The North American Parliament - Coming soon to a once proud, free people?

Could be the Reconquista folks, even if they are successful, are going to be just as disappointed as the Oklahomilist if the North American Unionists continue their operation.

Courtesy of our friend George Ure of UrbanSurvival.com, a link to Accuracy in Media's (AIM) coverage last Thursday of a recent conference to which you, and we, did not receive an invitation. The article is called, "The Coming North American Parliament."

The opening paragraphs got our attention:

Robert Pastor, a top Democratic Party foreign policy specialist associated with the Panama Canal giveaway, denies that he is at the center of a "vast conspiracy" to subvert American sovereignty under the cover of establishing a "North American Union." He calls the charges "absurd."

But Pastor, a former official of the Carter Administration and adviser to President Clinton, made those remarks at an all-day February 16 conference devoted to the development of a North American legal system. The holding of the conference was itself evidence that a comprehensive process is underway to merge the economies, and perhaps the social and political systems, of the three countries.

AIM is trying to raise awareness among the rank-and-file in this country of what is taking place. Some other excerpts:

Academic literature distributed in advance to conference participants about a common legal framework for the U.S., Canada and Mexico included proposals for a North American Court of Justice (with the authority to overrule a decision of the U.S. Supreme Court), a North American Trade Tribunal, a North American Court of Justice, and a Charter of Fundamental Human Rights for North America, also dubbed the North American Social Charter.

Under the latter concept, according to Laura Spitz of the University of Colorado Law School, North Americans might be able to enjoy "new rights" essential to "human flourishing" such as gay marriage. She argues in one paper that U.S. economic integration with Canada will make it nearly impossible for the United States not to recognize same-sex marriage so long as it is lawful in Canada.
Or try this:
... Pastor has a "Vision of a North American Parliament" and a step-by-step process to create it.
(...)
One speaker, Stephen Zamora of the University of Houston Law School, denounced the idea of a wall separating Mexico and the U.S., in order to control illegal immigration, asking, "What does citizenship mean anymore?" He expressed pleasant surprise when a Mexican in the audience said she had dual citizenship in Mexico and the U.S. Later, he said he was just as concerned about people living in Mexico as people living in the U.S.
There's a lot more, and when you have a moment, read the whole thing.
