canada-francais news for a result of 10 measly press articles since the month of June, with a mere two from any major media. One of them refers to those protesters planning to "perturb" the meeting as being anti-capitalists, while on the Canadian english side, the press has dubbed them anarchists. What does that make you and me, DrC ? <p> Like most canadians or québécers, sovereigntists are neither anti- capitalists nor anarchists and they do like their slippers to be comfortable.<p>Without the press, sovereigntists are like anyone else. They follow, blindly. <p>---<br>« Il y a une belle, une terrible rationalité dans la décision d'être libre. » - Gérard Bergeron <br />
"Now THA'S a mouth opener coming from you, DrC !"
We must band together, to stop the larger common enemy. Nether sovereignties can survive our own government.
"What does that make you and me, DrC ?"
Anarchists is too extreme. We're the people demanding our governments stand for why they were elected.
"Without the press, sovereigntists are like anyone else. They follow, blindly."
I don't think the word 'sovereigntists' needs to be there. There are sheeple on both sides of that debate. But I do agree.

it's unbelievable what's going on and how low key this all is! most americans aren't even aware of what's going on and it's the same with mexico. at least the canadians are voicing strongly their disapproval because something needs to happen before it's too late. the federal reserve of the U.S. already screws the government by taking interest on all money it prints for the government and if the amero gets put in place something like this will be happening to all three countries (or should i say one) collectively. it's a way to have even more control over middle and lower class and a step closer to one government for the entire world.
