Is Canada worth saving from the grasp of elites/Industrials?

Is Canada worth saving? Is democracy worth saving? These are the two fundamental questions we must address now – before it is too late. Canadian values are disappearing rapidly as we lose our independence and our sovereignty. The country is being dismantled after more than a century of nation building. We are losing control of our most important industries. As we give up domestic ownership of our assets, we lose the most exciting and challenging jobs, which too often move to the new corporate headquarters outside Canada – and young people who want those jobs must follow. It’s part of the brain drain. In effect, Canada has become a victim of “Globalization”. We are told this process is both inevitable and good. It is only inevitable if we let it happen. It is only good for two to five percent of the world’s richest and most powerful people. It is bad for the vast majority.
Paul Hellyer, author

I should make a distinction between those areas where global cooperation is both good and essential, and those areas where it is harmful. We must cooperate globally to protect our oceans, the ozone layer and prevent Global Warming. International cooperation is also required to protect endangered species, fight international crime and in other areas of mutual concern. What we have to stop is the relentless drive on the part of multinational corporations and international banks – centred largely in the five big powers – to take over governance of the world for their own benefit.

The Canada – U.S. Free Trade Agreement

The “Globalization” process got a rocket-assisted boost with the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (FTA). Canadians were led to believe that this was a trade agreement. When I read it, I found, to my dismay, that it was primarily an investment agreement. Sure it called for reductions in tariffs, but this was already happening under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). The most important parts of the FTA were about investment. The Americans wanted our industries and resources – especially energy and water. They also wanted our land. Instead of Canada being open for business again, as Prime Minister Brian Mulroney proudly boasted, it was up for sale.

Mr. Mulroney allowed the Americans to insert a “national treatment” clause which was a new concept in international law that gave U.S. investors the same rights in Canada as Canadian citizens. I think this is wrong in principle! Where is the value of citizenship if foreign investors have the same rights? In fact, the “national treatment” clause gave American investors the right to invest in Canada without conditions and without limits. We can no longer say “You can’t buy more than 50% of our forest industry or oil and gas reserves” – because the treaty says they can own all our reserves. The same rule applies to our best farmland. With the FTA, Brian Mulroney accomplished two things: He virtually guaranteed the demise of Canada as a nation state, and he allowed the conquest of Canada by America. The conquest is still tentative, perhaps, for about two more years. Then we will reach the point of no return after which annexation by the United States will become inevitable. I am concerned that several hundred years of experiment in popular democracy is coming to an end because globalization is really a code word for corporate rule and colonization.

NAFTA – Canada is being sued

When we signed the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), we granted U.S. and Mexican investors greater rights in Canada than Canadian citizens enjoy. Chapter 11, the disputes settlement chapter, allows foreign investors to sue if our governments – federal, provincial or municipal – pass any law or regulation that affect their corporate profits or potential profits. And we are being sued. The first suit was the celebrated Ethyl case. When the Canadian parliament passed a law prohibiting the importation and distribution of MMT, a manganese-based gasoline additive in Canada, the U.S. Ethyl Corporation sued the government of Canada. The government settled out of court for $20 million in legal costs and agreed to repeal the law. So who is running Canada when a foreign corporation can dictate to the Canadian parliament? Equally bad, the settlement agreement required two Canadian cabinet ministers to read statements to the effect that MMT was not harmful either to the environment or to health at the very moment that the latest scientific evidence suggested that it may indeed be injurious to the health, especially of children. There are other cases pending. The Sun Belt Water Corporation of California is suing for $1.5-$10.5 billion because we won’t let it sell our water. Pope & Talbot Inc., a U.S. forest company is suing for $500 million. These suits are just the tip of the iceberg.

The WTO is Anti-Democratic

The World Trade Organization is another threat to our democratic traditions. It has ruled that the auto pact with the U.S. is illegal. It has ruled that the European Union has to accept U.S. and Canadian beef that has been raised on bovine growth hormones. It said that the U.S. could not ban tuna caught in nets that drown sea turtles. (In every case involving an environmental issue, the WTO has ruled against the environment). Now the WTO has ruled that our drug patents are too short and that, in effect, we have to change our laws to correspond with U.S. laws. In addition to this affront to our sovereignty, this ruling, if it stands, means that we will have to pay untold millions more for drugs at a time when our health care system is already in crisis from inadequate funding.

What Kind of Democracy?

The decline of democracy in the U.S. has reached the point where Lewis Lapham, editor of Harpers Magazine, says the U.S. has two governments – the permanent government and the provisional government. The permanent government comprises: (a) the Fortune 500 list of the largest American corporations, (b) the largest law firms in Washington that do their legal work for them, (c) the largest public relation firms in Washington that do their advertising and public relations and (d) the top public servants both civil and military. These groups make up the permanent government that really runs the country. Then there is the provisional government – “politicians for hire”. Every few years there is a charade called an election which picks a political actor to go on stage and read the scripts written by the permanent government. As some actors read scripts with less improvisation than others, the permanent government checks them out in advance and decides who they want. Then they put up the money to get them elected. George Bush is the perfect stereotype. Listen to him on “Free Trade” and foreign policy and you will know he is the actor of choice. Why did Elizabeth Dole drop out of the Republican race? Because she was not the choice of the permanent government and didn’t have the funds to continue.

There are Strings Attached

The evolution of the system has led to a government that is little more than a big bully enforcer for giant American corporations. The U.S. government goes to the WTO and gets a ruling forcing us to accept whatever big corporations want. Their giant corporations want to dominate world markets. In a “Globalized” society, people don’t matter – only corporations do. Small independent operators and family farms are doomed by globalization.

Aggressive Agri-Business

One of the coziest arrangements has been between the U.S. government and Monsanto Corporation – now in the process of changing its name due to a bad image. Monsanto is the company that gave us Agent Orange, the allegedly safe defoliant used in the Vietnam War which has now claimed thousands of casualties. Monsanto is also one of the companies developing terminator seeds, seeds that cannot be replanted because they are genetically altered to be sterile. This is one of the most frightening developments in modern history. Attempts to corner world seed markets and sell only genetically altered seed would impoverish millions of people. When I learned that the U.S. Department of Agriculture had assisted Monsanto in the development of such a patently evil product I wondered how this could be possible in a democracy. Then I learned that one of Monsanto’s key directors was one of President Clinton’s key fundraisers. It is a matter of national shame that the Canadian government has been aiding and abetting the U.S. in promoting the interests of this destructive company including its increased control of Canadian agriculture. Ottawa is helping to drive Canadian farmers out of business. Globalization in agriculture means three or four giant agribusinesses are determined to monopolize the world food supply with their genetically-altered species and make us all dependent on them for our food. As we capitulate, and let our farmers go under, these aggressive corporations are buying up some of our best agricultural land.

National Fire Sale

At the same time, many of our best companies are being bought out. Thirteen thousand Canadian companies have been sold to foreigners in the last decade or so – more than 10,000 to Americans. In a stunning admission to the National Post in early March, Industry Minister John Manley predicted the end of federal restrictions that prevent foreigners from buying Canadian airlines, communications companies and even banks. There will be nothing left of Canada but an empty shell. And the kind of corporate-controlled government that allows this to happen is a cruel joke. Canada and the world are being re-engineered without the consent of the citizens who are having their birthright sold out from under their feet.

Let, Corporations Rule the World

The substitution of corporate rule for democracy is being imposed around the world. Countries have to sign treaties that give transnational corporations the right to cherry-pick their industries and assets. If a country has a business that begins to cut into market share, the transnationals can buy it, make it part of their empire, shut it down or move it to Malaysia, for example. Under the rules of “Globalization”, no country – other than the big five (or six) – can hope to achieve anything like self-sufficiency.

Neo-Classical Economics – Bad economic theory and bad economic management

All of this change is justified in the name of laissez-faire economics, which insists that governments are bad and markets are good. Government-owned services must be privatized. Even basic services like health and education are on the block. This is all in accord with the ideas of Nobel laureate Milton Friedman and his colleagues at the University of Chicago. At first, the Friedman system (ideology) was called monetarism, but when that wasn’t technically accurate, it was renamed neo-classical monetarism – and, more recently – just neo-classical economics. It should have been called retro-classical rather than neo-classical because it is not new. It is the same old pre-depression boom-bust system. Mainline economists won’t admit it, but their 25-year experiment with neo-classical economics has been a monumental flop and resulted in a monumental 2,289% increase in federal debt. The increase in debt was not primarily due to overspending as the right insists. It was primarily due to the slow growth of the economy and debt compounding at high interest rates due to monetarist policies. Compound interest was the real culprit.

People are the Victims

The cold statistics can be translated into the heart-wrenching experiences of many Canadians. If you are a doctor or a nurse, you are likely to find yourself so overworked and stressed out that you are unable to provide the quality of care you want to give. The same can be said for many teachers whose workload has been increased to the point where they have felt obliged to reduce or eliminate participation in extra-curricular activities like drama or sports. If you are a student, you may graduate with as much or more debt as the mortgage on your parents’ first house. And, no matter who you are, if you lack skills, you may be unemployed from time-to-time because a “Globalized” market system is not designed for full employment (four percent). Demand management, as practiced in the early post-war years is a neo-classical “no no”. Your company may be bought and downsized leaving you with few options after long years of faithful service. This is just part of the price of “Globalization”.

Is there any hope?

There is hope but it will require a revolution of the intellect followed by a revolution at the ballot box. First, and immediately, we have to abrogate the FTA and NAFTA in order to get rid of the “national treatment” clause that is killing Canada. This does not mean turning the clock back ten years on trade! Canada can compete in trade. But we cannot compete in investment – we just don’t have money on the same scale. So, we must try to replace the FTA and NAFTA with new fair trade agreements and, if that is not possible, rely on the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade which served us so well for so long. Once we are rid of the “national treatment” clause, we must start screening foreign investment again and stop the sale of our best industries and with it stop much of the brain drain. Then, we must refuse to sign any more treaties, such as the FTAA (Free Trade Agreement of the Americas) that will extend the “national treatment” clause to the tip of South America. And, at the same time, we must take health care, education, agriculture and intellectual property off the table for the WTO negotiations. To give up our sovereignty in these important areas would reduce all Canadian governments to a state of impotence. This must not be allowed to happen! Canada should say “No!” to any extension of WTO jurisdiction and influence until we can gauge the damage already done.

The Monopoly to Print Money

In 1974, the Bank of Canada owned more than 20% of federal government debt – the equivalent of an interest-free loan. But that is the year our central bank adopted the ideas of Milton Friedman and began to give back to the private banks their virtual monopoly to “print” money. The result is that today the B of C only owns about 4% of federal government debt and the shortfall has to be borrowed from the market, including the private banks, at high interest rates. In effect, taxpayers are subsidizing the private banks by $4-$5 billion a year. There is insufficient space to discuss monetary theory here but anyone who is interested can read books on the subject including one or two of mine such as ‘Surviving the Global Financial Crisis’, or ‘Stop: Think’, the latest one. A system where private banks print nearly all of the money is not a stable system (44 recessions and depressions in 200 years) and is not one that will provide full employment for Canada or the world. There is simply not enough money in the hands of rank and file consumers. So, we have to learn the lessons of history and revert to the system we had in effect from 1939 to 1974. Access to significant amounts of publicly-created, zero cost (debt free) money is the only way governments can meet the conflicting demands of increased expenditures for health care, education, environmental concerns, research and development, the arts and other legitimate areas of public concern while permitting lower taxes at the same time. There is no other way to reconcile the claims of left and right.

The War [Electoral] for Independence

The next federal election will decide Canada’s fate. If any party – or combination of parties – that supports the FTA and NAFTA forms the next government, Canada is dead. Our only hope is a genuine alliance of patriotic Liberals, Conservatives, Reformers, NDPers, Bloc Québécois, and even people too cheesed-off to vote, getting together in one powerful movement to turn the ship of state around before it is too late. An independent Canada is best for the United States, the world and us. If we really believe that, we all have to enlist in Canada’s war for independence and make it happen.

Editorial Note: Globalization directly affects our personal freedom, for example, to choose the food and medicine we need for our health.

CAP/PAC Leader Speaks at Montreal 9/11 Truth, October 20, 2007

Another great message from my favorite Party Leader, Connie Fogal.

updated on 10:08 AM, October 31, 2007

Searching for the Truth-Exposing the Forbidden

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am Connie Fogal, leader of the Canadian Action Party.

You are here tonight for a number of reasons.

Possibly you are a confirmed truth seeker with a fully informed position about the 9/11 issue. You know the official story to be the lie that it is. Yet, you want more information. You seek Mr Tarpley’s expertise as an important addition.

Or, you think that the official story about what happened September 11, 2001 is

just not good enough in the face of overwhelming evidence. It leaves too many unanswered questions. You have doubts. You want to hear Mr Tarpley.

Or, you have a friend who has been giving you information which you just have not wanted to accept, and which you have been dismissing as “conspiracy theories”, but a nagging doubt has set in, and so you have decided to begin to explore the issue yourself.

Perhaps you want to experience the strength and power of being with “soul-mates”.

And/or, perhaps you are here to explore some political direction arising out of this issue.

In any case, you are pursuing your own development within the truth.

Thinking our way through to the truth is the single most important thing we can do, first, for ourselves, and then, for our families and larger community. It is our route out of the box.

The reason it is so important that you find the truth on this 9/11 issue is because that event triggered a fundamental world wide institutionalization of the political shift away from the interests of humanity.

It escalated despotic corporate rule.

It escalated despotic corporate rule.

It was the vehicle to bring the people to their knees “willingly”, and to impose an Orwellian mindset.

The classic example is the response by one British woman who said after 9/11 in comment on the imposition of the U.K’s anti-terrorist law, “I have to give up my liberty in order to be free.”

Being free and sovereign is our birthright. We cannot be free if the truth is hidden or forbidden to us. But, truth can never be permanently fettered. It will break out of any chains!

It is important to understand that we cannot be oppressed if we demand the truth and then live it.

The continuation of the 9/11 world of deception depends completely on us, on our willingness to accept lies OR our insistence on truth. Canada and the world are at a crossroads.

Let me repeat what I said on that video.

Knowing the truth about what really happened on September 11, 2001 is the critical first step in comprehending the immensity of harm being done to earth and all it’s people by massive deception created by a small clique, a cabal, of greedy people. The same people who are behind the lies about 9/11 are withholding vital earth saving tools.

Exposing the rest of the deception is necessary for our survival on earth.

The rest of this presentation contains information documented from Dr Steven Greer’s book called Hidden Truth Forbidden Knowledge.
(There are many other excellent resource materials on this subject.)

He talks about the fact that technology exists now on earth to save the earth and its people from an insane march to its destruction, but it is deliberately hidden from us, withheld from the benefit of humankind.

It is technology that can remove earth’s dependency on fossil fuels; i.e., new energy systems that can save the world’s environment.

It is a technology that can end earth’s transportation gridlocks.

It is technology that can cure horrible illnesses like aids and cancer.

It is technology that can end all poverty in the world, and provide an abundance for all.

It is technology that will benefit humankind in sciences that support healing, transportation, energy generation, manufacturing, biology, agriculture.

Instead, the technology is used to wage war, to weaponise space, to conquer, to pillage, and to destroy.

This incredible technology is in the hands of the wrong people, people who are addicted to abusing power. (As former President Eisenhower said in …)

It has been stolen, in some cases from scientists such as Tesla, and in most cases, from hidden sources. It has been funneled off into covert black projects.

Who are the people who have the technology and are hiding it from us?

They are the shadow government. They are a group of quasi-governmental but mostly privatized transnational interlocking interests mainly in the corporate, institutional, financial and technology sectors. They operate outside the government structure of the military, the CIA, the NSA, the NRO, army intelligence, air force intelligence. They include think tanks, religious orders.

An intricate sophisticated tightly controlled structure of covert operations hides projects and compartments within other projects and compartments that receive government funding, and whose workers have no idea of the interconnectedness of the widget they work on to another widget in another project.

In the USA, contract work is funded by government under Work for Others contracts. The contractors work for companies such as Lockheed or E Systems, Bechtel, AT&T, Stanford Research Institute (SRI), Bell Labs, General Motors, JPL (Jet Propulsion Labs), IBM. (There are others)

The transnational controlling policy group numbers 200 to 300 people located throughout the world including the USA, China, Latin America, Europe, Russia, The Vatican, the Mormon empire, various institutes. Remember, corporatocracy has no allegiance to nations, and spits on their sovereignty.

They are a transnational group that has infiltrated every significant government in the world, but is answerable to none of them, nor to the people’s of the world. The religious empires have vast financial and corporate holdings linked to the covert programs, but the rank and file have nothing to do with it.

These corporate, financial, transnational interests have been institutionalized in our national bureaucracies in North America by the creation of the Competitiveness Councils in the USA, Canada, and Mexico who are the corporate bagmen. The10 representative companies in each country carry to each national leader the orders from on high in a trickle down effect. They tell the leaders and their minions of each country to jump, and each leader only asks how high.

Who are some of the people, who knew about this technology but refused to reveal it? They include:

• Admiral Harry Trane, former Commander in Chief, Atlantic Command, who moved to Science Applications International Corporation, SAIC (the crown jewel of the secret shadow government).
• George Bush as former CIA Director, (the father of the current president George Bush)
• Henry Kissinger
• Former Congressman George Brown of California , deceased
• Porter Goss, former Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and current CIA Director.

Who are some who know or knew or have learned about this technology but did not/do not tell us even though they may have wanted to do so? They include:

• Ambassador Maxwell Rab, one of the leaders on the Council on Foreign Relations.
• Mr Peterson, a former head of the Council on Foreign Relations and his wife, a former head of the Tri-Lateral Commission.
• Lord Mountbatten
• Lord Hill Norton, in England, a five star admiral and a former MOD head.
• U.S Admiral Tom Wilson while head of Intelligence Joint Staff
• James Woolsey former CIA Director
• U.S, Senator Claiborne Pell
• U.S. Senator Byrd
• U.S Senator Bryan

Who are some who have known about the existence of this information but have not had courage to reveal it? Or tried, but were blocked? They include:

• Kurt Waldheim, former Secretary General of the United Nations,
• Boutros -Ghali, former Secretary General of the United Nations, and his wife, Leah.
• Kofi Annan, former highest diplomat in the United Nations bureaucracy.
• Bill Colby, former CIA Director
• U.S. President Jack Kennedy who was going to rein in the military industrial complex. In the fall of 1963 he was in the process of putting through the U.S. federal system an executive order that would have begun to expose the covert operations and put this advanced technology to the benefit of humankind into the hands o f the people.
• U.S. President Bill Clinton,
• Former Senator Barry Goldwater, US presidential contender, a general in the air force reserves, founder of the conservative wing of the republican Party.
• Friends of Prince Charles and Prince Philip.
• U.S. Vice President Humphrey
• U.S. President Jimmy Carter
• Former U.S. Secretary of Defence Cohen
• US Senator Dick Bryan of Nevada, U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee
• Mike Wallace, of 60 Minutes
• Bob Shwartz, noted journalist, board of Time-Life
• Laurance Rockefeller
• Premier Gorbachev, Soviet Union
• US President Bush Senior
• United Nations Secretary General, Perez de Cuellar.
• U.S. Congressman Christopher Cox, currently head of the Securites and Exchange Commission
• U.S. Senator Inouye

Who are some of the people who have spoken out already? They include:

• Paul Hellyer, founding leader of the Canadian Action Party, and a former Canadian Minister of Defence
• Shane McDowell formerly of U.S. Atlantic Command, Norfolk Virginia
• Astronaut Gordon Cooper
• Astronaut Neil Armstrong
• Dr Steven Greer, M.D., Head of Disclosure Project
• Astronaut Dr. Brian O’Leary,

How are the innovative black ops programs funded?

Clandestine funding is being siphoned out of every US agency, through dummy programs. This was revealed by whistle blower Catherine Austin Fitts who worked with the first Bush presidency as Assistant Secretary for Housing and Urban Development. Her whistle blowing resulted in her losing her job, being run out of town, and almost being destroyed financially and professionally.

The people of the world will access that technology for the benefit of all humankind only if we demand the release of that technology.

But first we have to know that it is here. And, we have to know the important original source. Then we have to know who holds it and keeps it hidden from us, and why- their greed and power. Only when enough of us know that truth, will we be able to command its release for peace on earth and good will to all mankind.

The weapon of the shadow government is fear: fear of ridicule and fear of reprisals.

The defence tools of the people are knowledge and truth. These tools are the checks and balance that protect us. Being part of a legal entity in the form of a registered political party is our best practical protection.

When large numbers of people around the world mobilize demanding the release of the truth, that knowledge will be a power synthesizing the courage of many of the powerful people to do what they really do want to do: i.e., release the technology for the betterment of humanity and imprison the criminal cabal. The world’s current weak and spineless ruling class await the push from the people.

So our role after today is to reach out for more information in order to become as informed as possible, and to share that information widely in the same way as you have been doing on the 9/11 issue. You are the world’s ambassadors for truth, hope, enlightenment, and abundance for all.

The Canadian Action Party calls for full disclosure surrounding this hidden technology.
