The 'Amero': What of sovereignty?


Will Americans trade their dead presidents for Ameros?
The Amero -- replacing the American and Canadian dollars and the Mexican peso -- will be the coin of the realm of the North American Union, a looming NAFTA-like superstate composed of Canada, Mexico and the United States, according to Human Events Online.

But the Amero is not a new concept. The Fraser Institute, a Canadian think tank, published "The Case for the Amero" in 1999.

The three heads of state issued a joint announcement about a "trilateral partnership" after meeting at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, in March 2005. "The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America" supposedly will lead to the free-market movement of people, capital and trade across the borders.

Canadians, Mexicans and Americans who value the sovereignty of their respective countries should be concerned.

The Council on Foreign Relations published a report in May -- "Building a North American Community" -- calling for, among other things, redefining the borders of the three nations, creating a super-regional governance board and the North American Paramilitary Group to ensure that Congress does not interfere with whatever the trilateral union feels like doing.

Must the Bush administration happily sacrifice every shred of American sovereignty for the greater good of the New World Order?
