WELCOME TO USARNORTH
The new logo for the former US Army 5th, now US Army North.
As in North America(n) Union, no doubt!
I see this SPP thing as a RFP. We citizens are the shareholders. The corporation is putting out RFPs. No contract had better been signed! We just want to make sure the corporation does not go too far on this SPP proposal.
I am not going to buy a car without study and talking about it - why should any shareholder shut up about our concerns with SPP? And in my case, Mr. Pastor!
From comments made in 2002 before the Candian House of Commons.
What does Robert Pastor mean when he says he proposes "how to deepen North America"?
Well he learned from the European Union and "its nearly fifty years of experience what should be avoided as well as what could be adapted for North America."
Say what? "We also lack a vision of an inclusive identity that would inspire citizens of all three countries to think of themselves also as North Americans."
You got that straight! The government-created cesspool called Mexico ain't no American IMO.
The U.S. favors unilateralism, Canada and Mexico each deals with us bi-laterally, Dual-bilateralism. "This hurts the chance to create a true North American Community. 'Dual-bilateralism' is short-sighted and corrosive."
I like Dual-bilateralism.
But noooo, Create a North American Commission (NAC).
Create a North American Parliamentary Group, it's not a legislature but the "Parliamentary Group might raise the sensitivity of American Congressmen".
Like, stop our Congress from offending Mexicorruption by banning their borken down trucks from going like a bat out of hell driven by a $4/hr kid who hasn't slept in two days?
Next step, Permanent Court on Trade and Investment
Mexicorruption has gots to have money, need a North American Development Fund -- "Mexico needs $20 billion a year for ten years, just for infrastructure." That should about do it -- Oh! Don't forget them Social Security checks!
Oh! Transportation! We need transportaion.
Not to worry, it's covered. "new highway corridors on the Pacific Coast and into Mexico . . . the regulatory agencies should negotiate a plan that would permit mergers of the railroads and development of high-speed rail corridors."
Currency! What about currency.
"Mexicans and Canadians do not want to be incorporated into the United States, and they are ambivalent about adopting the American dollar, but they are more willing to become part of a single country of North America and of a unified currency, like the 'Amero'".
STOP!
Next RFP, please.
