"This "spew" originated in the White House."

If true, just one more reason why Bush et.al. should't have stopped at cleansing the left-leaning, socialist/moderate wussies from his proxcimity like Trent **IDIOT** Lott.

"The administration wants a continental security zone which would provide increased security?? because continental screening standards would be set. That would allow the continuance of the easy movement of people and goods across the border.

The terms you used that I emphasized in bold contridict each other. You can't have both. Thank you NAFTA. You only have to look at our southern boarder for a glairing example of the contridiction of your statement. And "continental screening standards"??? What kind of "fool the dummie" phrase is that? Many socialist leaning Canadians like our money. How about reciprocating just a tad with revision of your insaine immagration policy. Canada practically rolls out the red carpet for terrorists. I know even our INS sucks and blows but how about bringing Canada up to their pathetic standards for starters.

But let's leave out of the discussion these nebulious, globalist terms like "continental screening standards" as it is far simpler for 2 or more soverign nations, sharing the same interior boarders to accept the same immigration "manual" related to their perimiter, thus not having to monkey around fiddleing with common boarders, while at the same time enhancing their security and permiting no watering down of soverignty.

The only reason I can think of why WE would have to come up with the hairbrained idea is because of what they know to exist politically in Canada. We cannot count on the policy makers in Canada to do anything tangible concerning our security at this time.

"It is the Canadian Left that is resisting this idea because it percieves it to be detrimental to Canadian sovereignty."

I may not precieve accuratly the term "Left" as it applies to Canada. I don't see how a socialist/globalist/leftist would give a rats butt about soverignty. Here in the US we have a interesting example of "strange bed fellows", but only to the unlearned.

The Socialist/Globalist/Marxist left protestors are in "agreement" with the Conservative/Anti-Globalist/Constitutional right, fighting economic Globalization. But not because of it's delitirious affect on soverignty. It is entirely because they are Anti-Capitolist, and those they oppose are the current "Capitolist" controllers. They prefer THEM to be at the helm of Globalization and Global Socialism. They are all for disolusionment of soverignty and national boarders.

Here in the US we have our own problem with ignorant, moderate, left-leaning Republicans that are selling us out because of their stupidity. All they are doing is mucking up the works with their lame ideas. They are doing more to damage our relationship with our northern neighbors, than fixing anything.

Canada should be broken up and Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchwan(sic), the Yukon and Northwest Territories should be admitted to the Union.

We might have to wait to attack until we finish our war in Iraq.
