Canada ping!
A google search of the "East-West Maine Highway" got me one hit - a mention of the project in a report by New York State. I've observed this in Canadians - the dream, followed by... more dream. I think that prediliction is also what drives the anti-American talk, too. It's easy to hate the Americans, imaginative to wonder what greatness could have been achieved without the Americans on the doorstep... and then watch "The Simpsons" on Buffalo television and decide, after all, that the citizens of the United States are all right, sort of, although that Bush fella is really awful. This writer dreams of a powerful Canadian infrastructure connected to the United States, and yet one of the three projects barely gets a blip on google. Actually, that dreaming makes the country a charming place to visit - friendly people, clean streets, obviously and totally supported by the Americans next door.
Interdependence ping....
NAFTA CAFTA FTAA PING
What a load of globaloney.
This community crap is just a way to get around the Constitution by the domestic enemies of America.
Trilateral committees are way worse than the flea circus that congress is now. We occaisionally do get rid of the bozos in congress. We'll never even know the names of the people who will run our lives under this plan.
Close the damned borders and if and when Canada or Mexico can show they can hack it, and are willing to come in under OUR system and OUR Constitution, and PAY THEIR OWN WAY, then maybe we'll talk.
