Canada's Oil Reserves Attract U.S., As American Media Talk About Canada Annexati

Surprising it took them so long to wake up and start "demanding their rights" under the Manifest Destiny scheme! I wonder if the Chinese communists would be willing enough to finance a US invasion of Canada, as long as they're already paying for the Iraq mess? Messrs. Harper, d'Aquino and Manley would be pleased. Ed Deak, Big Lake, BC.

Canadians wouldn`t even blink!Wouldn`t care.

With the following comment by inner-circle neocon Frank Gaffney:<br />
<br />
"ROMANS: Buried in 49 pages of recommendations from the task force, the brief mention, "We must maintain respect for each other's sovereignty." But security experts say folding Mexico and Canada into the U.S. is a grave breach of that sovereignty."<br />
<br />
"FRANK GAFFNEY, CENTER FOR SECURITY POLICY: That's what would happen if anybody serious were to embrace this strategy for homogenizing the United States and its sovereignty with the very different systems existing today in Canada and Mexico. "<br />
<br />
This suggests a few things:<br />
<br />
1) as long as the neocons control the U.S., we either don't have to worry, or maybe need to worry *more*, since it implies the U.S. will not share power in North America, but still wants the oil. Gaffney's comment highlights the neocons' aversion to any international cooperation. Of course, he might just be throwing up a smoke screen.<br />
<br />
2) the calls for "annexation" are *not* coming from the U.S., they are coming from Canadian elite looking to make a quick buck and/or lower their operating costs. Let's not forget John Manley is currently on the payroll of a biometrics concern. <br />
<br />
3) our "systems" are too different right now for this to be feasible. So, supposing that feasibility is desired, you know what that means. <br />
<br />
I cannot find a quote from early in Bush's first term, something like "there's a lot of oil up in the Canadian north, and I aim to get it" has vanished from the web. At least I can't seem to find it anywhere. Anyone?<br />
<br />

Actually, the US doesn't have to annex, or invade Canada for oil, or any other commodity. The so called free trade agreements, with the exception of Mexican oil in the NAFTA, nail down that the flow, or export of any commodity crossing the borders has to be fully maintained to the last drop, with the full cooperation of our governments. This means that when oil, natural gas, or any other resource starts running out, no Canadian government will be able to save the remainder for its own citizens. This is binding to any level of government, without exceptions.

Talking about "national defence" and "sovereignty" is nonsense under such treaties. I always find it amusing when politicians talk about strong defences and armed forces, while virtually begging some of the biggest criminals, politely called "multinational corporations" on Earth to come and take over their countries, expropriate its resources and enslave its peoples. The oil producing countries are the best examples. The multinational Mafia is stealing them blind, while their crooked governments permit millions to die of starvation, AIDS and whatever. But then, this is neoclassical economics being taught in our universities and around the globe, with 40,000 children starving to death every day. Will people ever wake up that the world is being enslaved, exploited and screwed with this fraudulent economic theory ?

Think of Austria in World War 2.
Canada is on the threshold like Austria in 1939.
DHS secret police to keep us safe from dissenting citizens, what a wonderful prospect.

I can easily see our puppet government in action, aided and abetted by the "Opposition":<br />
<a href="http://encyclopedia.laborlawtalk.com/Vichy_France">http://encyclopedia.laborlawtalk.com/Vichy_France</a><br />
but I do not see anywhere on the horizon, the Canadian equivalent of the Free French Forces that opposed the Vichy government and the occupying Germans.<p>---<br>RickW

go go quebec sovereintists!!

Canada and U.S. formed a 'Common Security Zone' about 50 years ago and it has worked out well for Canada - we do very little, the U.S. does a lot. Because of this Canadians are able to squander the savings on having long health care line-ups and other socialist ideals that Canadians enjoy.

Canada makes a ton of cash selling oil to the U.S. Shooting ourselves in the foot by trying to ruin our own export markets is foolish, we need the revenue because our governments are so expensive and inefficient.

Oh bullshit! The USA never wanted Canada to take a active role in North American defense! Truthfully, Canada doesn`t need the USA for defense. If our government had the political will, we could defend ourselves, and sustain public health care! And the current deal with our oil, no, Canadians as a whole do not make a ton of cash from oil exports- it is the multi-nationals that are raking it in! Back during the days of the NEP, whereby Canada could have made a ton of cash from controlling its own resources, all I remember are brainwashed Albertans crying that Ottawa was trying to tell them what to do, and, western alienation, and all that bull, just like Quebec separatism! If the US doesn`t want to play fair with Canada, then I say, "Let the southern bastards freeze in the dark!"

Northspirit has a unique way of pushing buttons. The source for the great revelations is, hmmmmmm, one Dr. Les Sachs! It seems the good Doctor Sachs is reinventing himself and, like selling mortgage services, it's really all about him and creating a marketable commodity. Wonder if Northspirit is not, in fact, the good Doctor himself or a proxy?!

As for me, I've been stockpining bullsh#t detectors in the basement bunker for years.

Do you honestly think that a sovereign quebec would do any better?
