Reality Check

Are We Ready For More Global ‘Shock Therapy’ in 2010?

Naomi Klein’s, The Shock Doctrine  was one of the best books in the last decade to spell out how the world is moving quickly towards a global, fascist government, disguised as a benevolent democracy,  in which nation states are brought to their knees at a moment’s notice. Economic shock therapy of all kinds, is the cheapest, most effective way to widen the gap between the rich and the poor, which has always been the goal of the Elite.

 Attacking the Chicago School and Milton Friedman, Klein shows in chapter after chapter in her latest book, that Friedman’s notion of bringing about rapid change could only happen effectively when people are deliberately “shocked” by their governments and leaders.

 Friedman traveled the world to bring this message to politicians. After a natural disaster, terrorist threat, economic downturn, biological warfare such as a flu virus, or starting a war are all examples of the conditions that are necessary before a government can bring about the change it desires.

 Remember the ‘shock and awe’ of the invasion of Iraq. The newspapers and the television networks did their part in promoting the illegal war, with the Orwellian doublespeak at the bottom of the television screens, “Operation Iraqi Freedom.” In this case the people of Iraq were being shocked and terrorized, and the American people(most unknowingly) had their Constitution and their Bill of Rights gutted by the Patriot Act.  Huge steps were made in advancing a Police State in the U.S. from 2001 to the present.

North American Union Rears its Head: Do Harper Conservatives Want American Police Forces to Have Jursidiction Here?

I would like to respond to the recent story in the media regarding the grand opening of the RCMP headquarters on Tollgate Road in Cornwall.  Cornwall is a small city in Ontario on the St. Lawrence River, and is on the Canadian/US border. When I see an event like this with all the dignitaries and the politicians present, I like to find out if there’s a hidden agenda. Often there is one.

Without any explanation it was reported that among the policing partners at the new RCMP headquarters would be the New York State Police force?

Will the Truth about the North American Union Be Revealed at the Empire Club by Bilderberg Speakers?

Today may become an historic day at the Empire Club in Toronto. 

Here is a short video clip that will serve as an introduction of what to expect from the Empire club panel speakers.

Conservatives in Denial about North American Union and Canadian Sovereignty

Some of your readers may remember the SPP (Security and Prosperity Partnership) Conference held at Montebello, Quebec in August, 2007. Primer Minister Harper hosted Presidents Bush and Calderon in what turned out to be a major fiasco.

The Quebec Provincial Police admitted that undercover police infiltrated a peaceful protest against the SPP Conference, whose mandate is for the 3 countries to work towards the formation of a North American Union. An embarrassing video of the failed attempt to provoke violence by the undercover cops was posted for the world to see on Youtube. So far the Conservative government has failed to conduct an inquiry in to this anti-democratic tactic, and has moved Canada one step closer to a police state.

When the conference (no media present) was over, Harper basically laughed in the face of all Canadians when he said the sessions were about regulating the trade of “jellybeans” between the 3 countries. Bush smirked in his trademark smile and warned of conspiracy theorists dreaming up nonsense. The media was silent, basically complicit with government in its failure to the public to investigate and report on the whole SPP issue.

So why have a big conference at a huge expense for all Canadian taxpayers last August? And why did Harper go to New Orleans on April 28, 2008 for a 4th SPP conference in 4 years? To count jellybeans?

North American Union Imminent- NWO Around the Corner

Canadian Union of Public Employees Demands Inquiry into Police Duplicity at SPP Protest in Montebello

At a peaceful protest to oppose the real goals of the SPP Conference in Montebello, Quebec on August 20, 2007, Canadians were stunned after watching a 5 minute video which focused on the actions of 3 undercover Quebec Provincial Police officers. The video is available on the previous posting on this website.

The video provides clear evidence that the 3 masked uncover policeman, one brandishing a rock in his hand while making gestures towards the police line, were sternly requested by the middle age organizers of the protest to desist and leave the protest.

The undercover cops could have used a few acting lessons as their pathetic attempts to pose as protesters was transparent to the assembled crowd, and is now part of the public record. Watch the video and you will see the police provocateurs pushing through the protest line and being dragged away by their uniformed colleagues.

The North American Union: Democracy Dying in Canada

Unfortunately, democratic rights in Canada are quickly becoming an illusion. In a sinister plot being carried out underneath our noses, the Canadian government has been working collectively with Mexico and the United States to create the conditions for a merger into a North American Union (NAU). To date, there has been absolutely no public participation concerning this merger.

The plot will thicken even more on August 20-21 when George Bush and Felipe Calderon, the presidents of the United States and Mexico, meet Stephen Harper at the Fairmont Hotel in Montebello, Quebec. Further planning and analysis of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), an informal agreement signed by the leaders of the three countries in 2005, will command center stage.

The Plan to Disappear Canada: Deep Integration Comes Out of the Shadows

By Murray Dobbin, Vancouver

If the machinations going on in this country regarding so-called "deep integration" were instead a communist conspiracy to take over the country (you will, of course, have to try hard to imagine this) the news media would be blaring the story.

Pundits would pontificate, editorialists would erupt, security forces would be unleashed.

Instead, a virtual conspiracy to make the country disappear through assimilation into the U.S. gets barely a mention.

But news of the scheme -- formally called the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) -- is finally breaking out of the secret chambers of the ruling elite and the federal government. This is both good news and bad. It's good that ordinary citizens are finally getting a glimpse of the betrayal of their country. The news is bad because it reflects just how much of this scheme is already being implemented.

Given the meetings of CEOs and politicians to advance the scheme politically, as well as all that must go into its actual implementation, there is simply too much activity to keep secret.

Tight Security Planned at Montebello for SPP Conference

OTTAWA–Rising concerns about continental integration and opposition to U.S. President George W. Bush's war in Iraq may bring protesters to Montebello, Que., in large numbers next month when Prime Minister Stephen Harper meets with his American and Mexican counterparts.

Thousands of demonstrators turned out in Ottawa the last time Bush visited Canada in 2004. But those opposing Iraq or the tightening of relations among Canada, Mexico and the U.S. are unlikely to get very close to the Aug. 20-21 summit at a luxury resort 80 kilometres from Ottawa.

Police are planning to throw up a security cordon extending several kilometres around the meeting. Details are still secret but the authorities are leaving nothing to chance.

The Ottawa-based Council of Canadians says a public forum on Canada-U.S.-Mexico issues it had planned to hold in a community centre not far from Montebello was blocked by local authorities.

Brent Patterson, the council's director of organizing, said his group was told by authorities in Papineauville, Que. – six kilometres from Montebello – that police insisted on the use of the community centre as a headquarters for security forces.

The council has rescheduled its Aug. 19 public forum to Ottawa. But Patterson expressed outrage that the public can't seem to get near the Montebello summit when corporate executives have personal access to Harper, Bush and Mexican President Felipe Calderón.

About 30 business executives have helped the three countries' leaders set the agenda under the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) initiative that forms the basis for the meeting. Begun in 2005, the initiative commits Canada, Mexico and the U.S. to advancing post-9/11 security and streamlining continental trade and business activities.

"We do think that they are trying to silence us as much as they can and keep us as far away from the summit as they can," said Patterson in an interview. "And to us, this is profoundly wrong, particularly given that a number of corporate executives from all three countries will be at the summit itself with direct access to the leaders."

Organizers for a variety of North American groups are calling on Canadians and Americans to turn out to protest the so-called "Three Amigos" summit, and thousands are expected to do so. But Montebello, an out-of-the-way spot on the north side of the Ottawa River, will be much less accessible than the capital, where large demonstrations against Bush's 2004 visit tied up the city and sparked clashes between protesters and riot police.

RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Elaine Lavergne said police are in touch with groups planning to demonstrate. But she said it's impossible to tell how many protesters will show up.

As for the decision by Quebec provincial police to take over the community centre in Papineauville, she said, "It's for security reasons, it's obvious."

Besides the unpopularity of Bush's Iraq war, the security and prosperity initiative has become a lightning rod for a wide range of concerns about the closed-door trilateral meetings.

Building on the North American Free Trade Agreement, the initiative includes efforts to clear border bottlenecks and harmonize trade tariffs, product standards and other regulations; expand cross-border energy distribution systems; beef up disaster management, and improve North American emergency procedures for outbreaks of avian flu and other pandemics.

But Canadian opponents are alarmed about the possibility that the process could chip away at Canadian sovereignty, weaken regulatory standards and lead to a loss of control over natural resources.

North American Union- Connecting the Dots

My previous articles on this website explain in detail the lead up to the North American Union under the pretense of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) and the cleverly disguised methods the governments of Mexico, Canada and the United States have used and will continue to use to change the face and the future of our North American continent.

The upcoming, so-called SPP Conference in Montebello, Quebec from August 20-21 will bring the leaders of the three countries together to ‘ratify’ the SPP, about which their respective citizens know almost nothing. This is all part of a carefully laid out plan, and is no accident. Our government leaders are not at all interested in discussing this issue with the people who elected them. Democracy with a different twist.

The media is complicit in this fascist act by government in collusion with the corporate multinationals, and have either refused to publish anything relevant, or have glossed over the entire issue in true lapdog fashion.

For further background information of the effects on Canada because of the impending North American Union, you can do no better than to read Maude Barlow’s “Too Close for Comfort” wherein Ms Barlow provides painstaking and shocking facts into the economic pillage that will affect all citizens except the wealthiest of the elite.

The purpose of this article is to analyze what else is going on in our countries right now, and then to determine what relationship this activity has with the NAU. I am stating up front that these arguments will be conjectural but need to be addressed.
