America is finished.
Mexico and Canada are gone too.
In their place: One massive country, the North American Union (NAU), bordered by the Bering Sea to the north and Guatemala to the south, the Atlantic to the east and the Pacific to the west.
NAU citizens no longer spend dollars or salute Old Glory. They spend "ameros," and the flag that waves over its capitals shows the entire Western Hemisphere.
The national borders of the United States have been forever erased. While that scenario may sound far-fetched, critics of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) warn that future could be here sooner than anyone realizes.
President Bush, Mexican President Vincente Fox, and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin informally agreed to set up the SPP in 2005.
Not so well known is the fact that supporters of the NAU concept slipped an initiative into the recently defeated immigration reform act. Largely unnoticed amidst the amnesty furor that ultimately sunk the Immigration Bill was the statement, "It is the sense of Congress that the United States and Mexico should accelerate the implementation of the Partnership for Prosperity to help generate economic growth and improve the standard of living in Mexico."
The bill called for measures to boost the economy of Mexico, including:
# U.S. support for Mexico, to strengthen its education and training programs.
# A call for better health care for "poor and underserved" people in Mexico.
# And U.S. assistance to "establish a program with the private sector to cover the health care needs of Mexican nationals temporarily employed in the United States."
# The bill also called for U.S. assistance to Mexican businesses and government to eliminate corruption, which it termed, "the single biggest obstacle to development."
"This was the first attempt by the SPP to go public, and it failed," says Dr. Jerome Corsi, author of The Late Great USA. They thought nobody would notice. They were wrong."
Corsi called the sPP "a coup d-etat by bureaucratic means," adding that it works underhandedly like a shadow government.
"It is an attempt to turn North America into something like the European Economic Community," he says, "which began with economic cooperation and expanded eventually to include a common market, and then a full-scale regional government replacing, in many ways, the governing powers of the member nations."
Documents recently obtained by public interest group Judicial Watch reveal that "working groups" of the SPP are developing plans for U.S. taxpayer-funded initiatives to improve Mexico's infrastructure, within just six to 18 months.
SSP plans include:
# Creating a North American Pandemic Influenza Plan;
# Facilitating cross-border travel;
# Establishing Social Security totalization for Mexican aliens working in the United States;
# Creating a Trans-Texas Corridor superhighway with truck, car, and train lanes running from Mexico to Canada.
Following the 2005 tri-lateral summit, the three leaders agreed, "We will establish ministerial-led working groups that will consult with stakeholders in our respective countries. These working groups will respond to the priorities of our people and our businesses and will set specific, measurable, and achievable goals."
The working groups include committees on "Manufactured Goods and Sectoral and Regional Competitiveness, Movement of Goods, Energy, Environment, E-Commerce and Information Communications Technologies, Financial Services, Business Facilitation, Food and Agriculture, Transportation and Health," according to the SPP Web, www.spp.gov.
"Basically, the SPP eliminates borders," Dr. Corsi tells NewsMax. "Just as in Europe, once free-flowing cross-border travel and full economic cooperation are established, the next step will be multi-national regulations and multi-national court systems to resolve disputes, with powers that supercede those of U.S. courts in many cases."
Opponents of the NAU slipping its provisions into a bill sold as way to strengthen the integrity of the nation's borders reflects the determination of those pushing a North American union.
The SPP has struck back with a FAQ section on their U.S. website, www.spp.gov, which attempts to counter "myths" of its ultimate aims, stressing that the SPP "does not change our courts or legislative processes and respects the sovereignty of the United States, Mexico, and Canada. The SPP in no way, shape or form considers the creation of a European Union-like structure or a common currency."
As to charges that the SPP is being undertaken without the knowledge of the Congress, the FAQs state, "US agencies involved with SPP regularly update and consult with members of Congress on our efforts and plans." SPP confirms that the SPP is a "White House-driven initiative. In the United States, the Department of Commerce coordinates the ‘Prosperity' component, while the Department of Homeland Security coordinates the ‘Security' component. The Department of State ensures the two components are coordinated and are consistent with U.S. foreign policy."
"They deny it – of course they do, but the ultimate direction of all these actions is driven by a one-world view," Dr. Corsi says. Corsi contends that President Bush has a secret agenda to dissolve the United States of America into the North American Union.
"However, as more people in the United States are becoming aware of the goals of the SPP, grassroots opposition to the SPP is growing very fast."
One example: 12 states are currently considering resolutions opposing the establishment of the NAU.
There is a federal effort to block the SPP as well.
It is spearheaded by a resolution, HCR 40, which states, "The United States should not allow the Security and Prosperity Partnership to implement further regulations that would create a North American Union with Mexico and Canada; and the President should indicate strong opposition to these acts or any other proposals that threaten the sovereignty of the United States." The resolution also calls for the U.S. to not "engage in the construction of a North American Free Trade Agreement Superhighway System."
The resolution notes that "reports issued by the SPP indicate that it has implemented regulatory changes among the three countries that circumvent U.S. trade, transportation, homeland security and border security functions and that the SPP will continue to do so in the future."
The bill is sponsored by Rep. Virgil Goode, R-Va., who tells NewsMax, "I hope that more Americans will become aware of the Security and Prosperity Partnership, which will lead to a North American union and the destruction of the sovereignty of the United States."
Cong. Goode, who opposed the Immigration Bill saying it would be "a disaster to our nation if it were to become law," says his resolution has attracted over two dozen co-sponsors so far.
"Defeat of the Immigration Bill was a setback for the supporters of the SPP, but they won't just give up and go away," Corsi warns. "There is a huge amount of international capital driving this. They will not give up easily."
“...are all members of the CFR - they’re the ones behind the SPP and the NAU.”
Are we ignoring the “TriLateral Commission” (do a search) participation in this scheme? From what I’ve read on the topic, they are the primary designers.
Agreed the CFR has considerable input and leadership, but let us not allow the “TriLateral Commission” to escape their responsibility in all this.
The problem is that there is no significantly large group of voters in ANY of the three countries that is in favor of this solution.
IIRC, Ben Franklin at some point refers to the United States as the North America Union.
“We’re not afraid of globalization. It works to our benefit. We innovate more and invest in that innovation better than anywhere else in the world. Same thing goes for services. Free trade and market economies have done more for freedom and prosperity than a central planner could ever dream and we’re the world’s best example of that.”
F.Thompson, 2006
“It would not stand up in a court of law under equal application of the law.”
As I understand it, different courts, different laws, just like with European Union.
No question the North American Union was priority number one for George Bush when he took office. His oath of office had just about been said when he was down in Mehico formulating the plan with Vicente Fox. Ironically I think the 9\11 attack may have slowed down the NAU program somewhat !!!
Thanks for that quote
That cinches it for me....I’ll vote for Ron Paul
Damn
Voters?? We don't need no stinkin' voters!
Beware of the Stonecutters..
You may be missing the point-—we are not being asked to “join” Mexico-—we are being TOLD both that they are joining US, or WORSE, that we are “trading places”.
President Bush to Attend North American Leaders' Summit in Canada
"President Bush will travel to Montebello, Quebec, Canada to meet with Prime Minister Stephen Harper of Canada and President Felipe Calderon of Mexico at the North American Leaders' Summit on August 20-21, 2007. The leaders will review progress and continued cooperation under the Security and Prosperity Partnership, as well as discuss hemispheric and global issues."
It's a "North American Union" thread, common sense, logic and actual facts are irrelevant. Arguing with the Jerome Corsi/Whirled Nut Daily worshippers is like arguing with a Hare Krishna in an airport...
The idea that the US, Canada, and Mexico might actually make a good faith effort to cooperate in some areas where we agree is just an excuse to foam at the mouth.
It's easier to oppose the phantom "NAU" than deal with real problems like border control, Red China, Islamo-fascism, Democrat defeatism, a hopelessly broken and corrupt UN, activist courts, genocide, etc.
Its not phantom....and if you were to decide to have an open mind...I can send you a URL where I have put together considerable research on the NAU and the SPP.
The Illegal Immigration Bill recently defeated was not only a real attempt by NAU, thus Globalist oriented Leftist elitists, but ended up a test of the will of the American people.
We must note they have the advantage of knowledge of full perspective of the design created by TriLateral/CFR as it has been kept secret, and actually still is as it doesn’t operate at radar level.
I believe, as I have stated since Carter WH days we need to flush the Congressional bowl at least three consecutive election cycles until not one of those absorbed elitists in Government for Government remains. I believe it is the only way we can retain our Constitution, and our Nation.
We must also have a means test for any and all whom desire to campaign for a “Representative” position in our Government. We need determine the intent of the person. We also need those individuals upon gaining a passing grade to campaign to “Represent” us to take an oath of intent to remain true to the criterion of their campaign and the platform of the Party.
I don’t think America needs another actor, especially one who’s a member of the cfr. There is but one Ronald Reagan, and those goofballs who try to emulate him for political gain need to be rejected like flies. If our next President isn’t either Duncan Hunter or Tom Tancredo, then it doesn’t really make much difference to me who gets in. You’ve got alleged ‘conservatives’ like Giuliani who are radical lefties on domestic issues, and you’ve got a handful of front-runner Republicans who are globalists who believe our future lies in a ‘North American Union’. As other posters have said, Fred Thompson is a member of the CFR, so what does he have in mind for the US? I pray to God that Duncan Hunter is our next President, or Tancredo, but I really don’t see the tidal wave of globalism that is sweeping over the world abating anytime soon.
I think this idea of a “North American Union” peaked when I was in high school (early-mid 1990s). I remember discussing it often in my social studies classes.
If what I hear about Globalism and the Elites behind it....they have the media wrapped up...I don’t think the true conservatives like Tancredo, Hunter or Paul stand a chance....but I have to vote my conscience.
I just hope that more conservatives wake up to the reality of the NAU, SPP and possible NWO.
That, or they secretly support it. They can't very well come out and announce their support, they'd be outta here. Remember, we have our share of FROBL skulking around FR, why not NAU supporters as well?
