CFR's Plan to Integrate the U.S., Mexico and Canada by Phyllis Schlafly, July 13, 2005
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) has just let the cat out of the bag about what's really behind our trade agreements and security partnerships with the other North American countries. A 59-page CFR document spells out a five-year plan for the "establishment by 2010 of a North American economic and security community" with a common "outer security perimeter."
"Community" means integrating the United States with the corruption, socialism, poverty and population of Mexico and Canada. "Common perimeter" means wide-open U.S. borders between the U.S., Mexico and Canada. "Community" is sometimes called "space" but the CFR goal is clear: "a common economic space ... for all people in the region, a space in which trade, capital, and people flow freely." The CFR's "integrated" strategy calls for "a more open border for the movement of goods and people."
The CFR document lays "the groundwork for the freer flow of people within North America." The "common security perimeter" will require us to "harmonize visa and asylum regulations" with Mexico and Canada, "harmonize entry screening," and "fully share data about the exit and entry of foreign nationals."
This CFR document, called "Building a North American Community," asserts that George W. Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox, and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin "committed their governments" to this goal when they met at Bush's ranch and at Waco, Texas on March 23, 2005. The three adopted the "Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America" and assigned "working groups" to fill in the details. It was at this same meeting, grandly called the North American summit, that President Bush pinned the epithet "vigilantes" on the volunteers guarding our border in Arizona.
A follow-up meeting was held in Ottawa on June 27, where the U.S. representative, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, told a news conference that "we want to facilitate the flow of traffic across our borders." The White House issued a statement that the Ottawa report "represents an important first step in achieving the goals of the Security and Prosperity Partnership."
The CFR document calls for creating a "North American preference" so that employers can recruit low-paid workers from anywhere in North America. No longer will illegal aliens have to be smuggled across the border; employers can openly recruit foreigners willing to work for a fraction of U.S. wages.
Just to make sure that bringing cheap labor from Mexico is an essential part of the plan, the CFR document calls for "a seamless North American market" and for "the extension of full labor mobility to Mexico."
The document's frequent references to "security" are just a cover for the real objectives. The document's "security cooperation" includes the registration of ballistics and explosives, while Canada specifically refused to cooperate with our Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI).
To no one's surprise, the CFR plan calls for massive U.S. foreign aid to the other countries. The burden on the U.S. taxpayers will include so-called "multilateral development" from the World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank, "long-term loans in pesos," and a North American Investment Fund to send U.S. private capital to Mexico.
The experience of the European Union and the World Trade Organization makes it clear that a common market requires a court system, so the CFR document calls for "a permanent tribunal for North American dispute resolution." Get ready for decisions from non-American judges who make up their rules ad hoc and probably hate the United States anyway.
The CFR document calls for allowing Mexican trucks "unlimited access" to the United States, including the hauling of local loads between U.S. cities. The CFR document calls for adopting a "tested once" principle for pharmaceuticals, by which a product tested in Mexico will automatically be considered to have met U.S. standards.
The CFR document demands that we implement "the Social Security Totalization Agreement negotiated between the United States and Mexico." That's code language for putting illegal aliens into the U.S. Social Security system, which is bound to bankrupt the system.
Here's another handout included in the plan. U.S. taxpayers are supposed to create a major fund to finance 60,000 Mexican students to study in U.S. colleges.
To ensure that the U.S. government carries out this plan so that it is "achievable" within five years, the CFR calls for supervision by a North American Advisory Council of "eminent persons from outside government . . . along the lines of the Bilderberg" conferences.
The best known Americans who participated in the CFR Task Force that wrote this document are former Massachusetts Governor William Weld and Bill Clinton's immigration chief Doris Meissner. Another participant, American University Professor Robert Pastor, presented the CFR plan at a friendly hearing of Senator Richard Lugar's Foreign Relations Committee on June 9.
Ask your Senators and Representatives which side they are on: the CFR's integrated North American Community or U.S. sovereignty guarded by our own borders.

...If [CFR type] they think they have a chance in hell of taking away our guns without suffering the consequences individually, their delusions would be dashed in short order."
It is only the 2nd Amendment standing squarely in the way of Globalism that will prevent this 'North American Community'from dismantling the U.S. Constitution in leiu of it's own.
Gonna be a very interesting next twenty-five years as elitist so-called "leaders" of both Parties further shred and undermine the Constitution and with it -- U.S. sovereignty -- as they usher in (drumroll please)-- their New World Order.
Lol, well put...
Exactly! It's only going to get worse.
You need to see what's happening in EU with regards to the oppostion the new constitution that was turned down by French and Netherland voters because they were informed enough to know that their national sovereignty was at risk if they approved the new EU version.
Also, I've read about numerous EU commissions that've been set up to supplant those from individual nations and in fact there was a good thread from 7/12 (Newsmax) "EU limits dietary supplements sales" that discussed how an EU court is trying to impose their rules on nations within the union regarding sales of vitamins, etc.
Then why do they still have their eye on my money?
BTTT
This is not new information to those who have done their homework and been paying attention.
It gets worse.
"The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government,
1. The act of invading; the act of encroaching upon the rights or possessions of another; encroachment; trespass.
No amount of tea party will overcome the tryannical globalists.
Scripture is clear that the evil world government will reign for 3.5-7 years.
Only Christ's overt triumphant return to defeat the enemy and his forces at Armageddon will deliver the earth from utter destruction.
I actually wrote "Rushbot" as in Limbaugh.
Tancredo has yet to attempt to be President so how can you write he has been kept out? There is a reason why the two party system is well defended by the status quo types and that is so whoever wins they have the blessings of the elite.
The CFR is anything but liberal, it is elite, it is of the rich and the influential, it is not of the average working class hero that has made America great.

Nicely and accurately summarized.
Perhaps our Washington crapweasels deserve another raise for doing such a great job protecting and defending American sovereignty...
Looks intersting. I just ordered a copy.
It's the age old problem of "too much democracy" - our Founding Fathers understood this - they were top tier, upper percentile thinkers. Democratic mob rule leads to people voting themselves maximal benes. Eventually, foreign influence gets involved and it's hogs to the feeding trough. Once things sink to that level either one of two things will happen - either a strong man rises up (the Caesardom model) or another great power comes in and conquers. My own bet is on the latter.
Sadly ... :(
