The Mammoth Book of Conspiracies (56 page)

The formation of the European Union (EU) is the “blueprint” being used to construct the North American Union (NAU). In multiple acts of treason, our government is illegally creating the NAU by using secret meetings and deceptive double-speak to hide their “
INCREMENTAL STEALTH
”. They are making MASSIVE changes to our bureaucratic-administrative-regulatory laws by calling them “
HARMONIZATIONS”
. What they are doing is rewriting our legal regulatory law to the benefit of, by, and for the corporate elite, which is … classic fascism.

On the other hand, the CFR’s “Building a North American Community” monograph actually rules out any sort of EU lash-up:

North America is different from other regions of the world and must find its own cooperative route forward. A new North American community should rely more on the market and less on bureaucracy, more on pragmatic solutions to shared problems than on grand schemes of confederation or union, such as those in Europe. We must maintain respect for each other’s national sovereignty.

Of course, those clever policy wonks in the CFR could be dealing a double bluff. Pretending not to want something but organizing for it behind doors anyway …

DOCUMENT: COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS, PRESS RELEASE “TASK FORCE URGES MEASURES TO STRENGTHEN NORTH AMERICAN COMPETITIVENESS, EXPAND TRADE, ENSURE BORDER SECURITY”.

May 17, 2005 –
North America is vulnerable on several fronts: the region faces terrorist and criminal security threats, increased economic competition from abroad, and uneven economic development at home. In response to these challenges, a trinational,
Independent Task Force on the Future of North America
has developed a roadmap to promote North American security and advance the well-being of citizens of all three countries.

When the leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the United States met in Texas recently they underscored the deep ties and shared principles of the three countries. The Council-sponsored Task Force applauds the announced “Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America,” but proposes a more ambitious vision of a new community by 2010 and specific recommendations on how to achieve it.

Pointing to increased competition from the European Union and rising economic powers such as India and China in the eleven years since NAFTA took effect, co-chair
Pedro C. Aspe
, former Finance Minister of Mexico, said, “We need a vision for North America to address the new challenges.” The Task Force establishes a blueprint for a powerhouse North American trading area that allows for the
seamless movement of goods, increased labor mobility
, and
energy security
.

“We are asking the leaders of the United States, Mexico, and Canada to be bold and adopt a vision of the future that is bigger than, and beyond, the immediate problems of the present,” said co-chair John P. Manley, Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance. “They could be the architects of a new community of North America, not mere custodians of the status quo.”

At a time of political transition in Canada and Mexico, the Task Force proposes new ideas to cope with continental challenges that should be the focus of debate in those two countries as well as the United States. To ensure a free, secure, just, and prosperous North America, the Task Force proposes a number of specific measures:

Make North America safer:

Create a single economic space:

Spread benefits more evenly:

Institutionalize the partnership:

Co-chair
William F. Weld
, former Governor of Massachusetts and U.S. Assistant Attorney General, said, “We are three liberal democracies; we are adjacent; we are already intertwined economically; we have a great deal in common historically; culturally, we have a lot to learn from one another.”

Organized in association with the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos Internacionales and the Canadian Council of Chief Executives, the Task Force includes prominent former officials, businessmen, and academic experts from all three countries. A Chairmen’s Statement was released in March in advance of the trinational summit; the full report represents the consensus of the entire Task Force membership and leadership.

Thomas d’Aquino
, President of the Consejo Mexicano de Asuntos Internacionales

Founded in 1921, the
Council on Foreign Relations
is an independent, national membership organization and a nonpartisan center for scholars dedicated to producing and disseminating ideas so that individual and corporate members, as well as policymakers, journalists, students, and interested citizens in the United States and other countries, can better understand the world and the foreign policy choices facing the United States and other governments.

The
Mexican Council on Foreign Relations
(COMEXI) is the only multi-disciplinary organization committed to fostering sophisticated, broadly inclusive political discourse and analysis on the nature of Mexico’s participation in the international arena and the relative influence of Mexico’s increasingly global orientation on domestic priorities. The Council is an independent, non-profit, pluralistic forum, with no government or institutional ties that is financed exclusively by membership dues and corporate support. The main objectives of COMEXI are to provide information and analysis of interest to our associates, as well as to create a solid institutional framework for the exchange of ideas concerning pressing world issues that affect our country.

Founded in 1976, the
Canadian Council of Chief Executives
is Canada’s premier business association, with an outstanding record of achievement in matching entrepreneurial initiative with sound public policy choices. A not-for-profit, non-partisan organization composed of the chief executives of 150 leading Canadian enterprises, the CCCE was the Canadian private sector leader in the development and promotion of the Canada-United States Free Trade Agreement during the 1980s and of the subsequent trilateral North American Free Trade Agreement.
