Stephen Harper’s Conservative party continues to hoodwink
the unsuspecting public as the current election campaign mirrors the party’s
well known, secretive modus operandi.
The campaign so far, is conspicuous not by what Stephen
Harper says, but by what he doesn’t say.
It’s a coincidence that Harper called the election just
before the U.S. financial meltdown, because the adverse affects have already
started percolating down. The inevitable decline of the American dollar will
take our Canadian currency into the Global basement with it, and our buying
power in Canada will diminish. Already Canadians with investments are feeling
the pinch and confidence in the market is on the decline.
Perhaps someone made a phone call to Stephen Harper in early
September to warn him what was coming, and if he wanted to call an election he
had better do it quickly, so the Conservatives could avoid the public backlash,
which will begin soon. But thankfully
for Harper, he will likely have another four-year mandate from the unsuspecting
public by then.
The media pundits are still scratching their heads about the
election call; there must have been a compelling reason for Harper to break a
promise to only call an election on a fixed date. Ironically, he had made this
change to create “transparency” in government. Oh well, we can’t expect
“transparency” all the time, can we? Especially when it doesn’t suit the
government.
The fact is that Harper has downplayed the economy, and as a
sitting prime minister, is being disingenuous in his refusal to initiate and talk about
an economic plan that Canada will need over the next 2 to 3 years or longer, in
responding to what the media and news websites are saying is the “greatest
financial crisis in the United States since the Great Depression.” But our
Prime Minister says that we in Canada have a modest surplus, and not to worry?
Related to the above issue and one that has also been
secretly advanced under the radar is
the SPP, or the Security and Prosperity Partnership well into its fourth year
of planning. Readers might remember the big conference in Montebello, Quebec
last year when Bush and Calderon met with Harper.
There was typical “Conservative” secrecy at the conference
and no media were allowed to participate. When interviewed, Prime Minister
Harper said the conference was all about “the export rules for jellybeans” and
condemned people like myself for asking tough questions. Basically, Harper
laughed in the face of all Canadians when he made this remark!
I can tell you what the SPP is all about because I have
written about it on my website, www.realitycheck.typepad.com,
and refer to it as the upcoming North American Union, which is what it is
designed to become.
It will mean that Canada will be part of the North American
Union by 2010, similar to the European Union, and that our resources and
agricultural, health and environment issues, to name a few, will be controlled
not by Canada, but by the government of the North American Union, likely to be
housed in the United States.
I believe absolutely that the North American Union will
bring about the greatest challenges that we have experienced so far in our life
times here in Canada, and it is deplorable that there has been absolutely no
public discussion on the issue. The NDP have made token attempts to mention it
in committee, but have taken the cowardly way out and refused to make it an
election issue.
If our citizenry allows the North American Union to come
into existence, then our way of life will change drastically. With
privatization of our resources, increased foreign ownership, and a Canadian
government in name only, we will become ‘North Americans’ and our sovereignty
will be forever lost. You don’t think that will happen?
The new North American currency has already been designed
and is ready to go. It’s called the “Amero” and is the brainchild of the
Council on Foreign Relations in the U.S.
As the financial crisis deepens in the U.S. people will cry
out for a government solution, and lo and behold, one will appear- the NAU and
a new currency to get North America on its feet again!
In the meantime we’re wasting a lot of taxpayers’ money to
run an unnecessary and irrelevant election so the Conservatives can batten down
the hatches for the next 4 years and tell us that they knew nothing about the
imminent changes facing Canada.
