North American Union



I believe that what we are experiencing currently with our failed economy is the inevitable convincing needed for public approval:

From msnbc:
"A runaway train of a sell-off turned the anniversary of the stock market peak into one of the darkest days in Wall Street history Thursday, driving the Dow Jones industrials down a breathtaking 679 points and deepening a financial crisis that has defied all efforts to stop it. Stocks lost more than 7 percent, $872 billion of investments evaporated, and the Dow fell to 8,579. When the average crashed through the 9,000 level for the first time in five years in the final hour of trading, sellers had only begun to hit the gas pedal.As bad as the day was, even worse was the cumulative effect of a historic run of declines: The Dow suffered a triple-digit loss for the sixth day in a row, a first, and the average dropped for the seventh day in a row, a losing streak not seen since 2002."


This financial crisis will lead our people, the people of the United Sates of America to agree, without revolution, in the North American Union. Am I the only one to remember how much republicans hate Mexicans? And now, Bush passes this open border policy? The "amero" the otherwise lamer name referring to the"euro" will be our new currency. And not only that! Our Declaration of Independence will be gone. Who are we kidding? It has been gone. With one Union comes one Bank - does that frighten anyone? I think we should think globally, but currency is corrupt today. Giving it more power over more people with indefinitely make us more of the slaves we are currently, TODAY. Now is a perfect time for our government to pull this kind of bullshit. American people, "Oh, no! Who am I going to vote for?" How many presidential debates will we watch on t.v. without seeing coverage on this very important subject?

This is what President George W. Bush had to say about the North American Union:

"Americans are going to remain Americans, Canadians are going to remain Canadians and Mexicans are going to remain Mexicans,"

What the fuck does that mean? Are you kidding, you asshole!? I am sick of these fucking statements that do not answer questions. They use nouns as if they were explanation enough of my rights!

What if on November 4th, no one voted? We have seen the popular vote does not count, but we ignored it. President George W. Bush has been accused of far worse things than a blow job and yet he has not been even threatened with impeachment. He wasn't even elected!!!!!!!!!! I wonder if not voting would show we have no faith in this supposed "government" that rules our society. I wonder if not voting would be a peaceful act in revolution. I am sending this post into the void of cyberspace, a desperate plea. Now's the time.

There won't be any "North American Union".

For all the accusations and conspiracy theories, no-one has produced any evidence that anyone in power in the US or Canada is interested in it.

Seriously. Try to find it. Track the stories back to their sources - even the guy on CSPAN admits that he got it from "several sites on the web". These sites, WorldNetDaily in particular, love to misrepresent the SPP as the NAU, and private citizen's ideas as government policy.

But even setting aside the burden of proof, why would Canada join it? If the US economy is collapsing, why would Canada tie itself to a sinking ship?

The news today is that Canadian banks are the soundest in the world, as ranked by the World Economic Forum:

The Canadian housing market is strong. It didn't have the institutionalized mortgate fraud that happenned in the states. Luxury home prices are down a bit, but then that crowd is busy buying up homes in the US at firesale prices.

Canada's jobless rate hit a 33-year low a few months ago.

Canada's biggest problem is collateral damage from the problems in the US: 80% of thier exports are to the US. With the US insisting on bankrupting itself, they have a problem.

Which is why Canada is signing free trade deals with OTHER countries left and right - four countries in Europe and one in South America this year alone.

Three days after the Canadian federal election, Canada will be negotiating a "massive integration" with the EU. The collapse of the Doha Round of WTO negotiations and the implosion of the US financial system has made it more urgent.

In any case, Canada CAN'T join any EU-style NAU, because North America isn't the same as Europe:

The EU has several major powers, and plenty of smaller ones that could team up. No one country can dominate the rest. North America on the other hand would be totally dominated by the US population and economy. So for Canada to join, it would require equal say in things like legal and monetary policy. This in turn would be unfair to Americans. It won't happen.

Since these theories appeared a few years ago, Canada REJECTED the "Common Security Perimeter" that the US wanted. The US put passport requirements and other major obstacles on the border for the first time EVER.

Combine that with the US economic collapse and Canada's moves to isolate itself from that collapse, and we're heading rapidly AWAY from any NAU.

A final thought: Even Canadian historians have said that if the US hadn't invaded in 1812, Canada would have joined the US through osmosis a few years later. Far from "welcoming the US as liberators" as expected, the invasion had the opposite effect. (Sounds familier...)

If the US economic collapse WAS part of a plan to absorb Canada, you gotta admire how history repeats itself.
