SPP- US to Annex Mexico and Canada

Who doesn't have a CLUE?
That would be most congresspeople and citizens of the US who have failed to read the writing on the wall. Clearly the "Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America" is the direction the Prez is going - whether you like ir not and whether it's legal or not. And it's been out in plain sight since March 2005.
What is the SPP? Technally, it's a statement made March 23, 2005 between Canada, the US and Mexico to "develop new areas of cooperation" etc. We say its code for annex the countries, get the land, oil, labor, other resources and get on with it. Mexico gets to fight the bully to their South, Canada gets to be safe and get cheaper goods and services, the US gets land, resources , cheap labor, larger land mass. It's coming, folks, get used to it.
In fact, this announcement out of Kansas City today proves it: "A Mexican customs office is being built in the U.S. heartland as part of a newly designed "inland port" facility that links with a Mexican seaport, an official in Kansas City confirms." here
Remember when the PNAC published their intentions long before the Iraq war and everyone acted surprised when it actually happened? 'Nuff said!
Here's the press release:
THE WHITE HOUSEOffice of the Press Secretary(Crawford, Texas)March 23, 2005
Joint Statement by President Bush, President Fox, and Prime Minister Martin Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America
"We, the elected leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, gather in Texas to announce the establishment of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America.
Over the past decade, our three nations have taken important steps to expand economic opportunity for our people and to create the most vibrant and dynamic trade relationship in the world. Since September 11, 2001, we have also taken significant new steps to address the threat of terrorism and to enhance the security of our people.
But more needs to be done. In a rapidly changing world, we must develop new avenues of cooperation that will make our open societies safer and more secure, our businesses more competitive, and our economies more resilient.
Our Partnership will accomplish these objectives through a trilateral effort to increase the security, prosperity, and quality of life of our citizens. This work will be based on the principle that our security and prosperity are mutually dependent and complementary, and will reflect our shared belief in freedom, economic opportunity, and strong democratic values and institutions. Also, it will help consolidate our action into a North American framework to confront security and economic challenges, and promote the full potential of our people, addressing disparities and increasing opportunities for all.

Our Partnership is committed to reach the highest results to advance the security and well-being of our people. The Partnership is trilateral in concept; while allowing any two countries to move forward on an issue, it will create a path for the third to join later.
Advancing our Common Security
We will establish a common approach to security to protect North America from external threats, prevent and respond to threats within North America, and further streamline the secure and efficient movement of legitimate, low-risk traffic across our shared borders. As part of our efforts, we will:
-- Implement common border-security and bio-protection strategies;
-- Enhance critical infrastructure protection, and implement a common approach to emergency response;
-- Implement improvements in aviation and maritime security, combat transnational threats, and enhance intelligence partnerships; and
-- Implement a border-facilitation strategy to build capacity and improve the legitimate flow of people and cargo at our shared borders.
Advancing our Common Prosperity
We will work to enhance North American competitiveness and improve the quality of life of our people. Among other things, we will:
-- Improve productivity through regulatory cooperation to generate growth, while maintaining high standards for health and safety;
-- Promote sectoral collaboration in energy, transportation, financial services, technology, and other areas to facilitate business; and invest in our people;
-- Reduce the costs of trade through the efficient movement of goods and people; and
-- Enhance the stewardship of our environment, create a safer and more reliable food supply while facilitating agricultural trade, and protect our people from disease.
Next Steps
We will establish Ministerial-led working groups that will consult with stakeholders in our respective countries. These working groups will respond to the priorities of our people and our businesses, and will set specific, measurable, and achievable goals. They will identify concrete steps that our governments can take to meet these goals, and set implementation dates that will permit a rolling harvest of accomplishments.
Within 90 days, Ministers will report back to us with their initial report. Following this, the groups will report on a semi-annual basis. Because the Partnership will be an ongoing process of cooperation, new items will be added to the work agenda by mutual agreement as circumstances warrant.
Through this Partnership, we will ensure that North America remains the most economically dynamic region of the world and a secure home for our people in this and future generations."
