DID YOU KNOW THAT HARPER IS HEADING CANADA INTO A SUPERSTATE WITH THE U.S. AND MEXICO?

Watch out Canadians, on April 21-22, 2008, Harper is meeting up with Bush to plan Canada's demise; taking away our individual independence in order to empower the corporations that in turn fatten the pockets of the government. This is all done behind closed doors, so it is time to speak out against this, write a letter to our wonderful Prime Minister, tell him that we are not cool with this, that we don't want to become integrated with the United States or Mexico. LET'S GET ANGRY, THEN LET'S GET ACTIVE...STOP THE SUPERSTATE!
Email Stephen Harper at: Harper.S@parl.gc.ca and tell him that we are against deep integration with the U.S. and Mexico!
Not Counting Canadians: The Security and Prosperity Partnership and public opinion
From April 7–10, 2008, the Council of Canadians commissioned Environics Research Group to conduct a survey of Canadians to find out how they feel about the major SPP policy directions and initiatives, including North American regulatory convergence, energy integration with the United States, bulk water exports, and the adoption of U.S.-style security measures in Canada. We also asked whether such a wide-reaching trilateral agreement should be brought to Parliament for a debate and vote.
87% of Canadians agree that Canada should maintain the ability to set its own independent environmental, health and safety standards, even if this might reduce cross-border trade opportunities with the United States. And yet the Harper government is committed to an SPP policy of regulatory harmonization in the areas of consumer product safety, food and drugs, and the environment.
89% of Canadians agree that Canada should establish an energy policy that provides reliable supplies of oil, gas and electricity at stable prices and protects the environment, even if this means placing restrictions on exports and foreign ownership of Canadian supplies. And yet the Harper government is committed to a “market-based” policy of energy integration with the U.S. through the SPP’s North American Energy Working Group.
88% of Canadians agree that Canada should adopt a comprehensive national water policy that recognizes clean drinking water as a basic human right and also bans the bulk export of fresh water. And yet bulk water exports to the U.S. are on the table in SPP discussions.
48% of Canadians do not feel that Canada should harmonize its security policies with the United States, even if this affects our trading relationship. It was the only question on which Canadians were divided. And yet the 2008 Federal budget committed millions of extra dollars to SPP security initiatives anyway.
86% of Canadians agree that the Security and Prosperity Partnership agreement should be debated and submitted to a vote in Parliament. Yet four years later, the debate is nowhere to be seen.
Canadian preferences for policies that run counter to the key SPP priorities listed above show conclusively that Prime Minister Harper does not have a democratic mandate for pursuing this agenda in secretive trilateral talks like the upcoming North American leaders summit in New Orleans. The government must cease all further SPP talks and debate the agreement fully and openly before submitting it to Parliament for a vote.

DEMAND OUR RIGHT TO A FREE INTERNET!

Of course, we all knew it was coming, Canada is making plans to monopolize the Internet, in turn, taking our freedom away from what is our source of knowledge and activism...Do you think they were going to let us get away with having this media outlet as a democratic one? If you haven't noticed, A LOT of our freedoms have been taking away since we have become buddy buddy with the United States. Have you thought about your vote in 2009 yet? Because the Conservatives and the Liberals have become a two-headed monster, planning on taking away our rights so that their cronies, and the American cronies can fill up their pockets with blood money, and they know we will simply follow behind them as good sheep do.
Take Action, visit this site and send a letter to advocate our right to a free internet!
