The Secret Superhighway
and the Homogenization of North America
20
Facts That Show How NAFTA Is Destroying The Economy. It amazes me how the American
people can fall for the same lies over and over again. The lies that serial liar Barack Obama is
telling about "free trade" and the globalization of the economy are the same lies that Bill Clinton
was telling back in the early 1990s. [...] Many Americans like to remember Bill Clinton as a "great
president" for some reason. Well, it turns out that he was completely and totally wrong about NAFTA.
It's back: Texas in 'Super Highway' deal with Spain.
Believe it or not, the Trans-Texas Corridor is back. Very quietly, Gov. Rick Perry and the Texas Department of Transportation, or TxDOT, signed
in October a comprehensive development agreement to construct a toll-road redevelopment of Interstate 35 north of downtown Fort Worth.
Obama quietly erasing borders.
Acting quietly, below the radar of U.S. public opinion and without congressional approval, the Obama
administration is implementing a key policy objective of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North
America, or SPP, to erase the border with Mexico and Canada. The administration is acting under a State
Department-declared policy initiative described in a March 23 fact sheet titled "United States-Mexico
Partnership: A New Border Vision."
The Prerequisite Conditions Needed
for Civil War II. [Scroll down] For me, the tree of knowledge and awareness opened when John McCain and friends attempted to steal
my property and 300 of my neighbor's properties, without a dime of compensation, to make way for the CANAMEX Highway system. From there, I
learned about the North American Union and how NAFTA and CAFTA gave away American sovereignty and jobs. Then the flood gates of information
opened up and I saw the true nature of the beast that has absconded with our Republic.
State
ends Trans-Texas Corridor project. The Texas Department of Transportation has ended the
Trans-Texas Corridor, Gov. Rick Perry's embattled plan to build a toll-road network across the state.
The agency said earlier this year it was scaling down the project and dropping the name "Trans-Texas
Corridor." Now, transportation officials say it's dead.
TxDOT
announces end to Trans-Texas Corridor. The Texas Department of Transportation announced
Wednesday [10/7/2009] it will literally wipe a segment of the Trans-Texas Corridor planned alongside
Interstate 35 off the map. Since 2002, the proposed right-of-way that stretched 600 miles
from Laredo through North Texas and onto the Red River angered property owners whose land was in the way,
which ultimately led to the project's death.
State spent $15 million before Trans-Texas
Corridor's demise. While the Trans-Texas Corridor project officially hit a dead end Wednesday,
the $15 million spent by the state on planning for the ambitious project did not go to waste, state
officials said. The Texas Department of Transportation formally announced that it does not intend
to build the $184 billion system of toll roads, rail lines and utilities across the state.
Corridor project may be dead, but
spending thrives. Texas already has spent close to $60 million on the recommended-for-death
parallel to Interstate 35 once envisioned as part of the Trans-Texas Corridor. More
money — perhaps millions more — will be spent as Texas closes the environmental
review process and gets public comment on the recommendation to the federal government, state transportation
officials said Wednesday [10/7/2009].
Trans-Texas Corridor plans dropped after
public outcry. The ambitious proposal to create the Trans-Texas Corridor network has been dropped
in response to public outcry and will be replaced with a plan to carry out road projects at an incremental,
modest pace, state officials said Tuesday. ... The Legislature, [Amadeo] Saenz said, has made it clear TxDOT
must change and become more accountable and transparent. The renewed effort now will operate under the
name "Innovative Connectivity in Texas" to usher in a new method of operation, Saenz said.
Trans
Texas Corridor is dead, TxDOT says. After six years of bold plans, big talk and fierce pushback,
the Texas Department of Transportation announced Tuesday [1/6/2009] that the Trans-Texas Corridor is dead,
burying with it Gov. Rick Perry's visionary but controversial idea to string the state together with some
4,000 miles of highways, toll roads and rail lines.
Is the Trans-Texas Corridor dead?
Texas Gov. Rick Perry is attempting to engage in a public relations effort designed to distance the Texas
Department of Transportation, or TxDOT, from a massive network of toll roads known as the Trans-Texas Corridor,
Jerome Corsi's Red Alert contends. "The days of the Trans-Texas Corridor are over, it's finished up,"
Perry said speaking with U.S. reporters on a conference call during his visit to Iraq last week.
Trans Texas Corridor Renamed, Not Dead.
A familiar plant along Texas roadways is the prickly pear cactus. It sports the most beautiful flowers when in
bloom, but the most wicked thorns imaginable. ... So it goes with the Trans Texas Corridor (TTC), the first leg of a
planned superhighway meant to bring Chinese goods into the United States via Mexican ports — bypassing
more expensive American ports and workers.
North
American Union: Conspiracy or Cover-Up? The elites, however, must be feeling the heat.
Following the Hudson Institute's helpful suggestion to change the name of the Security and Prosperity Partnership,
the fourth annual SPP meeting to be held in New Orleans on April 21 will now be called the North American
Leaders Summit, and the promoters of the TransTexas Corridor are trying to change its name to "regional
loop." To see what the elites are planning, you don't have peek through keyholes or plant a spy under
the table. Just read their published reports.
Security and Prosperity
Partnership (SPP) Meeting in New Orleans. Prominent public policy activists opposing a North American Union
(NAU) among the United States, Canada, and Mexico will challenge President Bush's avowed intention to economically integrate
the three countries when Mr. Bush meets in New Orleans on April 21 and 22 with the heads of Mexico and Canada.
Harper arrives in New Orleans for
North American summit with Bush, Calderon. Prime Minister Stephen Harper arrived in New Orleans on Monday [4/21/2008]
for the North American leaders' summit. Harper was greeted on arrival by Canadian Ambassador Michael Wilson and
New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin. Schoolchildren and a jazz band were also on hand to welcome the prime minister.
Harper is joining U.S. President George W. Bush and Mexican President Felipe Calderon in historic New Orleans for
the fourth North American summit.
North American leaders meet on NAFTA.
The leaders of Canada, Mexico and the United States were meeting here Monday for an annual summit with the North American Free
Trade Agreement taking center stage, amid criticism of the pact in the US presidential race. As US President George W.
Bush meets with his Mexican counterpart, Felipe Calderon, and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, US unions and Democratic
White House hopefuls have lambasted the three countries' free trade agreement. Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton,
who are battling for the Democratic nomination, have warned that they are willing to re-negotiate parts of the agreement if
elected in November.
Bush Administration Quietly Plans NAFTA
Super Highway. Quietly but systematically, the Bush Administration is advancing the plan to
build a huge NAFTA Super Highway, four football-fields-wide, through the heart of the U.S. along
Interstate 35, from the Mexican border at Laredo, Tex., to the Canadian border north of
Duluth, Minn.
Papers Reveal Plans for 'North
American Union'. Judicial Watch this week released documents obtained through a Freedom of
Information Act request that include U.S. officials' notes from the North American Forum, a September 2006
meeting with Canadian and Mexican officials that explored ways to create "genuine partnerships." … Several
points of discussion at the September meeting worried Judicial Watch, most notably a note in one set of
documents referring to "evolution by stealth."
Super suspicious foes. If
the government really has a secret plan for a 12-lane road-and-rail NAFTA Superhighway that will split the
heartland from Mexico to Canada, it is playing with a great poker face. "There is absolutely no U.S.
government plan for a NAFTA Superhighway of any sort," said David Bohigian, an assistant secretary of commerce.
Sen. Kit Bond, a Missouri Republican and a powerful member of committees that would authorize and pay for a NAFTA
Superhighway, if one were being planned, dismissed the notion as "unfounded theories" with "no credence."
Bush's Legacy: A New World Disorder.
The fact has been ignored by the major media, but when the Senate immigration bill collapsed in June, congressional
approval of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), the federal scheme to bring the U.S., Canada and
Mexico together in a trilateral entity, went down with it. An after-the-fact endorsement of this scheme
had been inserted into the Senate immigration bill by parties unknown. The White House was most likely
behind this stealth attempt to get Congress to approve the SPP, which forms the basis for a North American
Union (NAU).
Bush
refuses to deny that there is a North American agenda. The three-nation summit at Montebello,
Quebec, was held behind closed doors, well guarded behind an intimidating fence and plenty of police, but the
news conference that followed on Aug. 21 revealed more than the three heads of state had planned.
President George W. Bush, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, and Mexican President Felipe Calderon
all refused to deny that the Security and Prosperity Partnership is a stepping stone toward a North American
Union.
Security and Prosperity Partnership: With virtually
no mention in the mainstream media and no oversight from Congress, Commerce Secretary Carlos M. Gutierrez
is pushing forward, through his department, the "working groups" that are currently implementing this plan.
Government bureaucrats and business leaders are "harmonizing and integrating" our laws with Mexico and Canada on
a broad range of issues such as E-Commerce, Transportation, Environment, Health, Agriculture, Financial Services,
and National Security just to mention a few. Do we want our laws "harmonized" with Socialist Canada and
corrupt Mexico?
Landowners protest Trans-Texas
Corridor. People board decorated tractors, trucks, carry posters for parade
downtown The Texas Department of Transportation held another hearing last night about the
proposed Trans-Texas Corridor. Before last night's meeting at the Trinity High School
gym, people boarded decorated tractors and trucks for a parade downtown. Many made
posters displaying their anger about the proposed superhighway. Landowners say the
highway would divide their county in half and cost them about 5800 acres of land.
TxDOT gives up on toll financing for Trans Texas Corridor
69. In a further retreat before anti-road activists and a hostile legislature Texas Department
of Transportation (TxDOT) has abandoned Trans Texas Corridor 69, acknowledged there will be no significant
toll financing, and abandoned consideration of any new routing. Only existing surface arterial roads
will be upgraded. TxDOT is increasingly dropping use of the prefix TTC (Trans Texas Corridor) and
using the term I-69 for the road, though much of the road will never meet interstate standards.
Scholars explain president's plan for a North
American Union. Those who seek to understand what's behind the chatter about President George W.
Bush's Security and Prosperity Partnership as a possible prelude to a North American Union, similar to the European
Union, should read the 35-page White Paper published recently by the Hudson Institute called "Negotiating North
America: The Security and Prosperity Partnership." The Washington, D.C., think tank is blunt and
detailed in describing where the Security and Prosperity Partnership is heading.
Spokeswoman dodges question about NAFTA
Superhighways. President Bush is comfortable when the United States, Mexico and Canada work
together on issues facing the continent, according to spokeswoman Dana Perino, even though Congress is
considering a warning that the nation's sovereignty could be threaten by such efforts.
Highway Robbery: Amidst a firestorm of
opposition to the Trans Texas Corridor the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) held the second annual
Texas Transportation Forum on Wednesday, July 18 through Friday, July 20 [2007] at the downtown
Hilton in Austin, Texas. … Most attendees were there to promote their various business interests, but many
were there to facilitate building the super-corridor system needed to make possible the North American
Union — a merger of the United States, Canada, and Mexico into a single economic, political, military,
educational, and cultural entity.
Texas commission adopts hostile policy on toll concessions.
Texas Transportation Commission (TTC) adopted a hostile policy to toll concessions at their monthly meeting today. The
state's policymaking body unanimously passed a Minute Order of Guiding Principles for Toll Projects and the Trans-Texas
Corridor which contains a complete prohibition on non-compete clauses in toll concession projects, generally termed
Comprehensive Development Agreements or CDAs in Texas. Officials say compensation for unanticipated competing free
capacity will also be barred. Further TxDOT will have the right to buy out concessions "at any time" on terms left
unspecified.
Bush gives away
the farm — and the highway, too. Let's be clear — this is one more rotten fruit
of the NAFTA tree. It is that treaty, devised by Bush's father and shepherded by President
Clinton, which said that roads in Canada, the United States and Mexico must be open to carriers from
all three countries. Canada unfortunately already has full and total access to the U.S. trucking
market, and now it looks like Mexico will follow.
Perry's Trans-Texas
Corridor plan is a hard sell. Gov. Rick Perry's ambitious Trans-Texas Corridor
plan, and his advocacy of toll funding for future roads, hit the skids in a skeptical
Legislature last spring. The road shows no signs of getting any smoother as state
transportation officials try to sell the plan to Houston-area audiences.
Trusted traveler toll road system means
the government will decide if and where you travel. NAFTA
Superhighway RFID Card For US Citizens. US citizens will be forced to adopt a de facto
national identification card and have their freedom of mobility defined by behavioural fielty to the
government under proposals set to derive from NAFTA superhighway toll road systems and the implementation of
the American Union. Existing toll road systems operational at US borders such as SENTRI/NEXUS and the
FAST program mandate that passing vehicles are enrolled in RFID passive tracking and identification programs
linked to central databases.
Protesters object to North American
alliance. About 40 flag-waving protesters gathered in the rain Saturday [11/17/2007] to
oppose what they foresee as an erosion of American sovereignty as the United States, Mexico and Canada
form closer ties. The March for America gathering at 40th and Summitview avenues in Yakima was one
of nine around the country, including Atlanta, Houston, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
Perry's push for super
highway raises conspiracy buzz. [Governor] Perry enhanced the conspiracy buzz
earlier this summer by traveling to Turkey to attend the secretive Bilderberg conference, which
conspiracy theorists believe is a cabal of international monied interests and power brokers
pressing for globalization. And the conspiracy rhetoric is likely to ratchet up this week
as President Bush meets with Mexican President Felipe Calderon and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen
Harper in Quebec in their third summit to discuss North American relations under the Security
and Prosperity Partnership.
Highway Robbery: Rick Perry's vision for Texas, the
Trans Texas Corridor, made it through the State Legislature in 2003. H.B. 3588, the enabling bill
for the Trans Texas Corridor and, hence, the largest spending bill in the state's history, became law in large
part because Texas' mainstream press, used as a watchdog, was inexplicably asleep.
Selling Out America: On
August 20-21, in Montebello, Quebec, secure behind a cordon of fifteen miles maintained by the Canadian
Mounted Police, Security Quebec, and reportedly even the U.S. Army, the leaders of America, Mexico, and Canada
will meet to further discuss the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) and, no doubt, the Trans-Texas
Corridor (TTC). … Connect the dots between SPP and TTC and what you get are Americans expected to buy cheap
goods while their own economic structure and security disappears along with their borders with Mexico and
Canada.
The three amigos, erasing borders?
Promoters of the Security and Prosperity Partnership, chief among them Robert Pastor, a professor who worked in
the Carter administration and has advised Democratic presidential candidates since, have already named the
currency — the "amero" — they expect to one day find in the well-picked pockets of Americans.
Goodbye
America, Hello North American Union. In a month, August 20 and 21, the leaders of the United
States, Canada, and Mexico will sit down together in Montebello, Quebec to discuss making the borders between
these three nations disappear. They will also discuss progress on a vast highway project passing through
America to link Mexico with Canada. So far, no one has asked the citizens of these three nations whether
they want to do this. It is not up for a vote in Congress and, indeed, Congress has no supervision over
the gnomes in the U.S. Department of Commerce who are busily "harmonizing" the laws under the auspices of the
Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP).
North American union plan headed to Congress
in fall. A powerful think tank chaired by former Sen. Sam Nunn and guided by trustees including
Richard Armitage, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Harold Brown, William Cohen and Henry Kissinger, is in the final stages
of preparing a report to the White House and U.S. Congress on the benefits of integrating the U.S., Mexico and
Canada into one political, economic and security bloc.
Upcoming
Meeting Fuels 'North American Union' Fears. The Aug. 20-21 meeting is the fourth in a series of
meetings among the leaders of the three countries as part of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), a
"trilateral effort to increase security and enhance prosperity … through greater cooperation and
information sharing." The first meeting took place in 2005 in Waco, Texas.
Texas governor clears way for NAFTA
superhighway. The way was opened [for the Trans-Texas Corridor] when Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a
Republican, vetoed a series of proposals the Texas Legislature assembled to slow down the work on what is
considered to be a key link in a continental NAFTA superhighway network. Perry's latest veto was of a
plan to add a number of requirements to the Texas eminent-domain procedures, under which governments can
grab and use private property.
NAFTA Superhighway: Highroad To National Oblivion?
As author Jerome Corsi describes this Fox-Bush autobahn, container ships from China would unload at Lazaro Cardenas, a port
named for the Mexican president who nationalized all U.S. oil companies in 1938. From there, trucks with Mexican
drivers would run fast lines into the United States, hauling their cargo to a U.S. customs inspection terminal -- in
Kansas City, Mo. From there, the trucks would fan out across America or roll on into Canada. Similar
superhighways from Mexico through the United States into Canada are planned. According to Corsi, construction
of the Trans-Texas Corridor, the first leg of the NAFTA superhighway, is to begin next year.
AU and NAU: Evidence
shows that NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement involving the U.S., Canada and Mexico, is being
expanded without congressional approval or oversight as part of a plan to create an economic and political
entity known as the North American Union (NAU). Federal documents uncovered by Judicial Watch quote
participants in the scheme as saying that an "evolution by stealth" strategy is being used to put the pieces
into place. Documents also speak of developing a common security perimeter and a common identification
card for citizens of the three countries.
Progress in the Fight to Stop NAU and NAFTA
Superhighway. A tiny but determined band of organizations and individuals are standing up to
Goliath and are beginning to see his knees wobble. Goliath is the globalist-inspired Security and
Prosperity Partnership (SPP) — better known as the North American Union (NAU) and the Trans
Texas Corridor (TCC) — also know as the NAFTA Highway. To date a dozen states have introduced
resolutions to oppose the SPP and the NAU. Some states have also included language to oppose creation of
a new currency called the Amero. Also opposed in most of the resolutions is the super highway (TCC) to
run from Laredo, Texas all the way to Kansas City and more.
Immigration Bill Advances North American Union.
Rep. Edward Royce, a high-ranking conservative California Republican, said [in late April 2007] that a White
House-backed amnesty plan for illegal aliens has provisions which undermine the national sovereignty of the
U.S. and help facilitate development of a North American Union, much like the European Union that supersedes
the sovereignty of 27 European countries.
NAFTA Superhighway Has
Giuliani As Key Player. The Trans-Texas Corridor is the biggest and most massive highway building
project of them all and for the first time will rely upon a foreign entity to not only maintain toll roads but
to have a stake in building, controlling operations and tolls and expanding new roads and critical
infrastructure. Additionally, eminent domain law will come into play in order to reconcile the taking
of property and farmland for road expansion to accommodate pipelines and railroad tracks.
Feds threaten Texas over
superhighway funds plan. The Federal Highway Administration has threatened Texas with
the loss of federal highway funds if the state continues with its legislative plan for a two-year
funding moratorium on construction of the Trans-Texas Corridor.
Chertoff, Gutierrez, Rice: Plotting Bush's North
American Union. In a March letter to his supporters, Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.), who has
led the fight on Capitol Hill for border and immigration law enforcement since he went there in 1999, said:
"I am now convinced that the President's true objective is the absorption of the United States into some sort of
borderless 'North American Union' with Canada and Mexico. "That's why they have done nothing to secure
our borders. That's why they seek to grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. That's why
they're building a massive 'North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Superhighway,' which will speed
foreign goods and labor from Mexico into the heart of America and up into Canada."
NAFTA Super Highway Faces Scrutiny.
By now many Americans have heard about the proposed "NAFTA Super Highway," which is also referred to as the
trans-Texas corridor. What you may not know is the extent to which plans for such a superhighway are
moving forward without congressional oversight or media attention. This superhighway would connect
Mexico, the United States, and Canada, cutting a wide swath through the middle of Texas and up through
Kansas City.
The NAFTA Superhighway: By now
many Texans have heard about the proposed "NAFTA Superhighway," which is also referred to as the trans-Texas
corridor. What you may not know is the extent to which plans for such a superhighway are moving forward
without congressional oversight or media attention.
Where will this highway
take the U.S.? Though this effort is in its infancy, the plans are to establish a NAFTA
Superhighway, to be the width of eight football fields. It will eventually run from Mexico to Canada,
through the middle of the United States. … the project threatens the safety, security and sovereignty of
America in the name of globalization and unfettered free trade. It is not too late to stop this
thing, if the people of the United States, believing in the Constitution, make their voices heard in
Washington, D.C.
The Coming North American Parliament.
Robert Pastor, a top Democratic Party foreign policy specialist associated with the Panama Canal giveaway ...
said that he favors a "North American Community," not a formal union of the three countries. Wearing a
lapel pin featuring the flags of the U.S., Canada and Mexico, Pastor told AIM that he favors a $200-billion
North American Investment Fund to pull Mexico out of poverty and a national biometric identity card for the
purpose of controlling the movement of people in and out of the U.S. So the "conspiracy" is now very
much out in the open, if only the media would pay some attention to it.
Texans fear US
sovereignty will disappear down superhighway. Opposition is strongest in Texas, where the state's
plans for a vast road project, known as the Trans-Texas Corridor, are well advanced. Once complete, the
corridor could become the first leg of a Nafta Superhighway, crossing the Mexican border at the Rio Grande,
near Laredo, and then pushing north to Kansas.
North American Union leader says
merger just a crisis away. Robert Pastor, a leading intellectual force in the move to create
an EU-style North American Community, told WND he believes a new 9/11 crisis could be the catalyst to merge
the U.S., Mexico and Canada.
Toward a
North American Union. The global elite, through the direct operations of President George Bush
and his Administration, are creating a North American Union that will combine Canada, Mexico and the U.S. into
a superstate called the North American Union (NAU). The NAU is roughly patterned after the European
Union (EU). There is no political or economic mandate for creating the NAU, and unofficial polls
of a cross-section of Americans indicate that they are overwhelmingly against this end-run around
national sovereignty.
Scanning the News about North American
Integration. Rep. Virgil Goode (VA), Rep. Ron Paul (TX), Rep. Walter Jones (NC), and Rep. Tom
Tancredo (CO) introduced House Concurrent Resolution 487 — Expressing the sense of Congress
that the United States should not engage in the construction of a North American Free Trade
Agreement (NAFTA) Superhighway System or enter into a North American Union with Mexico and Canada.
Congressman: Superhighway about
North American Union. Rep. Ron Paul, a maverick Republican from Texas, today denounced plans for
the proposed "NAFTA superhighway" in his state as part of a larger plot for merger of the U.S., Canada and
Mexico into a North American Union. "By now many Texans have heard about the proposed 'NAFTA
Superhighway,' which is also referred to as the trans-Texas corridor," he said in a statement. "What
you may not know is the extent to which plans for such a superhighway are moving forward without
congressional oversight or media attention."
Illegal aliens and the secret monster
highway. There is underway a secret, under-the-radar, plan for a north-south super-highway
spanning three countries — from Mexico through the United States and into Canada. This is
part of a long-range scheme by internationalists ultimately to form a North American Union similar
in structure to the European Union. The word "secret" is used advisedly. The plan is
regionalized, mostly in Texas. A lot of Texans do know about it, but few of them know the
whole story because the project is being built in increments so as to keep it off the national
radar screen of most, if not all, the mainstream media.
U.S. Borders: Going-Going-Gone! Readers
of the AIM Report are accustomed to learning of huge distortions or omissions by the media. This time,
the under-reported story deals with the possible end of America, as we know it. Major players are
secretive and are trying to keep the media out of the loop. But that does not let the mainstream media
off the hook. There is enough stonewalling, secrecy and there are plenty of telltale signs, so that any
assignment editor whose curiosity is not aroused is probably in the wrong business.
Constitutional Lawyers
... Where Are You? In addition to the KC SmartPort, there are other signed agreements with
foreign governments for the CANAMEX corridor, and the Trans-Texas-Corridor (TTC-35). There exists many
more signatories since there are some 80 super-corridor projects planned and in motion across the country.
All these projects are aimed at creating the North American Union without ANY congressional oversight in
violation of our Constitution.
Political-military-industrial
elite agenda to merge Canada, the U.S., and Mexico. CNN's Lou Dobbs reports that newspapers and
other media in Canada are referring to, as innocent on-going consultations to combat "terrorism" and promote
"co-operation" among U.S., Canadian, and Mexican political elites, are actually not so innocent. Talks
that are being officially labelled as "Security and Prosperity Partnership" (SPP), are really aimed at destroying
the independent sovereignty of the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, under the cover provided by the "War on Terror".
Elites who are linked to a industrial-military complex, are seeking to further consolidate a "North American
Union" that is to be run by them.
Audit:
Few expected to use TTC tollway. The projected toll for the TTC-35 are among the highest in the
nation at $0.125 per mile per car and $0.48 per mile per 5-axle truck, according to a table included with the
audit. The 333-mile trip from Oklahoma to San Antonio would cost $41.63 for a passenger vehicle, with a
truck-tractor semi-trailer paying $159.84. ... Although [Governor] Perry has pushed for the Trans-Texas Corridor
by citing immediate, pressing needs, TxDOT's own projections seem to indicate the TTC-35 will not take the
burden off of I-35.
North American Union Threat Gets
the Attention of Congressmen. While several members of Congress have denied any knowledge of
efforts to build "NAFTA superhighways" or move America closer to a union with Mexico and Canada, four members
of the House have stepped up to sponsor a resolution opposing both initiatives.
Texas newspapers sold to Australian
interests. Macquarie, an Australian investment consortium involved in leasing U.S. toll roads,
has begun acquiring newspapers in Texas, a move critics say is designed to silence grassroots objection to the
planned Trans-Texas Corridor. That highway project is believed to be part of a much larger plan that
eventually could, critics allege, tie the economies, lifestyles and even governments of the United States,
Mexico and Canada together.
America Deconstructed by
Transnationals. The objective of the transnational right is the piece-meal deconstruction of our
sovereign Republic in expectation of dissolving our nation into a supranational macro-organization comprised
of Canada, the United States, and Mexico. This suprastate — or as George Bush, Sr. called it,
"the world's first completely democratic hemisphere" — is to be called the North American Union,
and will be built on the model of the European Union.
Stop "NAFTA Plus" by Repealing
NAFTA. A growing number of Americans have already been alerted about plans to create a North
American Union (NAU), merging the United States, Mexico, and Canada. While news of this monstrous
betrayal has yet to reach most fellow citizens, widespread awareness about the enormous harm caused by NAFTA
already exists. Closed factories, lost jobs, more open borders, even judicial panels overruling
U.S. court decisions are NAFTA's legacy. Now, the newly crafted NAU, rightly dubbed "NAFTA Plus," is
being steered toward enactment by some of the very same people who gave us NAFTA in the first place.
'Bush doesn't think America should
be an actual place'. "People have to understand what we're talking about here. The president
of the United States is an internationalist," said Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo. "He is going to do what he
can to create a place where the idea of America is just that — it's an idea. It's not an actual
place defined by borders. I mean this is where this guy is really going." Tancredo lashed out at
the White House's lack of action in securing U.S. borders, and said efforts to merge the U.S. with both
Mexico and Canada is not a fantasy.
Media
blackout on the dangerous CFR. President Bush and Congress have implemented a plan to create
a North American Union, which will become an open border policy between the United States, Canada and
Mexico. This is a plan, similar to the European Union, in which the security (primarily from the ocean
borders), infrastructure, laws and economies of the three countries will become intertwined, with the United
States citizens paying, not only monetarily, but also with our freedom and our sovereignty. We will have
the shell of our Constitution with international laws controlling it.
North American Trade and Wildlife
Corridors. As an extension of NAFTA, a massive 12-lane highway system is being built to link
Canada, Mexico and the United States as a free trade "region". A part of the North American Super
Corridor will be a network of "inland ports" which will eliminate the need for customs at the existing
borders. In addition to the trade corridor, a wildlife corridor is planned to "protect" wildlife
habitats from human interference. See how these two corridors fit together.
Texas Segment of NAFTA Super Highway Nears
Construction. The Trans-Texas Corridor is ready to begin construction in 2007, building the first
segment of what is planned to be a NAFTA Super Highway stretching from Mexico to Canada. … The NAFTA
Super Highway is planned to begin at Laredo, Texas, proceeding north to Kansas City via Oklahoma City, and
ultimately connecting with Canadian limited-access highways north of Duluth, Minn.
On the other hand... Official says NAFTA Super Super Highway
is an urban myth. Minnesota Department of Transportation's John Bray says he's heard
all about the internet article boasting the Bush Administration's plans to build a Super Highway from Mexico
to Canada. "This thing has no credibility at least as far as our agency is concerned."
Investors Push NAFTA
Super-Highways. What is objectionable is the plan to form a European Union-style North American
Super-Highway system whose primary goal is to establish trilateral links for the open passage of freight
transportation and the virtually unrestrained "migration" of people among the three countries. Building
NAFTA Super-Highways that effectively erase the U.S. borders with Mexico and Canada is a concern, especially
if the NAFTA Super-Highways contribute to accomplishing in a de facto manner the integration of the United
States into a North American Union, thereby threatening the currently established sovereignty of the United States.
North American Union to
Replace USA? President Bush is pursuing a globalist agenda to create a North
American Union, effectively erasing our borders with both Mexico and Canada. This was
the hidden agenda behind the Bush administration's true open borders policy. … What the Bush
administration truly wants is the free, unimpeded movement of people across open borders with
Mexico and Canada.
President Quietly Creating 'NAFTA
Plus'. Without announcing his intentions to do so, President Bush has decided to support the
creation of a North American Union through a process of governmental regulations, never having to bring the
issue before the American people for a clear referendum or vote.
The Plan to Replace the Dollar With
the 'Amero'. The idea to form the North American Union as a super-NAFTA knitting together
Canada, the United States and Mexico into a super-regional political and economic entity was a key agreement
resulting from the March 2005 meeting held at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, between President Bush,
President Fox and Prime Minister Martin.
Foreign Control of U.S. Interstates
Encouraged by Feds. The anticipated widening and extension of the Trans-Texas Corridor which
runs 316 miles and parallel to I-35 in Texas, is slated to be built by Cintra, the Spanish company, and Zachry
Construction, out of San Antonio, TX, who plan to invest $7.2 billion.
Red China Opens NAFTA Ports in
Mexico. The Port Authority of San Antonio has been working actively with the Communist Chinese to
open and develop NAFTA shipping ports in Mexico. The plan is to ship containers of cheap goods produced
by under-market labor in China and the Far East into North America via Mexican ports.
Working
to kill America. The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America, "a trilateral effort
to increase security and enhance prosperity among the United States, Canada and Mexico through greater
cooperation and information sharing," was launched March 2005 — in Texas. The premise of the
near-treason is that the SPP hopes to unite this republic, Mexico and Canada in a near-suicide pact….
The NAFTA
super highway: This is a "mind-boggling concept," exploded Lou Dobbs. It must cause
Americans to think our political and academic elites have "gone utterly mad." What had detonated the
mild-mannered CNN anchor? Dr. Robert Pastor, vice chair of the Council on Foreign Relations Task Force
on North America, had just appeared before a panel of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations — to
call for erasing all U.S. borders and a merger of the United States, Mexico and Canada in a North
American union stretching from Prudhoe Bay to Guatemala.
Do
we really need a massive, foreign-owned toll road system in Texas? No. Gov. Rick Perry and
his special interest crowd at the Capitol are not listening to the people of Texas. At 55 hearings across
the state, thousands of hard-working Texans said, "No," to Perry's still secret deal with a foreign company to
build toll roads across Texas. The governor and his transportation officials insist on going forward with
his Trans-Texas Corridor, the largest land grab in Texas history — seizing half a million acres of
private property.
Taxpayer dollars
support U.S.-Mexico merger plot. The master plan for merging the U.S., Mexico and Canada is
being devised in American University's Center for North American Studies whose faculty is subsidized by
the U.S. State Department through the Fulbright Program.
Trans-Texas Corridor paved with
campaign contributions? The contractors building the Trans-Texas Corridor — a massive
statewide transportation network critics claim is an important part of the controversial proposed integration
of the U.S. and Mexico — have made large contributions to the campaigns of Texas politicians,
including Republican Gov. Rick Perry.
Bill
Would Kill Perry's Trans-Texas Corridor Plan. A legislator from San Antonio has filed a bill to
kill G-O-P Gov. Rick Perry's Trans-Texas Corridor toll road proposal. Perry spokesman Robert Black today
[1/26/2007] said the governor will fight the anti-corridor measure.
Houston on
tollways: We have no problem. Maybe success was predictable for Houston toll roads, which got
an 18-year head start on the Austin tollways opening next month. The 108-mile tollway system last year
turned a $137 million profit, and more than 1 million cars are driving around Greater Houston with
EZ Tags, the electronic windshield sticker that allows drivers to pay without cash and without slowing
down.
Toll roads are a
dishonest way to raise our taxes. The plan to make new lanes on Highway 288 subject to toll
fees amounts to nothing more than passing the buck. We hope taxpayers — better yet
voters — are smart enough to see the Texas Department of Transportation's plan to make most of all
new highway projects toll roads for what it is: an in-our-faces consequence of government attempting to
sneak through a tax increase.
The TTC is an all around bad
idea for Texas. It's designed to generate revenue first and provide transportation second.
The Corridor plan is designed to provide transportation funds, more than transportation. Rather than identify
specific transportation needs and offer solutions, the Plan defines funding as the need and the Corridor as the
solution. Accordingly it's not important where the Corridor is built, as long as it generates revenue.
North American Union Isn't Going Away.
Michael Medved has now published a second tirade on the issue of North American integration, this time attacking
both Joseph Farah and me by name. John Hawkins has also responded briefly on his blog, taking the
opportunity to issue yet another ad hominem attack, this time calling me "crazy." Neither gentleman
has yet responded to the substantive arguments or evidence that many of us have produced, demonstrating beyond
a shadow of a doubt that North American integration is proceeding full speed ahead in the Bush Administration.
Analysts: Dollar collapse
would result in 'amero'. Two analysts who have reconstructed money supply data after the Fed
stopped publishing it argue a coming dollar collapse will set the stage for creating the amero as a North
American currency to replace the dollar.
The Star-Telegram scoffs at the "consipiracy". Group's 'conspiracy' is
to create more efficient trade route. More than 350 business and political leaders from the United
States, Mexico and Canada are gathered in a Fort Worth hotel ballroom for the annual meeting of a Dallas-based
trade organization called North America's SuperCorridor Coalition (NASCO).
The NAFTA Superhighway: There's no such
thing as a proposed NAFTA Superhighway. … The myth upon which it rests was not fabricated out of whole
cloth. Rather, it has been sewn together from scraps of fact.

Consider the source. The article immediately above appears on a web site known
for its extreme left-wing propaganda.
Highway
myths. Fringe groups cultivate the myth of a planned 'NAFTA Superhighway,' diverting attention
from the crumbling highways that already exist.
