Trupolitik, hedgetrimmer, ping (if you actually read this).
Gulp!
Why all the hoopla now when it's been building up for years? /sarcasm
I hope I didn't kill your thread.
Thought you might like this one.
Same old crap, different day.
Look, it's a North American Union.
"The FOIA documents show the organizational chart and the composition of a 'shadow Department of Transportation' which includes formal membership from Mexico and Canada's Departments of Transportation," asserts Corsi.
"SPP has in effect created a fully-functioning trilateral Department of Transportation which will dictate policy to Mary Peters as soon as she is confirmed to replace Leon Mineta as U.S. secretary of Transportation." As WND reported yesterday, the government documents reveal the Bush administration is running a "shadow government" with Mexico and Canada in which the U.S. is crafting a broad range of policy in conjunction with its neighbors to the north and south.The FOIA documents list the following three administrators from the U.S., Mexico, and Canada as the official contacts for the SPP Transportation Working Group:
Jeffrey N. Shane
Under Secretary for Policy
U.S. Department of Transportation
Phone: 202-366-1815 Jeffrey.Shane@sdit.gov
Kristine Burr
Assistant Deputy Minister, Policy
Transport Canada
Phone 613-998-1880
Aaron Dychter
Deputy Secretary for Transportation
Secretaria de Communicaciones y Transportes
Phone: (52 55) 55595165 adychter@sct.gob.mx
An SPP document entitled "Traveler Security: Develop and Implement Consistent Outcomes with Compatible Processes for Screening Prior to Departure from a Foreign Port and at the First Port of Entry to North America" says a "single, integrated, global enrollment program for North American trusted travelers" will be implemented "within 36 months." No date is indicated on the SPP document.
"Evidently SPP has decided to erase our internal borders with Mexico and Canada," Corsi told WND. "We have no trilateral treaty voted by two-thirds of the Senate that has authorized North American trusted traveler biometric cards to be issued to the citizens of the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Yet this is exactly what the shadow administrative branch created within the Bush administration under the auspices of an SPP working group is doing."The documents released to Corsi under the FOIA request reveal a pattern of e-mails that are regularly sent from within the Bush administration executive branch to a wide range of U.S. administrative-branch personnel with e-mail copies sent equally to administrative branch officers in the governments of Mexico and Canada.
"This would be like President Bush putting partitions in the Oval Office," Corsi argued to WND, "so desks could be set up for Canada's Prime Minister Harper and for Mexico's new President Calderon as soon as he takes office."The SPP.gov website in the Department of Commerce has added a new "Myth vs. Facts" section which documents that the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America is neither a treaty nor a law.
"Where is the constitutional authorization?" Corsi asks WND. "The Bush administration has just decided to restructure the executive branch to include Mexico and Canada without bothering to notify the voting public or the U.S. Congress." Corsi said the approximately 1,000 pages of SPP documentation received under his FOIA request will be posted "as soon as possible" to the website of the Minuteman Project, of which he is a member.Minutemen founder Jim Gilchrist "and I plan to publish extensively from these documents," Corsi said, "and we want the readers to be able to see for themselves the original documents that evidence the conclusions we are drawing."
Corsi said the FOIA request has only been partially fulfilled. "There are hundreds of trilateral meetings and agreements referenced in the documents we have, but most of the substantive documents appear to have been intentionally withheld," Corsi said. "In the next few days, our lawyers will be pressing for an honest FOIA document disclosure by the Bush administration."BTW someone changed the title of this thread from what was originally posted

"Thank you for taking the time to contact me. I apologize for the delay in my response. I value the correspondence I get from people back home in Wisconsin, and I would like to take this opportunity to address your concerns.
There are no plans to merge the sovereign nations of the United States, Canada, and Mexico into a new state. Further, no legislation that would create such an organization has come before Congress.
The idea of a North American Union has been widely attributed to the trilateral initiative between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, called the "Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) of North America."
The SPP was announced in March of 2005 by President George W. Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox, and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin as an effort to increase security and enhance prosperity among the three countries.
Soon after the March 2005 meeting of the SPP the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) published a report titled Building a North American Community, which had been labeled by some as the "blueprint" for a North American Union. Its central recommendation is the establishment of a North American economic and security community by 2010.
The CFR is an independent think tank and has no affiliation with the U.S. government; therefore the proposals are CFR's own recommendations.
Again, thank you for contacting me. I appreciate knowing your thoughts on this issue."
Sincerely,
Herb Kohl
U.S. Senator
