American University Professor Robert Pastor
WASHINGTON – In another example of the way the three nations of North America are being drawn into a federation, or "merger," students from 10 universities in the U.S., Mexico and Canada are participating annually in a simulated "model Parliament."
Under the sponsorship of the Canadian based North American Forum on Integration, students met in the Mexican Senate for five days in May in an event dubbed "Triumvirate," with organizers declaring "A North American Parliament is born."
A similar event took place in the Canadian Senate in 2005.
The intentions of organizers are clear.
"The creation of a North American parliament, such as the one being simulated by these young people, should be considered," explained Raymond Chretien, the president of the Triumvirate and the former Canadian ambassador to both Mexico and the U.S.
Participants discuss draft bills on trade corridors, immigration, provisions of the North American Free Trade Agreement and produce a daily newspaper called "The TrilatHerald."
(Story continues below)
The 10 universities taking part include Harvard, American University, Carlton University, Simon Fraser, Universite de Montreal, Ecole nationale d'administration publique, Monterrey TEC, CIDE, Monterrey University and Instituto Mexicano de la Juventud.
Officials taking part have included James Williams, the former U.S. ambassador to Canada. The North American Forum on Integration says the annual event enjoys the support of the U.S. Embassy in Canada, the Canadian Embassy in Mexico and the North American Development Bank. It also has been supported by at least one U.S. news organization – the Houston Chronicle.
NAFI says it is "a non-profit organization devoted to developing North American dialogue and networks and at publicizing issues raised by North American integration."
The board of directors of NAFI include Robert A. Pastor, professor and director of the Center for North American Studies at American University and vice chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations Task Force on North America. He has testified before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations on the idea of merging the United States, Mexico and Canada in a North American union stretching from Prudhoe Bay to Guatemala.
"What we need to do," Pastor instructed, "is forge a new North American Community. ... Instead of stopping North Americans on the borders, we ought to provide them with a secure, biometric border pass that would ease transit across the border like an E-Z pass permits our cars to speed through tolls."
Pastor is the author of "Toward a North American Community," a book promoting the development of a North American union as a regional government and the adoption of the amero as a common monetary currency to replace the dollar and the peso.
As vice chairman of the May 2005 CFR task force, he is an architect of the Building a North American Community" plan that presents itself as a blueprint for using bureaucratic action within the executive branches of Mexico, the U.S. and Canada to transform the current trilateral Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America into a North American union regional government.
The CFR report is a five-year plan for the "establishment by 2010 of a North American economic and security community" with a common "outer security perimeter." Some see it as the blueprint for merger of the U.S., Canada and Mexico. It calls for "a common economic space ... for all people in the region, a space in which trade, capital and people flow freely."
The CFR's strategy calls specifically for "a more open border for the movement of goods and people." It calls for laying "the groundwork for the freer flow of people within North America." It calls for efforts to "harmonize visa and asylum regulations." It calls for efforts to "harmonize entry screening."
In "Building a North American Community," the report states that Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin "committed their governments" to this goal March 23, 2005, at that meeting in Waco, Texas.
Pastor believes the U.S. and Canadian government should divert significant new taxpayer funding to solving the problems of the poor in Mexico.( And this is our job? Why does Mex. even have a government?)
"If Canada and the United States contributed just 10 percent of what the European Union spends on aid for its poorest member, and if Mexico invested it wisely in infrastructure and education, then Mexico could begin to grow at twice the rate of its northern neighbors, and North America would have found the magic formula to lift developing countries to the level of the industrialized world," he said in 2002.
The next Triumvirate model parliament conference will be in the United States – in either New York or Washington, according to a spokeswoman for the North American Forum.
It's not just the mock "parliament" sessions involving students of the three countries that raises concerns among those suspicious about political and social "inertia" moving the U.S. into a European Union-style merger with its northern and southern neighbors.
Earlier this month, a high-level, top-secret meeting of the North American Forum took place in Banff, Canada – with topics ranging from "A Vision for North America," "Opportunities for Security Cooperation" and "Demographic and Social Dimensions of North American Integration."
Pastor was listed as a confirmed participant in that meeting, along with Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, former Secretary of State George Shultz, former Central Intelligence Agency Director R. James Woolsey, former Immigration and Naturalization Services Director Doris Meissner, former Defense Secretary William Perry, former Energy Secretary and Defense Secretary James Schlesinger and top officials of both Mexico and Canada.
Opposition is mounting to such meetings, policy papers and presidential directives leading to what some critics characterize as "NAFTA on steroids." The concerns began in earnest March 31, 2005, when the elected leaders of the U.S., Mexico and Canada agreed to advance the agenda of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America.
Perhaps the most blistering criticism came earlier this summer from Lou Dobbs of CNN – a frequent critic of President Bush's immigration policies.
"A regional prosperity and security program?" he asked rhetorically in a recent cablecast. "This is absolute ignorance. And the fact that we are – we reported this, we should point out, when it was signed. But, as we watch this thing progress, these working groups are continuing. They're intensifying. What in the world are these people thinking about? You know, I was asked the other day about whether or not I really thought the American people had the stomach to stand up and stop this nonsense, this direction from a group of elites, an absolute contravention of our law, of our Constitution, every national value. And I hope, I pray that I'm right when I said yes. But this is – I mean, this is beyond belief."
No one seems quite certain what that agenda is because of the vagueness of the official declarations. But among the things the leaders of the three countries agreed to work toward were borders that would allow for easier and faster moving of goods and people between the countries.
Coming as the announcement did in the midst of a raging national debate in the U.S. over borders seen as far to open already, more than a few jaws dropped.
Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo. and the chairman of the House Immigration Reform Caucus as well as author of the new book, "In Mortal Danger," may be the only elected official to challenge openly the plans for the new superstate.
Responding to a WND report, Tancredo is demanding the Bush administration fully disclose the activities of the government office implementing the trilateral agreement that has no authorization from Congress.
Tancredo wants to know the membership of the Security and Prosperity Partnership groups along with their various trilateral memoranda of understanding and other agreements reached with counterparts in Mexico and Canada.
Why the secrecy?
Geri Word, who heads the SPP office, told WND the work had not been disclosed because, "We did not want to get the contact people of the working groups distracted by calls from the public."
The concerns about the direction such powerful men could lead Americans without their knowledge is only heightened when interlocking networks are discovered. For instance, one of the components envisioned for this future "North American Union" is a superhighway running from Mexico, through the U.S. and into Canada. It is being promoted by the North American SuperCorridor Coalition, or NASCO, a non-profit group "dedicated to developing the world’s first international, integrated and secure, multi-modal transportation system along the International Mid-Continent Trade and Transportation Corridor to improve both the trade competitiveness and quality of life in North America."
The president of NASCO is George Blackwood, who earlier launched the North American International Trade Corridor Partnership. In fact, NAITCP later morphed into NASCO. A NAITCP summit meeting in 2004, attended by senior Mexican government officials, heard from American University's Pastor.

People. we need to fight this, but how? Should we start writing the Colleges, Robert Paster, flood our Reps. with emails....or alert parents of what is going on at their kid's colleges?
out of the 3 countries - Mexico , America , Canada - America is
"the most wanted " country for the immigrants
So it should be America to push for the union not others - it sounds like a person who is living in the mobile home is telling to someone owning the mansion :
" Let me come and share the mansion with you - it will be beneficial for both of us ."
Is it true ?- I do not think so _________________ " Do not compromise yourself . You are all you've got ." -Janice Joplin .

The North American Forum on Integration is organizing from the 22 to 26 of May 2006 the second edition of the Triumvirate, the only North American model parliament. About 15 universities will be invited to assign senior bachelor students and post graduate students to simulate, during five days, a parliamentary meeting between Canadian, Mexican and American national and sub-national parliamentarians. Each participant will have to represent a country other than their own, and adopt resolutions regarding real issues faced by the NAFTA partners.
A second edition in 2006
A second edition of the Triumvirate will take place from the 22nd to the 26th of May 2006, in the Mexican Senate. Here is the Official Program.
By organizing the Triumvirate, NAFI aims to:
Unite young leaders of Canada, the United States and Mexico to develop their knowledge of North American issues and political dynamics;
Foster a better knowledge of the workings of democratic institutions and of the partner countries of NAFTA;
Expose participants to an international negotiation experience in which everyone has to develop and adopt proposals that are likely to consolidate the North American region;
Develop a trilateral approach to political and economic issues and a feeling of belonging to North America;
Support intercultural exchanges and the creation of networks of contacts among young North American university leaders;
Inform decision makers of the vision and concerns of youth concerning the future of North American relations.
Themes are:
1- NAFTA’s dispute settlement procedure;
2- the creation of a North American investment fund;
3- migration flows;
4- mobility in the domain of higher education.

One thing I don't quite get is with Mexico. There's been stories I've read where South American, Cuba etc. are wanting a Latino force to be delt with which includes Mexico in their picture. Mexico is in this Unions picture. China which is communist is getting a foothold in Mexico and chummy with South America. It's almost as if Mexico is a pawn in 2 different games. Who do you think they would go with if it came to that? I think it puts us in a way too vunerable position to even consider something like this.
So tell me ... where these people speaking English, Canadian French, or Mexican Spanish, or all of the above? Sorry, just had to toss a little sarcasm in there.
About whether Mexico would take the side of China or us - Think of it as kind of like you selling a house and are entertaining 2 offers. Naturally you are going to go with the one that benefits you the most. You'd be looked at as though you were crazy if you didn't, right? Same thing here ... just much much bigger house.
That's the only way I can explain it without going into a really long post.

Ladydrake.....I agree. It just also seems they are more loyal to hispanics than the ever hated europeans who have been in power too long. The US and Canada are diverse countries but still fall in the "European" bracket. China isn't fond of us for anything but money. Mexico wants us for money and their people basicly hate us as well. Same as South America. I'm just saying if push comes to shove I honestly beleive they'd sell us out in a heartbeat, so why do they even consider a move like this? Mexico and South America seems to fit quite well in the agenda with China. They haven't fit so well in ours. Right now in the hate America and gringo movement.....it seems Canada and Australia are our best friends....outside of course alot of Europe. Ya sure for now.......while we seem to gladly accept any illegal that comes over the border.....they'd be thrilled to have the US and Canada pay to better their lives on our dime. Then what? They've already moved in trying to change our language, culture and constant in your face rights that apply only to hispanics..........and it just doesn't feel right. To me it's a move to distruction.
I don't wish to contribute to a thread of an organization I find to be extremely racist, elitist and exclusionary. ALIPAC hurts us all.
America was created by Europeans who stole this land (or in some cases traded it for a few bottles of whisky and some shotguns) from its indigineous peoples whilst plundering, murdering and raping its inhabitants. They set up borders, stole important artifacts and kidnapped people which were sent back to Europe.
This land belongs to the indigineous peoples - the very ones you are trying to keep out. Mexicans have more claim to the territorial United States than Euro-Americans do. There are NO illegals.
I would love to see ALIPAC dismantled. This organization makes me sick.
I represented your organization at the North American Forum on Integration (a model parliament) this past summer. I won the title of 'Distinguished Delegate' for lobbying on behalf of ALIPAC. I won the award because I represented 'Americans For Legal Immigration' well as I lobbied on their behalf. If you read the final report, you will see that I was successful in persuading legislators from Canada, the US, and Mexico to sympathize with ALIPAC's aims.
Rest assured that your organization, no matter how dispicable it is, was represented by myself with the most amount of professionalism and accuracy.
The name of your organization is not being used to practice the unlawful merger of the US, Canada, and Mexico. We are assuming that the merger has already taken place in a completly lawful and sustainable manner.
I'm just saying if push comes to shove I honestly beleive they'd sell us out in a heartbeat, so why do they even consider a move like this?
This is where things become more like a chess game. I know, it's all an intricate web really, but anyway, they set up their pieces, sacrifice what is neccessary, and then when the time is right, they move in for the kill ... check mate.
Here's another way to look at it. Here's this country who is a mere babe (in age) compared to rest of the world. Yet, in a very short time, it has grown, become rich, and is the world's leader. Not to mention, we've done it using methods ("democracy") they do not ascribe to and it worked.
It's hard not to think of it as the modern-day Roman Empire. It's hard not to be jealous of their achievements when so many other countries who have been around for so long have never achieved such power.
It's easy to criticize them. It's easy to hate them. It's easy to want to see them fall.
Then with this whole stupid NAU thing, it makes it even easier. They get a front row seat, even get to participate some plus they get a slice of the pie. What's not enticing about that?
Quote:
To me it's a move to distruction.
In my opinion, that's the whole point. I mean we all know what globalization really is. What's funny to me is how people in other countries have put the term "imperialistic" to us (America), yet where's their outrage at globalization?
I doubt very seriously that an Open Borders advocate like yourself could ever do ALIPAC the slightest justice as you seem to have no real passion for our or true understanding of our side of this issue.
You cannot lawfully reconstruct the United States of America without changing the US Constitution and gaining ratification by the states.
If you are correct and this is already the case to be prepared for and practiced, then your masters have just set the stage for massive unrest as the side you advocate for has deprived all American, Canadian, and Mexican citizens of their rights.
How does it feel to be a doll of the devil?

OUR OBJECTIVES
On a general basis, the objectives of NAFI are:
making the public and decision-makers aware of the challenges of economic and political integration between the three NAFTA countries;
identifying new ideas and strategies to reinforce the North American region;
establishing a new tradition of North American multi-disciplinary meetings and alternating in the three countries;
favouring the creation of North American networks to set the basis for a trilateral dialogue;
identifying elements of a North American agenda to put forward integration beyond the reduction of tariffs;
putting on the political agenda the idea of creating a North American Investment Fund that would stimulate Mexican economic growth and gaining the support of public opinion and decision-makers regarding the advantages of such a fund.
I'm just amazed that something like this has happened. I will read through all of the material later, but my instincts are saying that this young man would NEVER chose to represent ALIPAC and was probably told to represent ALIPAC so someone could analyze the little human guinea pigs in a clinical and conflict oriented environment.
First and foremost, why did you choose to "represent" ALIPAC in the first place?
Second, what made you think you could successfully "lobby" for something you are so vehemently against with absolutely none of your own prejudices getting in the way, even if it was in a "model" forum?
