Media organization elites cover-up the biggest scandal in Canadian history
What would you think if it was announced that Canada was to cease as an independent country as early as 2007? Would it matter to you? Would you want to know who was responsible? What would you do?
Well, during the last week there have been announcements from at least two sources that Canada will soon cease to exist as a sovereign country.
The first notice I received was in the form of an Aug. 18 email from Connie Fogal, leader of the Canadian Action Party. The email includes a bulletin from the Fraser Institute entitled, “The Case for the Amero: The Institutions of a North American Monetary Union.” A statement near the end of the bulletin reads, “On the day the North American Monetary Union is created–perhaps on January 1, 2010–Canada, the United States, and Mexico will replace their national currencies with the Amero. On that day, all American dollar notes and coins will be exchanged at the rate of one US dollar for one Amero.”
Then much worst news came. On August 30 I received, indirectly from an email correspondent, an article from ‘Vivelecanada.ca’ entitled, “Timeline of the Progress Towards a North American Union”. At the end of the timeline it projected that the North American Union would be created in 2007, three years before the projection of the Fraser Institute!
You might ask how we got into a situation where our country would be dismantled without our consent. Well, from World Net Daily we read that “the White House has established working groups, under the North American Free Trade Agreement office in the Department of Commerce, to implement the Security and Prosperity Partnership (also called the North American Union) signed by President Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox and then Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin in Waco, Texas, March 23, 2005”. This was done without authorization of the U.S. Congress or any level of government in all three countries as far as I am able to ascertain.
Where is all this heading?
Stephen Harper shakes hands with Bush toward the role that Mr. Harper seeks toward his government’s sought “transfer” of Canada into the U.S. imperial political-military-industrial complex, under the smokescreen of a “War against Terrorism”.
We are heading into a One World neo-fascistic government and a One World economy where sovereign countries are being systematically destroyed. It’s >called the New World Order and it’s been in the works for decades. At the moment, George W. Bush is the figurehead leader in front of a neo-conservative (fascist) ruling elite which is the driving force behind the NOW agenda. It is an agenda by and for the ruling elites. The middle class, the only collective power that has the strength to fight back against this agenda, if they could ever unite in purpose, is being systematically destroyed. If the trend continues, the vast majority of workers will be driven down to the lowest level.
Don’t look to Prime Minister Stephen Harper to “Stand up for Canada” as the they indicated during the last federal election campaign; and fight against the take-over of Canada via a U.S. imperial “North American Union and to save our sovereignty. He is solidly behind President George W. Bush. It is even said that NDP leader, Jack Layton, has formed an alliance with Stephen Harper – see Jacques Lemieux’s article in The Canadian in which he makes his case and concludes, “A working alliance between Mr. Harper and Mr. Layton is the only thing that can explain why Mr. Layton has chosen not to apparently rally Canadians against the clearly reactionary agenda of Mr. Harper.”
So who’s fighting for Canada?
There is only one party that has a solid sovereigntist agenda – the Canadian Action Party. David Orchard is also trying to recruit followers in an attempt to turn the Liberal party into a sovereigntist party. But these political efforts, even if one succeeds, will be too late. This is because the North American Union will already be in place before the next Canadian national election. Clearly, another strategy is necessary if we are to save our country.
Where is the discussion on how to save Canada?
The U.S Embassy in Ottawa, Canada, brazenly boasts about this sell-out of Canadian national interests between Mr. Martin and Mr. Bush in Texas. Elites who control Canadian media organizations have chosen to cover-up this on-going treasonous scandal, and its both destructive and oppressive implications for all Canadians.
The discussion is definitely not in the corporatized “mainstream media”. The mainstream media is an arm of the same elite that is trying to implement the North American Union. The discussion will take place on the internet amongst concerned citizens and concerned organizations, on the streets and in your community. It is the people at the grassroots that have the potential to fire up a meaningful discussion on this issue. If they don’t, we are finished as a nation.
Finally, what does this mean for people in Lumby?
In a nutshell, as the nation goes, so will its people. We will not be impervious to these high level machinations. Our economy will continue to be corporatized and those corporations will continue to merge into larger entities. With the influx of cheap imported goods, small farmers, businesspeople, and entrepreneurs will be driven under by being forced to compete against larger, more powerful corporate entities.
Unless we wake up fast and begin to unite and pose an effective fightback, we can say goodbye to Canada and our prosperous way of life.

Critics say that preventing individuals who first set foot in the U.S. from making a claim in Canada will increase cases of human smuggling, and that other refugees will be forced to live without any kind of legal status in the U.S. See for example: 10 Reasons Why Safe Third Country is a Bad Deal

Wouldn’t this ‘legal integration’ be superior to ad hoc responses and largely ineffective lobbying to prevent harm from Congressional protectionist sorties? Wouldn’t our economic security be enhanced by establishing a single North American competitive market without anti-dumping and countervail rules? Are there not elements of a grand bargain to be struck, combining North American economic, defence and security arrangements within a common perimeter?” See: Why not a grand bargain with the U.S.?
