Bill paves way for Canada's 'disappearance' (integration with U.S. and Mexico)
World Net Daily ^ | June 23, 2007

Lawmakers in Canada appear to be paving the way for "deep integration" with the U.S. and Mexico with a proposed measure that advances the controversial Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America promoted by the Bush administration, notes WND columnist Jerome Corsi.

It's an issue Corsi has fully investigated for his newest book, "The Late Great USA."

The conservative minority government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper is pressing for "The Trade, Investment and Labour Mobility Agreement", which would enable a Canadian company to challenge laws in provinces that block the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Murray Dobbin, a Vancouver author and journalist critical of SPP, argued in an article titled, "The Plan to Disappear Canada – 'Deep Integration' comes out of the shadows," the secretive trilateral bureaucratic working groups organized under the auspices of SPP are "harmonizing" virtually every important area of public policy with the U.S., including "defense, foreign policy, energy (they get security, we get greenhouse gases), culture, social policy, tax policy, drug testing and safety and much more."

The proposed legislation would allow companies that believe provincial laws and regulations harm their NAFTA rights to demand up to $5 million in compensatory damages for each violation.

When fully implemented, Dobbin argues, "TILMA would allow challenges to the location and size of commercial signs, environmental set-backs for developers, zoning, building height restrictions, pesticide bans, and green space requirements in urban areas. It also would allow challenges to restrictions on private health clinics, halt stricter rules for nursing homes and almost certainly overturn the current ban on junk food in British Columbia schools."

The controversy over SPP broke into the mainstream in Canada last month when Tory Member of Parliament Leon Benoit walked out of a House of Commons International Trade Committee hearing in protest to a leftist professor who wanted to air his objections to "deep integration" with the U.S.

The professor, Gordon Laxer of the University of Alberta, was about to explain to the committee his theory that SPP involves a U.S. grab of Canada's energy resources when Benoit adjourned the meeting and bolted out of the room, preventing the Canadian mainstream press from hearing and reporting the professor's arguments.

Laxer, nevertheless, published his testimony in the nationally read Globe and Mail newspaper.

Laxar has objected to the closed-door meeting roundtables of Canadian business and corporate elite held in Calgary by the Washington-based think tank the Center for Strategic and International Studies, or CSIS, as part of its "North American Future 2025 Project."

WND previously reported two activist groups, the Council of Canadians and the Coalition for Water Aid, are protesting that the CSIS research project involves a massive grab by the U.S. of Canadian fresh water, estimated to be one-fifth of the world's supply.

WND also has reported the CSIS, chaired by former Sen. Sam Nunn and guided by trustees including Richard Armitage, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Harold Brown, William Cohen and Henry Kissinger, is planning to present its "North American Future 2025" final report to the governments of Mexico, Canada and the U.S. by Sept. 30. The report is expected to recommend the benefits of integrating the U.S., Mexico and Canada into one political economic and security bloc.

Canadian activists are preparing to protest the third summit meeting of the SPP, scheduled for Aug. 20 and 21 in Montebello, Quebec.

Corsi’s on record as saying Bush has a secret plan to create the NAU by 2010, or just after his next book, whichever comes first.

His globalist/NAU agenda is being put together by him AND other globalists, who WON’T be out of office.

The Rockefellers?

I recall giving you dozens of links, rudeboy, two years ago. You wouldn’t read ANY of the documents I posted to you, NOT from Corsi....they were from government websites, and other websites, containing official documents.

At that time, you refused....and you think YOUR PERSONAL OPINION should be what I believe?

Your personal opinions carry the weight they deserve: nada.

I’ve read many many many documents, NOT Corsi....coming out of the White House, governmental legislation, Canada, AND Mexico....along with articles, including those by Corsi. They all add up to much more than what your personal opinions could ever tell anyone.

See what I mean? Just what, exactly, is the globalist/NAU agenda for dealing with Avian flu? I know the SPP has discussed it . . . why should I be alarmed that they have?

Pointing to the SPP's website doesn't prove conspiracy. You have a serious problem with the concept of burden of proof.

see my post #43. I you want me to repost the DOZENS upon dozens of links I’ve already posted to you and, AND YOU READ the documents, I’ll do that.

But, I’m not wasting my time with someone who WON’T even READ what they’re arguing about.

you’re the one who’s “pointing to the SPP”.

I’ve already said, there’s dozens of documents, bills, and other articles on this.

You won’t read them....that’s YOUR serious problem, not mine.

Let’s try this mathetically. You wish to prove that 2 + 2 equals something other than 4. Fine. You cannot point to material that states 2 + 2 equals 4 and call it proof.

Will you, or will you not, read ALL the documents that I’ve previously posted to you, two years ago?

I’ll repost them. If you care to “discuss” this afterwards, fine....if not....your PERSONAL OPINIONS are just that...and mean absolutely NADA.

I assure you, I've read nearly everything is out there. Because when Corsi says it, I have to check to see how far off-the-mark it is.

So quit your pathetic "you just won't read it" BS. It's amateur sophistry.

Go ahead. Post it. I'll read it, AGAIN.

I should warn you, I'll expect you to actually make an argument, not simply dump documents on my lap and say, "the information is in there, find it yourself."

It is pathetic...you refused to last time I posted them, yet you had the same "arguments" then, when you were still refusing to inform yourself.

Reading the SPP, or Corsi's articles, by themselves, without reading the other documents, is not informing yourself. It's pathetic that you think I should place any weight on someone's personal uninformed opinions.

So in other words, you don't have to make an argument because you claim your opponent refuses to read the argument you've made in the past. Cute.

It's like pressing the rhetorical Easy Button.

Let me ask you this: do you consider the “article” at the top of this thread “proof,” and do you plan to cite to it as “proof” in the future? I think I’ve discovered your problem. You think citing to someone who hasn’t done their homework completes your homework.

No, it’s like all you bring up is Corsi.

I didn’t. I mentioned that ALL the threads on the NAU are always moved to chat.....you all started in with the “Corsi” smears, once again.

If you can’t argue soundly, that’s the Clinton way....smear.

I think when someone is repeated what I, myself, have seen in articles, read in legislation, read what’s in Mexican government documents, Canadian documents, along with a vast array of other articles which are adding onto that information because of the FOIA act.....I’m saying there’s the ability to understand and comprehend whether or not an article is in or out of context.

How can you do that if you don’t reading anything but articles?

Observing that Corsi disguises circumstantial evidence as dispositive evidence is not a smear. Calling him a charlatan is. I do both.

I suspect that once someone finds some evidence, then it will be news. Big news. [chuckle]
