Interesting how people claim with religious zeal that Globalism is our destiny and there's nothing we can do to stop it. Invariably it's those who actually promote globalization that make such claims, as for anyone else, its very easy to perceive the value in the alternatives.

Do you believe that at some point in humanity's future, mankind shall be united as a species or do you believe divisional territorial and culture conflicts shall or should perpetuate indefinitely until the end of our time?

Neither - why are those the only options, and even if they were, why should the desire for one imply its inevitability?

I myself reject any agreement that places the Canadian state at an overall disadvantage prior to the agreement. I fully support the sovereignty of Canada but do not honestly believe that Canada as a country will follow humanity to its dying days.

The world has begun shrinking rapidly in the last several hundreds and all the indicators such as the basis for a global government (UN), world language, multi national coalitions, commonality of global culture and customs etc are starting to take root. I suspect in the coming decades this will accelerate and I can only imagine what the possibilities are over the next several centuries.

What you're seeing is a trend, not inevitability. Should globalization not fulfill its promises, that trend won't continue.

Let me break this down in why The NAU is a bad idea.

First of all, let me make a example. If a Airline Company was the only company in existance, had no competition. What is stopping that company from doing whatever they want to the people who want to travel? They can adjust there prices as they see fit, making it ridiculously high. However if they had competition. That competition would be lowering its prices to attract more people to it's. As it does that, the other company will then lower it's prices to stop its customers from switching over and to attract more customers.

Competition keeps everything where it should be. While having a monopoly allows the company to do whatever it pleases.

Now for a fact, let's take both the current U.S. and Canadian Government.
What Bush did in Iraq and Afghanistan was shitty, further more all the secrets he kept from the American people and is still keeping. He pretty much feeds his power hunger and so far nothing has been done to stop it. It was left unti'll his term was ended to get him out of there.

Now for the Canadian Government, Stephen Harpers Government is by far the most secretive government Canada has ever had. He got is into Afghanistan, and further more most of the Canadian population doesn't even know why. Hes in so many scandals, etc. Hes also feeding his power hunger. Doesn't tell us anything about what is going on except for when he wants to say something.

Now, let's assume that we did this NAU Agreement. What's stopping that one leader of NA (Who has a monopoly of NA) from doing whatever he wants? Nothing, by doing NAU you are just setting up a monopoly for the leader of NA and giving him even more power by merging the Canadian and US Economy, resources and Military.

Now, what's stopping that leader from also merging NAU with EU? Again, the answer is nothing. He doesn't have any competition so he can pretty much do anything he wants with us. Remember those ID Cards that pretty much allows the Government to do whatever with your Identity? Guess what it's store for the new NAU ;).

Indeed, what a great idea lol. If NAU does pass however, the only way it would work is if a new system was added where there is no ONE man in charge of the country. It would be several men who votes on actions regarding the country. Setting up competition once again.

A good idea would be to have the same election system in each country. U.S. has theres, Canada has theres, and Mexico has theres. Theres you three leaders right there, who vote on the actions NAU takes as a country.

Actually Cretin got us into Afghanistan through a bit of a sleight of hand. Pretty sneaky how he did that. Needless, Harper has the bit in his mouth now and has no intention of leaving any time soon. As to the coming nau - it is going to be bad, real bad. People feel they have no voice as it is, there will be none in the nau and of course it will mean the end of 3 sovereign nations. I cannot believe that the americans are as apathetic as they are on this one, with us canucks it is to be expected, but I never saw our neighbours sleepwalking into something like this.
