Thread: TOTAL SELLOUT: Joint security perimeter for North America

Our President this week will meet with the heads of the Mexican and Canadian governments under the guise of the 'War on Terroism.'

However, the far reaching impact of this meeting (if Congress sits still and continues to act as a corspse in a coffin) will basically shred any national American sovereignty this poor nation still has left.

What gives one man the kind of power to do such things?

Here is the strory from Canadian sources (our own media has not even carried it yet.)

Joint security perimeter for North America by 2010: report

WASHINGTON - The leaders of Canada, Mexico and the United States will discuss a plan to beef up continental security and speed up movement across their borders when they meet next week.

* INDEPTH: Continental Divide

A report calls for the creation of a common economic and security community by the end of the decade. The document's proposals would try to create a secure perimeter around the continent, while making it easier for people and goods to move across the shared borders.

The proposals contained in the report are expected to be a part of the discussions when Prime Minister Paul Martin and Mexican President Vicente Fox meet with U.S. President George W. Bush at his ranch in Crawford, Texas.

The report was jointly sponsored by the U.S. Council on Foreign Relations, the Canadian Council of Chief Executives and the Mexican Council on Foreign Relations.

Among its chief recommendations:

* Unified visa and refugee regulations.
* Joint inspection of container traffic at ports.
* An integrated terror watch list.
* Biometric border passes to allow freer movement at borders and customs sites.
* Joint energy and natural resources strategies.
* A strategy to stimulate Mexican economic development.

If the three leaders manage to agree in principle to some of the report's recommendations, further discussions would be required to hammer out the details.

Greater continental integration could be opposed in all three countries. A North American economic community could make some Canadians nervous about the country's sovereignty.

Mexicans could worry about a U.S. grab of natural resources.

Some Americans, on the other hand, could be concerned about their partners' commitment to continental security.

The task force that prepared the report was chaired by former deputy prime minister John Manley, former Mexican finance minister Pedro Aspe and former Massachusetts governor William Weld.

Does the president have the Constitutional authority to enter into such a binding treaty without the approval of Congress?

Probably not but with the move towards globalization it seems "no holds barred!"

Where's a constitutional lawyer when you need one?
