Tom DeWeese, President
American
Policy Center
I know you have fought hard to preserve and protect the
freedoms of
our beloved nation, the United States.
But I must tell you now that if you and I don’t take
immediate,
strong action, no other issues will ever matter again because there will not
be a United States of America to defend.
Those are not idle words.
I’m sorry to tell you that the Administration of
President George W.
Bush is moving rapidly, and in secret, to create a North American Union with
Mexico and Canada.
The facts cannot be denied.
On March 23, 2005, President Bush, Vicente Fox, President
of Mexico
and (then) Canadian Prime Minster Paul Martin agreed to create the “Security
and Prosperity Partnership (SPP).
Since then, over 20 “working groups” have been
established to
implement a blueprint for a North American Union. That blueprint was written
by the Council on Foreign Relations.
And the working groups, operating
out of the Department of Commerce
–on your tax dollars, have been following that blueprint almost to the
letter.
They are creating a European Union
in America. You and I must move
immediately to stop them – or lose our nation forever.
First, I have prepared a special
report to provide you with all of
the facts. Please read it – and then pass it on to all of your friends and
family and contacts.
Second, I have included addresses
and phone numbers for President
Bush and to both the House and Senate leadership, Call them and demand they
stop this effort immediately. See all the details below.
There is no time to lose.
If we don’t stop the North
American Union, all will be lost. Issues
like property rights, privacy rights, illegal immigration, voluntary prayer
will all be lost at one time.
It’s urgent that you and I sound
the alarm and expose it.
You and I must stop the North
American Union – or it will be the end
of the dreams of Washington, Jefferson and the great men who founded this
nation. And it’s the end of your dreams of living in freedom. It is the end
of the United States.
North American Union Fact
Sheet
The effort is in its infancy,
however the Bush Administration has
been operating in secret for at least two years to establish what can only
be described as a North American Union with Mexico and Canada, along the
same lines as the European Union. It eventually means an end to the U.S.
Constitution as our ruling document, replaced instead with a new North
American Government.
It will eventually lead to the
surrender of U.S. sovereignty,
independence, and national borders. It will result in the establishment of a
North American currency called the “Amero,” as the dollar is junked.
The U.S. will provide the army for
defense. The U.S. will provide
Social Security benefits for those who are now citizens of Mexico and
Canada. Gone will be U.S. citizenship. Gone will be any kind of border
control between the three nations of North America.
Plans are well underway to
establish a NAFTA Super Highway, to be
the width of eight football fields. It will run from Mexico to Canada,
running through the middle of the United States. No tariffs or no
inspections will be enforced as trucks from Mexico and Canada drive through
this nation.
Kansas City, MO has been tapped to
serve as an “inland port” to
handle imports and exports among the three nations. Operating quietly,
Kansas City has already designated $2.5 million of its taxpayer’s money to
establish the port. Now, some say the land the port sits on will become
officially Mexican sovereign territory.
The effort began on March 23, 2005,
after a summit, held in Waco,
TX. It was attended by President Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox, and
(then) Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin. The three leaders signed an
agreement to create common policies concerning various economic and security
areas among the three nations.
For obvious cover of official
deniability, the term “North American
Union” is not being used. Instead, the agreement officially authorized eight
tri-national “working groups” to establish the “Security and Prosperity
Partnership (SPP). The concept is being sold as simply a new framework
within which the member nations can create free trade and security within
the North American continent. However, based on working documents, the
intent to create the North American Union is impossible to hide.
The trilateral agreement, signed as
a joint declaration, has not
been submitted to Congress for review. There is no congressional
oversight.
Security and Prosperity
Partnership (SPP)
The joint statement on the SPP,
issued on March, 23, 2005 described
it as an initiative to: “…establish a common approach to security to
protect
North America from external threats, prevent and respond to threats within
North America, and further streamline the security and efficient movement of
legitimate, low-risk traffic across our shared borders.”
The working groups are now laying
the foundation for a European
Union-style integration of the North American continent.
The White House has established the
SPP office in the North American
Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) office in the U.S. Department of Commerce,
where it has worked in virtual secrecy for two years. As the process
proceeds, the SPP groups have not released public reports on their
activities.
Over the past two years, at least
20 SPP working groups have
produced a number of memorandums of understanding and trilateral
declarations of agreement. These agreements cover a wide variety of issues
including, e-commerce, aviation policy, border and immigration policy, and
the means for multiple governmental agencies to interact. They may be viewed
on the Internet at http://www.spp.gov.
Council on Foreign
Relations Blue Print
Many SPP working groups appear to
be working toward achieving
specific objectives as defined by a May, 2005 Council on Foreign
Relations(CFR) task force report, which presented a blueprint for expanding
the SPP agreement into a North American Union that would merge the U.S.,
Canada and Mexico into a new governmental form.
The CFR report is entitled
“Building a North American Community,”
and is essentially a five year plan for implementing the North American
Union. It may be viewed at the CFR Internet web sight at http://www.cfr.org.
A member of the CFR taskforce, Dr.
Robert Pastor, wrote a book,
published in 2001, titled “Toward a North American Commission.” The CFR
taskforce report and the official SPP agreement carry almost identical
language as the Pastor’s book.
The book, the CFR task force and
the SPP agreement call for the
establishment of a North American Competitiveness Council to pull in the
private sector to the SPP process. In addition, all three call for the
establishment of a “North American Advisory Council,” which is to be an
“independent body of advisors,” composed of “eminent persons from
outside
the government.”
In 2002, Dr. Pastor addressed the
Trilateral Commission, calling for
the establishment of a North American Investment Fund that would supplement
World Bank funds expended in a trilateral effort to develop Mexico
economically. The May, 2005 CFR report called for the same fund. Efforts are
now underway in the SPP to officially establish the fund.
The CFR Task Force calls for the
“creation by 2010 of a North
American community to enhance security, prosperity, and opportunity. We
propose a community based on the principle affirmed in the March, 2005 Joint
Statement of the three leaders (of the three nations) that ‘our security and
prosperity are mutually dependent and complementary.’ Its boundaries will be
defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter within the
movement of people, products and capital will be legal, orderly, and
safe.”
To those ends, the CFR report
called for establishment of a common
security border perimeter around North America by 2010, along with free
movement of people, commerce and capital to be facilitated by the
establishment of a North American Border Pass that would replace a U.S.
passport for travel between the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
Also envisioned by the CFR task
force include a North American
Court, a North American inter-parliamentary group, A North American
Executive Commission, a North American Military Defense Command, a North
American Customs Office and a North American Development Bank.
The task force report is important
to the debate over the official
Security and Prosperity Partnership because the language used in the CFR
task force report and SPP documents, so far, have proven to be nearly
identical. Clearly the CFR task force report is being used as the blue print
to establish the North American Union.
No Congressional
Authorization or Oversight
To date, Congress has passed no specific legislation to
authorize
the activities of the SPP, nor to funds it is spending. Congress has had
no
official involvement in the process and has no oversight.
Congressman Tom Tancredo, (R-Colo)
has demanded that the Bush
Administration fully disclose the activities of the SPP working groups,
including revealing the names of the members of those groups. No answers to
his demands have yet been received from the Bush Administration, though the
activity continues to move forward.
NAFTA Super Highway
Quietly, the Bush Administration is working to advance a
plan to
build super highways through the heart of the United States to transport
goods from Mexico and Canada. The highways are part of the original North
American Free Trade Agreement, (NAFTA). The plan is now being advanced
through an operation called “North America’s SuperCorridor Coalition,
Inc”
(NASCO). Since being exposed to the general public, NASCO is now denying it is
building the highways, but plans go forward.
Beginning at the southern tip of Mexico, passing through
Laredo, TX,
the highway heads to an “inland port” in Kansas City, where a “Sentry
System” will electronically inspect the cargos, before they head East or
West, or continue on North through Duluth, Minnesota and into Canada.
The Super Transnational System includes multiple lanes for
cars and
trucks. Speed limits will be relaxed as well as safety inspections for
vehicles from Mexico and Canada. Trucks will be allowed to carry extra
tonnage and be extra long. A Railway system will travel up the center of
the highway.
Several such highways are contemplated. Environmental
impact studies
have already been completed. In Texas, efforts are already underway as
584,000 acres have been targets for takings through Eminent Domain.
Kansas City Customs Port to
be Mexican Soil
Kansas City will serve as an “inland port” for the
NAFTA
Superhighway. It will be the first, and perhaps ONLY check point and
disbursement center for trucks bringing their cargos into this country from
Mexico and Canada. The official organization in charge of setting up the
port is KCSmartPort.
As part of the inland port, a
Mexican Customs office is being
established. The Kansas City Council has voted a $2.5 million loan to
KCSmartPort to build the Mexican customs facility in the West Bottoms near
Kemper Area on city-owned land east of Liberty Street and mostly south of
Interstate 670.
According to e-mails and other
documents obtained by World Net
Daily, top executives with the KCSmartPort project, suggest the facility
“would need to be designated as Mexican sovereign territory and meet certain
requirements.”
The negotiations with Mexico and the U.S. State Department
for the
final approval of the Mexican Customs office are proceeding in secret.
The “Amero,” Merging
U.S., Canadian and Mexican Currencies
Though it will take some years to finalize, plans are being
laid to
create a new currency for the coming North American Union, much like the
Euro replaced the currencies of individual countries of the European Union.
The Amero would replace the U.S. Dollar, Peso and Canadian Dollar.
The plan has been specifically promoted through Dr.
Pastor’s book,
the blueprint for the rest of the SPP plan, and now may be officially moving
through the establishment of a new SPP effort called the “Financial Services
Work Group.” To date, it is too early to tell exactly when such a change
would move forward, but it is being discussed in high places.
The issue is so controversial that U.S. officials deny it
has even
been discussed.
A new government for North
America
Many Americans simply do not believe that the United States
would
voluntarily give up its sovereignty to a North American Union. Those who
think this way somehow believe that there will be a vote of the American
people to decide.
It is little understood that such actions are done
incrementally,
behind closed doors, until the plans are so far along that stopping them
becomes nearly impossible. The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was
sold as simply a way for American producers to broaden their markets. So too,
was the European Union sold to the proud, ancient nations of that continent.
Today, a new, socialist government rules them, complete with a
ruling body, a new currency, a tax system, court system and a defense system
-- all the ingredients necessary for a government.
Operating in secret, SPP working groups are efficiently
laying the
groundwork for the destruction of the United States of America. Once the
North American Union is in place, we will then have to compromise our very
unique nation of protected freedoms with the socialist nations of Mexico and
Canada, where property rights, justice, economics and natural rights are not
recognized. Government decides.
The Security and Prosperity Partnership is about neither.
It is not
a plan simply to help sell American goods to larger markets. It is not a
plan to help keep our nation safer in a security partnership with Mexico and
Canada. Shutting our borders, not opening them, would do far more to
accomplish that goal. The SPP is about creating a continental government.
The SPP is an invasion of our culture and our economy.
It’s about
the redistribution of American wealth and industry. It is the end of over
250 years of an historic experiment in freedom – unless Americans across the
nation say no – now.
