Under President George W. Bush, integration occurred through the little-known "Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America." And with the Obama administration, the process, now virtually out in the open, is only accelerating. Back in 2005, the cable released recently by WikiLeaks explained how it would be done. And looking back, the document was right on the mark...
"Our research leads us to conclude that such a package should tackle both ‘security' and ‘prosperity' goals," the document claims, using the two key words that have been emphasized at every step along the way. "This fits the recommendations of Canadian economists who have assessed the options for continental integration."
Words you don't hear when the political class and mainstream media refer to supra-national political integration: loss of representation, dilution of democracy, greater expense, corruption and waste, less accountable bureaucracy, transfer payments, outsourcing...
So whatever the good of integration (and there's no denying there is some good), its extremely dishonest that these serious flaws are generally not discussed.
