The title refers to the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP), also known as the North American Union - formerly launched at a March 23, 2005 Waco, Texas meeting attended by George Bush, Mexico's President Vincente Fox, and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin. It's for a tri-national agreement, below the radar, for greater economic, political, and security integration with secret business and government working groups devising binding policies with no public knowledge or legislative debate.
In short, it's a military-backed corporate coup d'etat against the sovereignty of three nations, their populations and legislative bodies. It's a dagger through the heart of democratic freedom in all three, yet the public is largely unaware of what's happening.

While it's still too early to speak of a trend here, of course, on the heels of the EI demonstration in Oshawa earlier this week, it is beginning to look like workers may finally beginning a "fight back".
I place a great deal of stock in these types of militant actions because first, it takes a great deal of individual and collective courage and determination to stand up to and defy the politico-economic system, particularly in this kind of way, where workers outright seize control of instruments of the economy, and it can, in the right socio-economic circumstances be extremely contagious. And often it gets done in defiance of the workers' own co-opted and "tame" union leadership, which is what is going to have to be done in likely not a few class struggle instances, if workers are to prevent the offshore shipment of key elements of the national economy, and the jobs that are part of them. (Though this particular plant is likely CAW, my old union, which has historically, while playing "the game" according to the class system rules of capitalism, not been averse going outside those "management rights" rules of the game, when there is no other choice.)
What is becoming clearer though, as the lower class rage grows here, is that "the reaction" is coming. Expect the unexpected.

As I thought, this is a CAW plant. Because it appears to be a spontaneous action on the part of the workers, though one never knows what goes on beneath the surface of these kinds of events, I will be extremely interested to see how the Union deals with this here. It will tell us a great deal about what can be expected from the formal trade union leadership, and whose side they will actually take, going forward into these times.
