"The Leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the U.S met earlier this year to sanction this process. Canadians are entitled to full knowledge of and debate about the plan that will destroy us as a nation and enslave us as a people," demanded Fogal

If I stand for my country today...will my country be here to stand for me tomorrow?
Good article! People do need to know. Some of those 'progressive' steps would be good for Canada (open skies comes to mind) but most would be very very bad.

One of the first things that any sane government would look at, in my opinion, would be the re-regulation of air travel at a minimum, and perhaps even the re-nationalization of Air Canada.
Not only in Canada, but in the US as well, the airlines have shown themselves to be completely incapable of staying afloat without huge subsidies and bailouts.
Why not just buy them instead of giving them money to exist?
No thanks to deep integration of transportation.

Shut down the borders.
Close the airspace.
Make 'em ship their goods to another country, and refuse to take any of theirs.
In fact, shut down their factories, so our jobs come back home!
No trade with the bastards North of the border!
Stop the trade in oil and natural gas, and within days mayhem is everywhere in the mighty usa.
Not entirely a bad idea, but remember it was yours!

One question: who else will buy surplus Canadian hydro-generated electricity? (Australia? Japan? France? Think a little bit.)
Now think: who owns the factories in which laborers amuse themselves in which country?
Now think: which country needs the other most?
Eh?
American SUVs without gas.
American air conditioners in Atlanta and Phoenix and LA without power in summer.
American power grid closed down - no NY Stock Exchange and no subways nor traffic lights.
Every northern American state sees massive layoffs because factories without power. Riots start.
America can't train troops to attack Canada because no electricity or natural gas to run training bases. Jets sit on tarmac unable to bomb Canada because of lack of fuel. M1A1 Abrahms are just paperweights without fuel.
WalMart shoppers in arms because they can't get those low low prices in the dark.
Yep we REALLY need you guys to keep on manufacturing, to keep on moving around, to keep our economy moving - after all - your factories will be shut down- you will need everything imported - and we have all the gas. We have you by the balls but your just too dim to see it.

If memory serves y'all don't buy the surplus, Califoria steals it. Great "neighbour"
