CFR's Plan to Integrate the U.S., Mexico and Canada
eagleforum.org ^ | July 13, 2005 | Phyllis Schlafly

Posted on 07/16/2005 5:16:18 PM PDT by servingchrist

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.

I'll never forget Bush Daddy's words about the new Global Order. Yep, I voted for GW but it was either him or Kerry.

Well I am glad now it is out in the open. If I had stood up and ranted about the Bush elitist dynasty, every Bush-bot on FR would have been all over me...well let's hear from them now. Simply put, the Bush dynasty (et al) want to completely reshape the American continent, basically destroying American borders, soverignty, and all that goes along with it, TO SAY NOTHING OF OPENING UP AMERICAN TO EVERY TERRORIST IN THE WORLD.

This is beyond serious -- it is madness.

I would suspect that most rational people have come to accept this reality. Well stated.

when telling them no to CAFTA, you might want to mention NO TO CFR as well. (of course you will probably have to explain to the person that answers the phone what CFR is!)

I sent our two Senators and our Representative a copy of Phyllis Schlafly's explanation of the CFR plan and asked them to please send us a reponse, and that we wanted to know if they were for it or not.

This is scary stuff. Answers the question as to why no border protection. Our elected leaders once again need to hear us loud and clear. I hope it is not too late.

Bush is surrounded with CFR minions. That does not bode well for America.

Bush IS CFR, like his daddy, Cheney, Rummy, and most of the Congress critters are. They are a wealthy, 'elite' group of people who think they know what's best for us 'common folk.' Bush is a globalist just like his daddy is. They swore an oath to the UN.

You would be amazed at who all is in the CFR. Many of the MSM media belong, and lots of other people who are wealthy. Many organization and churches belong. The final plan is for 2 classes of people in the world. The wealthy elite, and the rest of us. That's why Hillary talks about having to take from us to give to the poor for the common good of man kind. They don't plan to use their money. It will be our money, property, etc.
