We'd Rather Be Canadian
By Connie Fogal
Connie Fogal, leader of the Canadian Action Party, CAP/PAC, calls for a September 2007 MOTION of NON CONFIDENCE in the Conservative government arising out of its integration of Canada into a North American Union.
Whereas: Liberal Prime Minister Paul Martin, President George Bush of the USA and President Vincente Fox of Mexico in Waco Texas in March 2005 entered an agreement called the Security and Prosperity Partnership Agreement, (S.P.P.) which intention and effect is to harmonize and integrate the three countries of Canada, U.S.A. and Mexico into a North American Union;
Whereas: immediately thereafter, Prime Minister Martin assigned three Liberal cabinet ministers, David Emerson, Anne MacClellan, and David Pettigrew the task of directing the institutional implementation of the integration through the executive branch of the Canadian government which ministers reported back to the leaders in June 2005 of their progress to that date;
Whereas: the Conservative government of Stephen Harper recommitted to the S.P.P with President Bush and President Fox in March of 2006, and is continuing the implementation of the integration of Canada into a North American Union with the U.S.A. and Mexico;
Whereas: Prime Minister Harper appointed three cabinet ministers (currently Stockwell Day, Maxime Bernier, and Peter McKay) to continue the integration through the executive branch of the Canadian government, which ministers reported back to the leaders in June 2006 of their progress to that date, and reported again in 2007;
Whereas: entering and implementing the Security and Prosperity Partnership Agreement is an abuse of and beyond the reach of the Prime Minister's and Cabinet's executive power;
Whereas: the three national leaders have adopted and submitted to a North American Competitiveness Council comprised of representatives of industry who advise and direct the Leaders and their cabinets on the institutionalization of the North American Union through the executive arm of government;
Whereas: the members of the North American Competitiveness Council are:
Canada: Dominic D'Allessandro, Manulife Financial; Paul Desmarais, Jr., Power Corporation of Canada; David Ganong, Ganong Bros. Limited; Richard George, Suncor Energy; Hunter Harrison , CNR; Linda Hasenfranz, Linamar Corporation; Michael Sabia, Bell Canada; James Shepherd, Canfor Corporation; Annette Vershuren, Home Depot Canada; Richard Waugh, Bank of Nova Scotia;
U.S.A.: Campbell Soup Company, Chevron Corporation, Ford Motor Company, FedEx Corporation, General Electric Company, General Motors Corp., Kansas City Southern, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Merck & Co., Inc., Mittal Steel USA, New York Life Insurance Company, The Proctor and Gamble Company, UPS, Wall-Mart Stores, Inc, Whirlpool Corporation;
Mexico: JL Barraza, President, Consejo Coordinador Empresarial and CEO Grupo Impulso, Realiza &Asociadas, Immobiliaria Realiza and Optima; G. Azcarraga, President, Consejo Mexicano de Hombres de Negocios and CEO of Mexicana de Aviacion and Grupo Posadas; L Halkin, President, Confederation de Camaras Industriales and Chairman of Board and CEO of four companies in industry and real estate; V Diez, President, Consejo Mexicano de Comercio Exterior, and former VP of Grupo Modelo; J. Yesaki, President, Consejo Nacional Agropecuario and CEO of several Poultry companies; C Gonzalez, President, Centro de Estudios Economicos del Sector Privado and CEO Kimberly-Clark de Mexico; G.Vogel, VP, TAMSA (Tubos de Acero de Mexico; C. de Anda Molina, CEO Avicar de Occidente; TG Sada, CEO Grupo CYDSA; A.M.Ceja, Presdent, Finca Montegrande.
Whereas: at least 30 working committees are operating at taxpayer expense implementing the agenda of the Competitiveness Council in a North American Union via the executive arm of government, which groups include officials from the Canadian government officials as well as representatives from industry, the military and academia;
Whereas: taxpayer funding is being used to build transcontinental corridors, and new border infrastructure to facilitate this integration;
Whereas: Canada's Finance Minister is permitting the Bank of Canada via its representative on the Fraser Institute to participate in the creation of a common currency called the AMERO;
Whereas: the integration/harmonization is exemplified by common developments such as:
-the institutionalization of forms of biometric identifiers of citizens by government and industry via passports and driver's licenses, and the growing industry requirement that employees submit to biometric identification as a condition of employment, including at Canadian airports;
-"no fly" lists which declare persons guilty until proven innocent;
-arming of Canadian border guards;
-authorization of the application of increased amounts of pesticides on Canadian food products;
-administration of Merk's insufficiently tested Gardasil, a cervical cancer drug, to 9-to-11 year old girls with an intention to inject all such girls in North America;
Whereas: Prime Minister Harper, President George Bush, and Mexican President Phillipe Calderone are meeting in August of 2007 (among other things) to harmonize an Avian Flu program and a North American emergency preparedness program created and operated by the U.S. Homeland Security, the details of which operation are not disclosed to any Canadian Parliamentarian, nor U.S. or Mexican Congressman;
Whereas: President Bush by numerous executive orders has granted himself dictatorial powers, including primary authority over the U. S.'s emergency preparedness program, and beyond the reach of or restraint by his own Congress;
Whereas: the U.S. Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) is conducting a project called North American Future 2025, and is conducting seven closed-door roundtable sessions in order to strengthen the capacity of Canadian, U.S. and Mexican administration officials and their respective legislatures to analyze, comprehend, and anticipate North American integration;
Whereas: the U.S. Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) has convened 21 to 45 individuals being a combination of practitioners (from each respective administration and legislature), stakeholders (from the private sector, and conceivably even some trade unions), and highly specialized academics and analysts from Canada, the United States and Mexico;
Whereas:in September of 2007 the U.S. Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) intends to deliver a final report on options and policy recommendations on the future of North American integration to the executive and legislative branches of the three governments of North America;
THEREFORE, the Canadian Action Party is calling on all Canadians to demand that on resumption of Parliament in September 2007:
That Parliament refuse to entertain the report from the U.S. Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) on options and policy recommendations on the future of North American integration, or to permit the presentation of that report to the executive branch of the Canadian government;
That there be no debate in Parliament on the pros and cons of restructuring Canada into an integrated North America, the subject being a violation of Canadians' fundamental inalienable right to enjoy and have an independent sovereign nation;
That Parliament immediately disband Canada's North American Competitiveness Council;
That Parliament immediately cease all funding for and participation in the working groups which are implementing the integration of Canada into a North American Union;
That Parliament immediately cease all funding for the North American Transportation corridors, i.e., the Super NAFTA highways;
That all opposition Members of Parliament participate in September 2007 in a MOTION OF NON CONFIDENCE in the current Conservative minority government on the issues of the unconstitutional implementation of the North American integration and the Security and Prosperity Partnership Agreement.
