OTTAWA — President Bush's two-day summit with the leaders of Canada and Mexico, beginning today in nearby Montebello, is raising fears among some conservatives that the three governments are planning a European Union-style super-government.
Concerns about such an agreement and where it could lead started on Web sites and among talk-radio hosts, picked up by CNN commentator Lou Dobbs and gained traction among some of the House Republicans who successfully derailed Mr. Bush's immigration-reform plan, which critics described as an amnesty for the millions of illegal aliens in the United States.
"We want you to be aware of serious and growing concerns in the U.S. Congress about the so-called Security and Prosperity Partnership you launched with these nations in 2005," 21 Republican members of Congress, along with one Democrat, said in a letter to President Bush.
The House has adopted an amendment barring U.S. transportation officials from participating in future meetings of the partnership.
The White House dismissed suspicions of a coming North American Union as a "silly" conspiracy theory. "Americans are going to remain Americans, Canadians are going to remain Canadians and Mexicans are going to remain Mexicans," a senior Bush administration official said on the condition of anonymity.
But the fight over immigration policy, in which some conservatives accused Mr. Bush of siding with multinational business interests to adopt policies undermining U.S. sovereignty, has aggravated fears about cross-border cooperation with Mexico.
"A couple of events I've done this week, this question did come up about the issue of open borders, and how much is this country doing to cut these arrangements with Canada and Mexico to basically give free access in and out of this country," said Rep. Walter B. Jones, North Carolina Republican, who signed the letter of concern.

People are starting to pay attention. Read more on Critical Mass. I posted several links that document the SPP through FOIA requests.
Our dollars will be replaced with “Amero’s”.
Rumor has it, pallets of the new currency has already been produced.
Is the President stating he hasn't heard of the FTAA? If so, it's going to confirm what a lot of folks thought about him. He doesn't know much about what's happening in and out of his own nation.
Actually, this sortof confirms a theory of mine. Instead of calling it an FTAA, they seem to be searching for other ways to join our nations, like security agreements. Over time the same thing will happen, but they can do it on the sly. FTAA? Why we wouldn't do that.
"BTW, we do have summit planned for early next year concerning unification of laws for the nations from Canada to Peru." LOL
OK what’s GW up to now? Maybe the three amigo’s are planning where to put the Denny’s Restaurants on their new Super Highway !!!
That's fine, except they keep forgetting the "and out of" part of the equation.
The current European Union essentially started as a free-trade and economic cooperation treaty known as the European Economic Community.
LOL!
“cut these arrangements with Canada and Mexico to basically give free access in and out of this country”
to whom, the Canadians and Mexicans? Americans must have passports.
I don’t know whom Bush thinks he’s fooling,by saying he trying to streghten ties with them..we all know it’s the North American Union..
Like NAFTA... I agree.
It seems as if this is drawing closer to a case of Treason. Someone may soon "swing." Will it be those supporting the North American Union or those defending the United States. Whichever, this revolution is fast breaking into the open.
Jerome R. Corsi addresses the U.S. government’s efforts to create a North American Union with Mexico and Canada, will be discussing the issue on the Laura Ingraham Show today.
He’s scheduled to be on Ingraham’s show on Talk Radio Network starting at 11:15 a.m. Eastern Time today
Nothing like a little Monday morning comedy.
If Hillary comes to power and we form this super state we could call it the, “Union of American Socialist Republics”
I’ll guess that folks will have trouble keeping the 1 Amero and 2 Amero coins apart. LOL
Tired of defending Bill Clinton’s international kangaroo court and ICANN?
