  by our Own Government: North American Union  

Summary and Part one: The Metamorphosis and Sabotage of

Canada by our Own Government: North American Union

 

The Meta-morphosis and the Sabotage of Canada by our Own

Government:

 

 

Summary:

 

The North American continent is being transformed from

three sovereign nations (Canada, USA, Mexico) into one

regional corporate power base, the North American Union.

Unlike the creation of the European Union, there is no

public  political/ academic discourse on the merits, or

pros and cons of a North American Union building up to a

vote within each nation as to the wish of the people to

join such a union.  Instead the union is being created by

stealth, is already well on its way to fruition, and is

being imposed on us by our own elected representatives and

government with no opposition.

 

The driving forces are corporate and military. The Chief

Executive Officers of the most powerful corporations

operating in the three countries want this union and have

been working for some time devising their strategies and

goals. Their facilitators are first, unelected officials

and bureaucrats who move easily between corporations and

government; second, former elected officials like John

Manley , former Deputy Prime Minister of Canada; third,

the heads of the three nations, Martin, Bush, and Fox; and

finally, the governments and the rest of the elected

members who apparently just rubber stamp what is put in

front of them by the unelected officials- few questions,

if any asked.

 

The ultimate enforcement mechanism for the North American

Union is a police state.

 

The tools for the police state are "anti-terrorist" laws.

 

Anti Terrorist laws are a ruse to strip the citizens of

civil liberties in order to prevent dissent against the

police state.

 

The Orwellian justification is "security", "safety".

 

Part one deals with the North American Union of Canada USA

and Mexico. It is being created by the corporate side

under the North American Task Force, and the military side

by the Binational Military Planning group.

 

Part Two deals with -Laws Arrangements and Agreements all

of which throw away our sovereignty, independence,  and

our civil liberties.

 

    1. The Canada -U.S. Smart Border Declaration with a 30

    point action plan signed Dec 12,2001

        2. The Public Safety Act, 2002  with despotic powers to

    certain Cabinet Ministers

        3. The Anti Terrorism Act currently under review

        4. The Security and Prosperity Partnership Agreement

    signed by Bush and Martin in March of 2005

        5. 40 Point Smart Regulation Action Plan announced March

    24 2005

 

Part Three deals with the effect of all this bad law, some

history, and what to do about it.

 

I am sending my article  in three parts over time due to

its length. Part one is included in this e mail.  I have

included many urls to take you to sources to substantiate

what I am saying.  I continue to be surprised by the

number of people who still refuse to believe that the

scenario I describe  is happening, and who demand to be

taken off my broadcast lists.

 

This article will also be available in full on the CAP/PAC

website.

The Metamorphosis and Sabotage of Canada by our Own

Government

 

Part 1- North American Union

 

* The Metamorphosis of Canada, USA and Mexico  into the

North American Union

 

Canadian patriots have been focusing on the wrong threat-

annexation to the U.S.A with no voting rights, only colony

status like a  Gibraltar. The real plan emerges. The fact

is that we are now already metamorphosing into something

else- A North American Union comprised of Canada,

U.S.A.,and Mexico.  The goal is an internally  borderless

North America rid of the constitutional structures and

rules of the separate nations that created and protected the democratic fabric of the respective peoples.

 

This Union is planned, directed, organized and coordinated

by  unelected, unaccountable people of  the military

/industrial complex with a few academic apologists thrown in for good measure. It is being facilitated by all three

elected  governments. This is the same military/industrial

complex that General Eisenhower warned against.

 

This group is creating a despotic regime for the pursuit

of their interest (rapacious greed and power) which is

diametrically opposed to the needs and interests of the

citizens in all three countries. Their  plan is to make

all of North America their power base acting in their

interest only. Forget the people

 

The two bodies (one corporate, one military) which have

been  functioning for some time  to create this treasonous

union are well advanced in that formation.  They are:  the

Canada-U.S.A-Mexico  task force and The Binational

Military Planning Group.

 

1. The corporate side:  the Canada-U.S.A-Mexico  task

force

 

The Canada-U.S.A-Mexico  Task Force is comprised of the leading CEOs of the most powerful corporations from

Canada, USA and Mexico, prominent former officials,

businessmen, and academic apologists from all three

countries.  They are:

    (a.) From  U.S.A. - Council on Foreign Relations;

        (b).  From Mexico- the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos

    Internacionales;

        (c.)  From Canada: Canadian Council of Chief Executives-

    Founded in 1976, the Canadian Council of Chief Executives

    is Canada's premier business association  composed of the

    chief executives of 150 leading Canadian enterprises. The

    CCCE was the Canadian private sector leader in the

    development and promotion of the Canada-United States Free

    Trade Agreement during the 1980s and of the subsequent

    trilateral North American Free Trade Agreement.

 

This task force is currently headed by Canada’s own former

Liberal Deputy Prime Minister, John Manley (who allegedly

seeks to replace Paul Martin as Prime Minister).

 

This task force was sanctioned by the three leaders, Prime

Minister Martin, President Bush and President Fox, in

March of 2005 at a special meeting in Texas at Bush’s

ranch at which the three leaders  signed the Security and

Prosperity Partnership of North America.

 

In practice, the elected governments of the three

countries are the willing dupes promulgating laws that

impose a police state in order to enforce rules that

enable the new regime. Some would call this treason.

 

(2) The military side: The Binational Military Planning

Group-

 

Founded in late 2002,its mandate is to lay the groundwork

for the integration of a Canada -US military command

structure, and the militarization of civilian law

enforcement, and judicial function in Canada and the USA.

Their stated mandate is first to prepare contingency plans

to respond to land and sea threats, and attacks, and other

major emergencies; and  second,  to plan for coordinated

response for military assistance to civil authorities in

the event of  threat  or attack, and  for civil emergency

in Canada and the USA.

 

Neither of the Task Force nor the Military Planning group is  accountable to the US Congress, nor to the Canadian

House of Commons, nor to the Mexican government, and

certainly Not to the citizenry.

 

1. Let’s focus first on the corporate side, the Canada-

USA- Mexico task force.

And: Trilateral Commission website

http://www.trilateral.org/

 

And: Council on Foreign Relations: Trinational call for a

North American Economic and Security Community by 2010

http://www.cfr.org/publication.html?id=7914

 

These Canadian, U.S., and Mexican elites are the same

players who gave us the FTA and the NAFTA. They continue

their work creating a North American union that integrates our economies and transforms our total

policy-making capacity away from the public interest and

away from the public good.

 

This plan goes by various names:

    Deep Integration

    Harmonization

    NAFTA-plus

    the "Big Idea" (C.D. Howe Institute)

    the "North American Security and Prosperity Initiative"

    Americanization

 

The plan of this Canada-U.S.-Mexico  task force is to

establish a continent-wide customs union with a common

approach to trade, energy, immigration, law enforcement

and security that would virtually eliminate existing

national borders. The task force released its

recommendations  for a common North American in May 17/18

2005.There was minor reference to it in mainstream media-

no headline presentation. The recommendations include:

 

    * *  a common security perimeter by 2010.

        * *  a North American Border Pass with biometric

    identifiers.

        * *  a unified border  and expanded customs facilities.

        ** a single economic space: (It is this area that would

    destroy any opportunity to bring back the use of our Bank

    of Canada.)

        * * a common external tariff.

        * *  seamless movement of goods within North America.

        * * Full labor mobility between Canada and the U.S.  (Note

    they apparently do not want the Mexican labourers??)

        * * A North American energy strategy -as a regional

    alternative to Kyoto.

        * * Review those sectors of NAFTA that were excluded.

        * * A North American regulatory plan that would include

    "open skies and open roads" and a unified approach  on

    food, health, and the environment.

        * * Expand temporary worker programs and create a "North

    American preference" for immigration for citizens of North

    America. * * A North American Investment Fund to build

    infrastructure to connect Mexico's poorer regions in the

    south to the market to the north.

        * * Restructure and reform Mexico's public finances.

        * * Fully develop Mexican energy resources (Mexico wisely

    kept their energy out of NAFTA)

        * * A permanent tribunal for trade and investment

    disputes.( Here is where any vestige of democratic

    government disappears)

        * * An annual North American summit meeting.

        * * A Tri-national Competition Commission with a common

    approach to trade remedies.

        * * Scholarships for  a network of Centers for North

    American Studies. (To serve the corporations)

The few media references to the task force parrot the Orwellian double speak of the task force and politicians. The effect is to trick the people into believing this process  is something good for us. But if you read carefully, you can identify  that the regime change is all about the greed of an elite few. In order to manipulate us into accepting the regime change, they pretend it will protect us from "terrorists". Terrorism has become the external threat, the bogey- man replacing Communism, just as Moslems have replaced Jews as scapegoats..

 

From Reuters:

 

"NEW YORK (Reuters) - The United States, Canada and Mexico

should establish a common security perimeter to guard

against terrorism in North America, a tri-national

independent task force said in a report released on

Tuesday.

 

The countries should police their borders together to help

border trade, allow easier movement of citizens and to

keep out potential security threats, the task force said

at New York's Council on Foreign Relations.

 

‘If our two borders, the one between Canada and the United

States and the U.S. and Mexico, became a frontline for

security the impact that would have on normal relations

and economic relations would be profound,’ said

co-chairman John Manley, a former Canadian deputy prime

minister and minister of finance."

 

From All American Patriots News:

 

"May 17, 2005--North America is vulnerable on several

fronts: the region faces terrorist and criminal security

threats, increased economic competition from abroad, and

uneven economic development at home. In response to these

challenges, a tri-national, Independent Task Force on the

Future of North America has developed a roadmap to promote

North American security and advance the well- being of

citizens of all three countries.

 

Pointing to increased competition from the European Union

and rising economic powers such as India and China in the

eleven years since NAFTA took effect, co-chair Pedro C.

Aspe, former Finance Minister of Mexico, said, ‘We need a

vision for North America to address the new challenges.’

The Task Force establishes a blueprint for a powerhouse

North American trading area that allows for the seamless

movement of goods, increased labor mobility, and energy

security.

 

John P. Manley, Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister and

Minister of Finance said, ‘We are asking the leaders of

the United States, Mexico, and Canada to be bold and adopt

a vision of the future that is bigger than, and beyond,

the immediate problems of the present,’ ‘They could be the

architects of a new community of North America, not mere

custodians of the status quo.’" (My underlining.)

 

In other words, forget Canada; forget the United States of

America; forget the United States of Mexico. Sounds rather

treasonous to me!!

 

Let us be very clear here. What the task force addresses

is an economic/legal system in their interest with a

police state to enforce it.

 

This task force is extrapolating  the globalization

process into a North American unit. Under the mantle of

the WTO (an agreement in its own right,) there is in

process a  transformation of the forces of power in the

world from sovereign national control of resources over to

the global corporate control. It is what they call

"deregulation" and"privatization".  That is why they

called all the agreements "Free Trade".  They meant free

from regulations and controls that protect consumers and

the public generally, including protections from theft of

the commons.

 

Now the intent is for transfer from global corporate

control to regional corporate control, e.g., European

Union,  North American Union; that is, corporate political

control free from government accountability to electors. The North American task force seeks to create a unit even

freer from the vestigial citizen involvement that exists

in the E.U. (Britain and Australia are  lackeys of the

United States.)

 

The  FTA, the NAFTA, are well known. The Canadian Action

Party and other concerned Canadians  have been detailing

the harm of these agreements for years. CAP has steadfastly called for the abrogation of the FTA and

NAFTA. We have always said," Issue the 6 month notice to

abrogate!" The most recent justification for abrogation is the U.S.’s refusal to pay back $5 billion  they owe our

lumber industry for illegal duties the U.S. charged.

 

Despite years of proof of uneven and unfair use by the USA

of the rules of the FTA and NAFTA, including  the unfair

closing of the U.S side of the border to Canadian beef,

the Liberals, Conservatives, the NDP, and the Bloc

Quebecois have refused to call for abrogation.  It is only

in the face of the clarity of this latest U.S. abuse of Canada that all of them are  beginning to pretend they are

not wimps or complicit dupes. Still, none of them is

willing to  say, "Abrogate, period!" How much longer are

we willing to tolerate these politicians who not only

meekly submit to being stomped on, but then turn to their

attacker and apologize for being victimized?

 

Why do they do this? It is because all of their most

influential leaders are members of this elite group who

seek to remove democracy and entrench plutocracy. It is

not a question of what is good for the citizens of Canada,

U.S.A or Mexico. Note that the United States is turning

that $5 billion which has been stolen from the Canadian

lumber industry over to their own lumber barons, not their

general body of citizens.

 

This North American Impetus is a natural political

extension and outgrowth of all these global economic

arrangements as the greedy financial elite look around for

the best ways to effect their goals. It has everything to

do with the destruction of democracy and the death of freedom. These corporate bodies have  no allegiance to the

nation they happen to operate in, or to its people.

 

Other harmful international agreements include the General

Agreement on Trade and Services, (GATS), the Financial

Services Investment Agreement, (FSIA), the Free Trade Area

of the Americas, (FTAA), the Central American Free Trade

Agreement, (CAFTA). All of these grow out of the World

Trade Organization, (WTO), itself being an agreement that

commands an ongoing deregulation and privatization

process.

 

The eventual goal is to have all of North and South

America as one regional power block stronger than anything

in Europe or Asia. Fortunately for human beings, South

America has not been the easy pushover that the

corporations presumed, so they have to settle for  a North

American Union for now. (Why do you think Pat Robertson, a

U.S. religious leader, on national U.S. media, and on

Canada’s C.B.C., recently called for the Assassination of

Hugo Chavez, the Leader of Venezuela?)

 

 

There exists a North America Bureau of the Department of

Foreign Affairs and International Trade.

See: http://www.dfait-maeci.gc.ca/can-am/main/front_page/north_american_bureau-en.asp

 

The role of the North America Bureau is twofold:

 

    * to advance, in cooperation with other parts of the

    Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade,

    Canadian diplomatic missions in the United States and

    Mexico, and other Canadian Government departments and

    agencies, Canada's wide-ranging interests in its relations

    with the United States and Mexico; and

        * to promote Canada's broad foreign policy objectives

    within and through the Canada-US and the Canada-Mexico

    bilateral relationships.

 

In fulfilling this role, the Bureau is organized into four

divisions:

 

    * the United States Relations Division,

    * the United States Transboundary Division, and

    * the United States Business Development Division and

    * The Mexico Division

 

 

2.  Let’s now look at the second body, The Binational

Military Planning Group. (Source Michel Chossudovsky.   http://www.globalresearch.ca

http://www.globalresearch.ca/articles/CH0411C.html

 

Chossudovsky says the people of NORAD and the Binational

Planning Group are the same .  They operate the same

command. NORAD has essentially been scrapped. It has been

integrated into US Northern Command,  and Canada has

become a de facto member of NORTHCOM under the auspices of

the Bi-national Planning Group. (BPG).

 

So, when Prime Minister Paul Martin said "no" to Star

Wars, he did  not really say no. He lied to us.

 

The Binational Planning Group was set up in late 2002

after Prime Minster Chrétien refused to join NORTHCOM. The

creation of Northcom had been  announced unilaterally in

April 2002 by Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfield who

dictated that the US Northern Command would have

jurisdiction over the entire North American region. Canada and  Mexico were presented with a fait accompli. US

Northern Command’s jurisdiction set out in the US DoD

includes the continental US ,all of Canada, Mexico,

portions of the Caribbean, contiguous waters in the

Atlantic and Pacific oceans up to 500 miles off the

Mexican, US and Canadian coastlines, as well as the

Canadian arctic.

 

Northcom was being quietly negotiated with Ottawa’s

Department of Defence and the PMO.  Under NORTHCOM  the US

military will cross the border and deploy troops  anywhere

in Canada, in our provinces as well as station American

warships in Canadian territorial waters.  The locale for

these discussions is not in Canada, but at the Peterson

Air Force base in Colorado, the headquarters of the US

Northern Command(Northcom) .

 

Chossudovsky reports that Rumsfeld is said to have boasted

that "the NORTHCOM with all of North America as its

geographic command ‘is part of the greatest transformation

of the Unified Command Plan (UCP) since its inceptions in

1947'"

 

When PM Chretien refused to sign on the dotted line,

Rumsfield et al, the military establishment, both US and

Canadian, refused to take no for an answer.  They

immediately created a new name to accommodate the concept

of NORTHCOM and called it  the Binational Planning group .

It is still operating out of the Peterson Air force base.

It was supposed to last only for two years but its

mandate has been renewed to spring of 2006.  (Note- look

for a Canadian  election before the expiry date.

 

The BPG has a staff  of 50 US and Canadian military

planners laying the groundwork fo the integration of

Canada -US military command structures.  The BPG works in

close coordination with the Canada-US Military Cooperation

Committee at the Pentagon- responsible for detailed joint

military planning.

 

Respecting missile defence, Martin told the press on February 22,2005: "[The Americans] were told we will not

participate." "It is a firm 'no.'"

 

Chossudovsky reminds us that simultaneously, Frank McKenna

ambassador designate to the US, in a contradictory

statement,  told the media " Canada's participation in the

controversial BMD is a "done deal". It's de facto. It was

part of a negotiation process initiated two years ago.

 

"We're part of it now and the question is what more do we

need?" said McKenna. "There's no doubt, in looking back,

... that the NORAD amendment has given, has created part,

in fact a great deal, of what the United States means in

terms of being able to get the input for defensive

weaponry."

 

What Ambassador McKenna was hinting at, without revealing

the substance of US-Canada  negotiations (behind closed

doors), is that NORAD is a defunct military body.

 

So the military side of this treason is waiting for

government sanction in the spring of 2006 after our next

election. Once again the arrogant confidence is at least

irritating if not alarming.

 

Even though there is no official sanction yet, de facto

sanctions exist as Canada  is participating more and more in the US wars.. Now we have more troops in Afghanistan,

and General Hilliard is warning Canadians to be prepared

for  the body bags  returning to Canada. There is

something really wrong with this picture.

 

In a comprehensive report prepared shortly before the

Bush-Martin talks November 2004, the BPG made

recommendations on: " how the two countries' militaries

can work together more effectively to counter these

[terrorist] threats. ... formalizing cooperation already

taking place on an informal basis." (Statement of BPG

spokesman, US Department of Defence Information, November

3, 2004)

 

With regard to military negotiations, McKenna knows what

is happening behind the scenes. He was on the board of

directors of the Carlyle Group together with Bush Senior

and Frank Carlucci (The bin Laden family were investors in

Carlyle until 9/11).

 

Carlyle, is the leading private equity investor in the

aerospace and defence industries in the US and Canada. It

plays a key role in the formulation of US defence and

foreign policy. It has a vested interest in Canada's

integration into NORTHCOM.

 

Michel Chossusdovsky points out that "Canada’s

participation in the Bilateral Planning Group and hence

the Northern Command implies Canada's acceptance not  only

of Star Wars, but of the entire US war agenda, requiring

significant  hikes in Canada's defence spending. The

latter are intended to fuel the  military-industrial

complex. Canada's defence contractors are supportive of

this process."

 

Chossudovsky points to  Canada's February 2005 budget,

released on the day following P.M. Paul Martin's

categorical "No" to the Missile Defence Program.

Chossudovsky notes that "an additional $12.8 billion

dollars (Cdn) (over the next five years), has added to

Canada's spiralling defence budget. The stated objective

is to ‘burnish the country's credibility as a global

peacekeeping partner’."

 

Chossudovsky notes further that the budget  is not meant

to refurbish the country's conventional military hardware,

but rather will be channelled to Canadian weapons

producers, many of which are affiliates of US defence

conglomerates, upon Canada's accession to NORTHCOM.. He

lists some major players in Canada's defence industry:

General Dynamics (Canada), Bell Helicopter Textron

(Canada), General Motors Defense, CAE Inc, Bombardier,

SNC-Lavalin Group, etc.

 

 

So we can see that those two bodies, the trilateral task

force and the Bilateral Planning group,  are well

entrenched in process.

 

The fact is that most Canadians oppose this deep economic

and military integration.

 

Now the greedy corporations are  staking out a claim on

more and more land in a region of North America  in order

to be bigger, and better and more profitable  than a group

of corporations from another regional block. The European

Union was the first block. There is a rising Asian block.

I am not the first to see the USA attacks on  the middle

east as a means of preventing the Asian blocks from

becoming the most  powerful . The third region is the

Americas. South America has not been an easy go for the

globalizers. So the focus is  concentrating for now on

North America.)

 

By examination  of the arrangements and deals happening

under our noses but by stealth, we can see that our

worries expressed over the years are coming to fruition.

The globalizers are well  into the  process of

implementing a clear regime run by them, about them, for

them, and enforced by governments. The masses of people do

not count except as cannon  fodder in the wars of conquest

and as  slaves for  the production process .

 

There  is every  intention  of regime change from

democracy to tyranny. Our governments are already the

willing whipping boys being the instruments of social

control. They have no shame in removing our civil

liberties and destroying our constitutional protections

.This is happening all around the world with the USA,

Britain, Australia and Canada being the most advanced in

the regime change process. It is an outrage and a disgrace

that Canada is now competing with Britain to become the

lowliest lick spittle groveling agent  to the USA led

regime change process. There is nothing good in this

regime change process for the citizen.
