Months ago I began to inform friends of then closely guarded secrets about emerging programs to integrate North America politically and economically by "stealth". News had leaked out through the Internet. Of course the conventional press did not mention it. I recall the incredulous looks I got from some of those I told.

If you have business interests in North America and you have political interests in open democratic process you may find the following information important.

You can read about the actions being taken Here, Here, Here, Here and in many other places you can easily find by doing a Google search on "Secret Meetings Banff".

This secret was that the US, Canada and Mexico were well along in creating a North American Union by "Stealth" means supported by the Executive Branches of the three national administrations without the active participation of the Legislative Branches or the citizens of the three countries except for a small elite who are engineering the deal. The "Union" would eventually supersede the constitutions and the separate govenments of the three countries.

At least one earlier meeting, before the Banff meeting in September 2006, was held in the US at Baylor University at Waco, Texas in March 2005 in secret between the elected chief executives of the US, Mexico and Canada.

After the "Secrets" leaked out, the Council on Foreign Relations (I give you three links to CFR:CFR View of Themselves, the Wikipedia view of CFR and a Less Flattering View) and other groups at the core of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America have begun a public relations process to convince the public that these moves, first made in total secrecy, were and are really for the best interests of citizens of the three countries. It is claimed that their actions had be be started in secret to deal with "uninformed opposition". I hope you will do a Google Search on the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SSP), read the range of opinions available and inform yourself on this critical issue.

We should be aware that this is a serious movement by powerful forces. I can see both important benefits and liabilities. The biggest question I have is whether such important transformations should be designed, engineered and controlled by secret means outside a process that involves the Legislatures of the three countries, even though it is a slower more agonizing process for the proponents. Another serious question is who is going to pay for its grandiose expenditures. I have read that the new SSP Trade Corridors will be paid for by making now free roads in the US into toll roads.

To assure you this is not fiction, I suggest that you look up theTrans Texas Corridor. The TTC is the Texas portion of a vast US road and rail system that bypasses US West coast ports to import freight directly from China through Mexican ports, partly owned by Chinese interests, then transported along the corridor to Mexican Government customs in Kansas City, Missouri and finally distributed throughout the US and Canada. The US-Mexico border would cease to exist for practical purposes.

Finally you should be aware of the planning to replace the the three national currencies with a new one called the Amero.

This movement seems to be accelerating independent of the Legislatures or public debate. On February 17, 2007 in Ottawa, Canada the third Ministerial Meeting of SSP was held. On June 26-29, 2007 PM Harper, President Bush and President Calderon are scheduled to meet Kananaskis, Alberta, Canada to further the SSP.
