    i have no desire to be merged with mexico or canada. i would imagine they think the same. the video does look suspect tho.

     I'm not thrilled by the idea.  There's been alot of bad vibes between Canada and the States for a long time.  Mostly stereotypes on both sides.  I recently saw a video where one report bashed Canada rediculously.  But she was clearly an idiot.  LOL. 

    For the record, I only know 3 mushers not including myself. Link

    Who was it that started NAFTA? Oh yeah, Clinton. Who is it that wants to win the next election? Oh yeah, Clinton. I'm not being political. Any progress toward NAU has been helped along by president Bush. Therefore, this is a "bi-partisan" deal that goes beyond the smokescreen of usual political squabbling. See, that way, we worried about co2 and global warming and Iraq and totally miss the dissolution of our country. And we have both parties to thank for it. It would be easy to blame it all on Bush. But take your pick. Either he can barely tie his shoelaces or he has a better mind for this than one would think. But either way, the groundwork was started with the UN, continues with NAFTA, etc. What about the beginning of this country? It used to be 13 sovereign colonies. And it wouldn't be the first time something happened ex-camera. We used to have the Articles of Confederation. During what was supposed to be a ratifying vote, the Articles of Confederation were scrapped and the Constitution was drafted and ratified without any voting from the voting public, which only happened to be white male landowners at the time, anyway.

    This is a good article debunking the myths of the North American Union:

    Basically, it isn't real, it's a conspiracy theory.

    Inne, you burst the bubble on my fantasy that we could be countrymen. Although I beg forgiveness because I can't remember now whether you did or did not have u.s. citizenship status. Oh well, at least we're both north americans.

    Party!!!

    I have heard reports from both sides.....at this point it seems more of a conspiracy topic that certain folks on the internet and talk radio like to get into....

    I am a US citizen - we are countrymen!   No need for a North American Union to solidify our union.

    Excellent. We may not always agree on something but you are an intelligent person, to say the least.

    I think I was thrown off by your location.
