Myth: The SPP is a movement to merge the United States, Mexico, and Canada into a North American Union and establish a common currency.

Fact: The cooperative efforts under the SPP, which can be found in detail at www.spp.gov, seek to make the United States, Canada and Mexico open to legitimate trade and closed to terrorism and crime. It does not change our courts or legislative processes and respects the sovereignty of the United States, Mexico, and Canada. The SPP in no way, shape or form considers the creation of a European Union-like structure or a common currency. The SPP does not attempt to modify our sovereignty or currency or change the American system of government designed by our Founding Fathers.

"We make the point that it is important for all three governments to commit themselves to security within that zone, thereby alleviating some of the need to try to build barriers at our mutual borders. That implies a great many things. It implies greater cooperation between our security and intelligence agencies, exchange of information, assistance in keeping track of persons" - Building a North American Community: Report of the Independent Task Force on the Future of North America

Thank You LF for putting the future in perspective. If the SPP doesn't work out, then Chavez and Castro (and others) will create their own SPP and it will work against the USofA.

I checked their site and saw this:

Myth: The SPP was an agreement signed by Presidents Bush and his Mexican and Canadian counterparts in Waco, TX, on March 23, 2005.

Fact: The SPP is a dialogue to increase security and enhance prosperity among the three countries. The SPP is not an agreement nor is it a treaty. In fact, no agreement was ever signed.

-Man, thats a relief. So nothing was signed and I guess that means there's nothing legal about. Interesting.

Either your are ignorant as a newborn child, or you are covering up one of the sleaziest operations to come down the pike.

No Congressional oversight. No chance for U.S. citizens to vote this f'n trash down. A relaxation of our borders while the exterior borders of three nations are supposedly strengthened.

We don't even have the will to get our own borders under control, but are being told to trust that the government of Mexcio will contribute to making our nation safer.

God, where do they find folks like you?

MYTH The SPP does not attempt to modify our sovereignty

The SPP is a TRINATIONAL organization, that is paid for by US taxpayers which an AGENCY of the EXECUTIVE BRANCH of the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

It is NOT SOVEREIGN because it is a TRINATIONAL agency.

In addition, it MODIFIES OUR SOVEREIGNTY by bypassing the authority of Congress to write laws, because it is a REGULATORY AGENCY.
