Advocates of 'continental integration' on defensive

Author and investigative journalist Dr. Jerome Corsi, who attended the recent "North American Leaders Summit" in New Orleans, says public outcry over the controversial issue of continental integration has put supporters of such an idea on the defensive.

Corsi says the recent meeting was, in reality, the fourth annual summit of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP). But the name was changed to the North American Leaders Summit, he alleges, because the public has become all too aware of the agenda of the SPP.

The journalist says President Bush, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, and Mexican President Felipe Calderon even avoided the term during their summit. "The words Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America have become kind of radioactive. I think with the criticism of North American integration and now people being aware that it's happening, you couldn't see the words 'SPP' or 'Security and Prosperity Partnership' anywhere in evidence at the meeting," Corsi points out.

According to Corsi, the American people do not want the SPP to create what amounts to a North American version of the European Union. "You know this globalism initiative, which is being pushed forward in fast gear, is now meeting increasing resistance from the people of the United States," he argues. "And I think this meeting in New Orleans reflected that the three leaders are on the defensive now and [that] people are becoming more aware of their integration plans and are saying no to it."
