  • North American Woes

    A couple of entries ago, I linked to an article
    about how powerful
    North American people are secretly and undemocratically arranging to
    eliminate Canada’s remaining sovereignty and self-determination and to
    give its assets to the United States, effectively
    ending Canada’s period as a country. Both Americans and Canadians should be
    deeply concerned about what is going on.

    A friend of mine has written further on this subject,
    explaining why Canadians must never think that this would result in our
    becoming “the 51st state.” That would have many more official
    repercussions than the stealthy sellout which is in fact taking place. Canada will not gain any status by these dealings.

    Here’s another article about it,
    from the same source as the one I posted earlier. There is more and
    more out there about this process. The people who are doing it are less
    secretive about it lately, and are representing it as just a boring
    business thing that nobody should take time out from their busy TV
    schedule to think about. What shall we do about this? We have a right
    to
    object and to prevent these initiatives from going forward outside our
    established democratic institutions, which are in place so that our
    elected representatives will act according to the will of the people.
    We need political leadership that will help us to expose
    these practices for the treasonous theft they really are, end them, and
    effectively prevent them from happening
    in the future.

    We live in truly shocking times. Where are the leaders who will work for us?

    Next time you read an article about how a bunch of unruly protesters
    were abused and arrested outside a conference with an innocuous name
    like “Atlantica,” consider: what could be making people feel that they
    must take up placards and risk life and livelihood like that? Why does
    the media highlight violent protest (about which most people
    disapprove) and seldom explain why the protesters are so concerned? Maybe protesters are doing what’s needful.
    Maybe we should all be doing this work before there’s nothing left for
    us to protest about.

  • Because Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands don’t want to be states either? Ah, the arrogance of it all. Time to get a PM with balls and us to get rid of the Texas Turkey.

  • Hey Lovely Lady.

    It is good to see you again.

    I hope all is well in your neck of the world.

  • I tried to read the Tyee article (the first one and it’s corresponding links and then I tried to dig into the links provided there). I wanted to find a foothold to grab onto so that I could understand better what is going on. But it is difficult for me to get past the public relations rhetoric on the SPP site and the faster paced rhetoric on the Tyee site

    In other words, I feel bad but I cannot make any sense of it just now. Sadly, the only catch phrases that are coming out of it are so hyperbolic as to be odd. I do want to look into it further though. These things are often clarion calls and two years down the line it’s a too late affair. Although, with what little I understand I get the sense that it may be already. Not that Canada is being assimilated away, but that plans are already underway for something.

    I must read further! Thank you very much for providing the information!

  • Don’t think its just Canada and its not leaders of the U.S., there are a powerful group of people that would like a one world goverment.

    RYC: it wasn’t our church and it was very casual there, some of those folks would be dressed down to work in my dungeon.

  • I’m not informed enough on the issue to even have an opinion. I just wanted to thank you for your visit and your comment.

  • there are many reasons that because of business ties (NAFTA, Trans national highway) that it could happen but you still have time…

  • Wow, this was news to me! Scary. ryc: You were lucky to see Yes twice, bet they were both a lot of fun. Thanks for stopping by! Love to you.

  • It was so good to hear from you!

    Like Leonidas, NAFTA came to my mind immediately, and other reasons.  I don’t have an in-depth understanding this, but I will be listening to anything about it I hear.

  • I think it is important that Canada and the USA remember how it used to be and that it can be that way again.  I would have to be very suspicious of any sudden political change, everything we value is at stake.

  • Ack. Haven’t heard about this!

  • I had no clue anything like this was going on.  Crazy.
