We're from the government, we're here to help…eh.

In a ceremony that received no fanfare (and virtually no publicity), the United States and Canada, on Feb. 14th, have signed an agreement to allow the military from one to "assist" the other during a "domestic civil emergency". This means that in the event of a natural disaster, terrorist attack, or civil unrest, we could have Canadian soldiers in our country telling us what to do and enforcing the orders of their Canadian or American superiors. Wonder how long it'll take our government to sign the same agreement with the Mexican army (widely known for their integrity). I also wonder just what "domestic civil emergency" the rocket scientists in the Pentagon are expecting. Oh, and Congress had no say in this "agreement" whatsoever. I know that'll surprise some of you.

The first link is to an article on this from WorldNetDaily and the second is to the US Northern Command web-site that talks a little bit about the agreement:

Our President is just a puppet doing what he is told to do. This country is run by bankers not congress.

JF Kennedy tried to save our country by minting silver Kennedy half dollars and printing Silver Certificates because the federal reserve, with the help of Pres. FDR, took away our Gold and Gold Certificates. Kennedy was assassinated and the first thing that the Vice Pesident, LB Johsnon did was melt down the Kennedy half dollars and destroyed the silver certificates making it a crime to hoard silver.

After LBJ left office he died shortly of a heart attack. I don't think he could live with what he had done. LBJ had turned our silver certificates into federal reserve notes as President JF Kennedy was being buried.

Now you know the rest of the story!

Well, of course congress didn't have a say in this. Our leader doesn't ask for anyone's opinion and if anyone doesn't agree he does what he wants anyway. When a reporter asked Cheney how he felt when people in this country were really unhappy with a lot of the decisions that the white house made, his comment was, "So What!" and that's all there is to say about this administrations feelings for the opinions of the people. So What.

I'm a new voice, just an American Sovereign who has read supreme court rulings to find out what my rights are.

In my search I have uncovered Unique-Lies that the 3 branches of Government have come up with.

My believe is that if the Gov gives you something for nothing better look for smallpox on your blanket. That includes a check this year from the IRS.

Why the hell would the government issue everyone a check for nothing when they have never paid anyone back for all the other robberies they did in the past.

They want you to file so they can say you volunteered to pay Taxes which an American doesn't have to pay unless they received the money from the government, like gov employees for example or you accept a check for $300 or more from the IRS.

I can't wait til next year when tax time comes to see just how the Gov is gonna screw the people who thought they were getting something for nothing this year.

Keep your fingers crossed!

Ok, Unique-Lies, I've gotta ask you. Are you a C2CAM listener? It's got to be either that or Alex. But I like the way you think.

Laws are being enacted today that will eventually make protesting a Gov issue an act of terrorism against the country. It is then that you will see the Canadian Troops at your door step to take your weapons away from you and arrest you for acts of terrorism. It has nothing to do with flu vacine or health care. While our sons/daughters/fathers/mothers who are in the service, raid some civilian's home, Canadian troops will be raidng their Homes.

The US Constitution prohibits American and foreign troops in our country as police forces. You say it in New Orleans

when they asked for help. Did they get help or robbed of the homes and pocessions, and especially their weapons?

It's funny how we reach out to them for military mingling, but refuse to let them import cheaper, SAFE, and effective drugs... LOL.. [corporate greed?] What happened to "capitalism"?

We are so far behind them in many areas, but if you've never ventured above the border, of course it's all a relative. Seeing is believing, and trust me, it is an amazing place, other than the extreme cold that I can't constantly live in.

I don't see a problem with this. Considering the US military has recruitment problems as it is and we've got a good chunk of our military resources in the Middle East, it's nice to know we'll have help if something happens in the US. I happen to think the Canadians get a few things right anyway (National Healthcare, anyone?) so if a tornado knocked down my house I'd be happy to see them.

When the crazed mad man Hitler decided to take over the world in WWII, our govnt with FDR as president made it extremely hard to get into the USA. Because of the economy (depression) and war, our government safeguarded our nation by more efficient border control. There was a tight cap on how many could come at a time. In order to get to America, not only would you have to have a visa, but you would have to have a written sworn affidavit by an American citizen that they know you--have a connection with you--and that you would not sponge off of the government but get a JOB (join the payroll taxes which benefits the Social Security & Medicare Accounts)and obey the laws of our land and pay your own way like everyone else. They also deported many a Jap...had American concentration camps for the enemys to live at...in order to protect not only the citizens from bodily harm, but from terrorist attacks and from damaging our economy. So, I do not understand why we are so overpopulated with all these different cultures who do not want to bend to the AMERICAN foundation our forefathers so fiercely fought for and developed against all odds. American citizens in my opinion have become ignorant to the laws, rights, and democracy that our forefathers developed in order to protect us from what is happening to this country as we breathe. Americans need to stand up to congress and fight for our rights as stated in the constitution.

"we could have Canadian soldiers in our country telling us what to do and enforcing the orders of their Canadian or American superiors. "

My mom is Canadian, so I've been having Canadians tell me what to do my whole life - I suppose this wouldn't be much different except those particular Canadians wouldn't be related to me.

"We're from the government, we're here to help"

Yeah right! Help yourselves to take away my rights, more of MY money and whatever else I worked hard to have...Y'all just run on along back to your office and you Canadians go back to the great White North. I'll be fine here with my freezer full of food, plenty of ammunition , rifles, shotguns, handguns, plus if I run out of food I'll make my own.

THANKS, BUT NO THANKS!

This is the beginning of the North American Union, the dissolution of our sovereignty and a major step in our land toward the New World Order. Scary stuff! Thanks Thom for posting this.

Hmm, so I wonder why the supposed "Commander-in-chief" who labels himself the "decider" not sign this? Or am I missing something? ...

This is odd at best, but then again our troops go into other soverign nations and tell those people what to do without the consent or will of the people. I guess it's only objectionable if it happens to us? No, Thom I am not saying you said any of this, just speaking from the article and exactly what I think it portrays.
