North America’s SuperCorridor {Immigration Reform will never happen}
http://www.nascocorridor.com ^ | N.A.S.C.O.

Posted on 06/19/2006 2:58:46 PM PDT by ATOMIC_PUNK

North America’s SuperCorridor Coalition, Inc., is a non-profit organization 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 NASCO Corridor encompasses Interstate Highways 35, 29 and 94, and the significant east/west connectors to those highways in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Corridor directly impacts the continental trade flow of North America. Membership includes public and private sector entities along the Corridor in Canada, the United States and Mexico.

From the largest border crossing in North America (The Ambassador Bridge in Detroit, Michigan and Windsor, Canada), to the second largest border crossing of Laredo, Texas and Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, extending to the deep water Ports of Manzanillo and Lazaro Cardenas, Mexico and to Manitoba, Canada, the impressive, tri-national NASCO membership truly reflects the international scope of the Corridor and the regions it impacts.

NASCO has officially amalgamated with the former North American International Trade Corridor Partnership, which was a non profit organization in Mexico dedicated to economic development and improving trade relations through the heartland of America to Canada and Mexico. NASCO and the NAITCP have worked together successfully in the past, and now, with the amalgamation, will operate as one organization under the name NASCO, with a shared mission and objectives.

The North American Inland Port Network (NAIPN), a sub-committee of NASCO, has been tasked with developing an active inland port network along our corridor to specifically alleviate congestion at maritime ports and our nation’s borders. The NAIPN envisions an integrated, efficient and secure network of inland ports specializing in the transportation of containerized cargo in North America. The main guiding principal of the NAIPN is to develop logistics systems that enhance global security, but at the same time do not impede the cost-effective and efficient flow of goods.

NASCO has received $2.5 million in earmarks from the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) for the development of a technology and tracking project. The project will have a team approach, using members of NASCO as the primary participants in the project, to the extent possible. NASCO believes the deployment of a modern information system will reduce the cost, improve the efficiency, reduce trade-related congestion, and enhance security of cross-border and corridor information, trade and traffic.

Nope, but they have already decided upon breaking the US into regions with regional governors. Looks like doing it by creating artificial borders, i.e., roadways is quite efficient.

Our soverignty was betrayed by the Bush dynasty a long time ago -- Clinton is just a parasite trying to play it for all he can (what is new, right?). Look at CAFTA, NAFTA, all the "free trade" ruse. You will find more disgusting betrayal.

wait now it's 2020?

Damn they keep pushing the year back.

According to head nut Jerome Corsi, the "Amero" was supposed to come around 2010 to 2013.

This is more of the same.

I wonder, how that Rush and Ingraham are getting into it, how quickly WND or Corsi will back off of it.

And yes I STILL have jobs available if you want something in the NAU (since I've been accused of being someone who would profit by it for whatever reason, I've promoted myself to foreman)....

"According to head nut Jerome Corsi..."

Interesting that he was a hero for "Unfit for Command," but is now nothing but a nutcase.

"Smart" freight corridors do not necessarily equate to no border security as long as we reserve the right to inspect any and all of it, and have it run by US citizens within our borders.

But we certainly better see physical border security first. We won't be distracted by flag burning amendments, gay-marraige bans, or even success in Iraq. We certainly won't stand for "you only get border security if you also take guest workers and smart freight corridors" either.

Its beyond me why people get upset at the prospect of improved trade and commerce among North American nations and making it more efficient. I have read everyone of these scare pieces and I have not quite got it. If it was the 1800's Corsi would be ranting against the invention of the railroad.

There is a 1950s or 1960s Science Fiction series of stories based on patroling these sorts of "Super Interstates". Despite them talking about this for more then 40 years, have you seen them break ground on even one yet?

It's not trade I'm concerned about it's the Sovereignty of our nation Canada isn't what you would call Conservative and Mexico is socialistic were stuck in the middle having to cater to both over our sovereignty and having to fight socialism at the same time socialized medicine or even socialized societies won't and don't go hand in hand with Freedom you want to trade your Capitalist Freedom for socialist [Freedom]? I for one don't !

And how about the America's going to a currency such as the euro i guess thats OK too ?

Maybe this is the reason that the Democrats have no plan because their plans are already in the works all they have to do is sit back and watch it happen

You don't have to fight for anything when your future is cast by you adversary and he's hiding behind a wall of secrecy do you ?

Our Troops are Fighting for Freedom and our Polititions are giving it away ?

or in the early 1900s, he'd be ranting against the invention of the car.....

It looks and appears to be an agreement on trade between friendly nations.

I know the protectionists are screaming about it, but of course they would, being that they want the world to go into a depression again (ala 1929).

Oh well.

Like I said, what are they going to do? Whine and complain on the internet and NOTHING will EVER happen.

Its a question of preserving our Independence, or becoming interdependent, which is what those people who rail against protectionists want.

I never called him a hero.

Honestly I was out of the country.

But since I've known his work, he hasn't impressed ME and it IS my opinion of him.

I am grateful to the John Dobson Foundation whose generous endowment of the David Somerville Chair has made it possible for me to write this paper at the Fraser Institute after my mandatory retirement from Simon Fraser University at age 65.
