Vancouver Forum: Effing Americans have Harper by the Balls ! - Vancouver Forum

They are all Zionists. Harper was invited to Bilderberg back in 2003.  He is one of those elite rich crooks. They get rich, we suffer. Soon we will be like the other countries that they have collapsed.

Our water is our future. To sell it out now would be pure idiocy.

soon we might be using the same currency:

gotta love the fact that our government's looking out for everyone but canadians

I have to agree, Harper makes me very nervous.

But I like that he's strong on issues like Criminal law. Change is yet to be seen on that subject, but I'm sure he'll get to it soon.

I've emailed Mr. Harper a total of 16 times now, some for Global warming issues, some for immigration, gas prices, and 4 about my concerns of becoming 'USA'd'.

I never got a single email back. But that's okay, just a reality of politics. That stupid law that the winner of the election doesn't actually have to follow through with any of the things he platformed on is just ridiculous.

I'd rather the NDP get back in power. The Liberals cancelled many of the programs the NDP first created, only to bring some of those programs back. The conservatives are doing the same thing.

Oh well, that's politics for ya.

Soon the enntire glove may--will?--be?



This is the home page of the Single Global Currency Association, which is dedicated to the goal of implementing a single global currency by 2025. [background=rgb(255, 255, 0);]We shall achieve this goal through education and persuasion.[/font]

We believe that once the peoples (including their corporations and labor and other organizations) of the world understand the benefits of a single global currency, they will demand it from their governments. [background=rgb(255, 255, 0);]The single global currency is what the peoples of the world need, and it is what they want.[/font]

The referenda in Denmark and Sweden for a common currency have failed because the people were not persuaded of the benefits of that particular common currency. A major reason why those benefits are restrained is that today's common currencies (euro, EC dollar, African franc, U.S. dollar) still must function in a multi-currency world, and therefore must suffer the ills of the current exchange rate system. Once the peoples of the world see the significantly increased benefits of a single global currency, even compared to the growing regional "single currencies", they will demand that their governments start planning for its implementation.

A single global currency would likely have a new name which denotes its global use, such as "mundo", "global", or "eartha", just as the "euro" is currently for Europe. (See Feedback on SGC Names.) It likely would not be the expanded form of any current currency, such as the dollar or euro or yen, unless those currencies opened up their central banks' governing boards to worldwide participation and agreed to change the name of the currency to one with more global meaning.

With the use of a single global currency, there would be no more need for expensive currency exchanges nor expensive hedges against currency fluctuations. Gone would be currency speculation and the risk of currency failures and balance of payment problems. Such a currency would therefore be more efficient as a means of conveying true value, without consideration of the political winds of the day. (See Why an SGC.)

The single global currency would be managed by a single international central bank, with a representative governing board; and member countries would be required to abide by agreed-upon fiscal discipline standards.

As it's thought by many economists that a single global currency will be good for the people of the world and as many economists and non-economists expect a single global currency "someday", why not obtain the benefits thereof sooner rather than later? It will surely benefit all the people of all the countries of the world if there is a single global currency, just as it currently benefits California and Maine to be in the same monetary union with the U.S. dollar, and for Germany and Portugal to be in the European Monetary Union with the euro. "Let's start planning, NOW!"

Let's ask the thousands of economists who specialize in international monetary issues to study how the single global currency will work and what is needed to implement it. Enough has been studied and written about how the current exchange rate systems do not give suffcient stability to the international finance system. "Let's start planning, NOW!"

Of course, there are issues to be worked and agreements to be made. There will be questions about which countries can participate, and under what conditions. There will be questions about what steps must be accomplished first or second or third. [background=rgb(255, 255, 0);]There should be no question, however, of whether the goal should be reached. In any case, "Let's start planning, NOW!"[/font]

Soon the enntire glove may--will?--be?

= Soon the entire globe may--will?--be.

I can hardly wait until Harper pulls a majority. Then we can round up all you goofy Liberals and truck you off to the "camps"!

Nobody will dump the dollar for something called an eartha. Britain rejected the Euro because they are attached to their pound. It has history and meaning for them. America has similar feelings about the US dollar. Other countries likely feel the same, although with the ones mentioned already, any world currency is a non-starter.

A free trade agreement is the only rational trade agreement. The greater the freedom of Canadian and American companies to compete, the greater benefit to all. 

If being USA'd translates into less government economic interference - I'm all for it.

Free trade without constaints for national governments to protect their sovereignty is political suicide and will condemn Canada to economic seritude to the USA as the existing Nafta is on their terms & conditions ...

The greater population of Canada has yet to share in ANY increases in wealth , security and living standards since NAFTA was implemented ! What a Farce ! The whole agrement should be reviewed to see if there are any improvements to the lot of ordinary Canadians ... if only a few have prospered at teh cost to many , lets renegotiate the agreement so that it is more equitable to Canadians .

We are the new Puerto Rico (Colony)of the USA with the NAFTA agreement  as it stands today which is USA biased ...

We should not put all of our economic future tied only to the USA , There are 400 million Europeans in Europe that we should be increasing trade with as well as increasing trade with Japan so that economic downturns in any region of the world do not affect us very much .The USA is on the verge of having a major downturn soon ....guess who is tied right in to catch the cold after they sneeze !!!

Free trade across international borders is not just good for business or good for job-creation. It is good -- period.

Protectionism distorts markets, hurts importers, kills jobs, and sows distrust between nations. But the foremost reason governments should refuse to impede free trade is that it is theft. It steals from the many to enrich the few. It deprives individuals of the right to control their own property -- to choose for themselves where to buy the products they want and to sell the goods they own.

"Every citizen who has produced or acquired a product," wrote Frederic Bastiat, the great 19th-century economist and philosopher of freedom, "should have the option of applying it immediately to his own use or of transferring it to whomever on the face of the earth agrees to give him in exchange the object of his desires. To deprive him of this option ... solely to satisfy the convenience of another citizen, is to legitimize an act of plunder and to violate the law of justice."

I thought Visa was already  "Acting Worldwide Currency" and Mastercard was its "Deputy". LOL 

I fail to see how any of this funny. Literally.

"I fail to see how any of this funny"

Well you have no sense of humor. Think about it, how many times in a week, month, year you use plastic vs cash? Even if it is a debit card which is a substitute for checks or cash in bank, most of them are also backup by powerful credit card companies, like Visa, MC, AE, etc...

Europe formed the EU and got rid of their borders.It made for a free trade zone unheard of. Europe instituted the Euro. It certainly made a lot of transactions a lot easier. But the results are that everything has become so much more expensive. Although the Euro may be a strong currency, the consumers in Euro land lost. How did that happen?

Human trafficking and sexual slavery have exploded in Europe since the adoption of the Euro, as has drug-related crime and internal strife like riots and vandalism of state property.  The rise of the Euro has also seen a similar rise in racism and in particular anti-Semitism. 

Harper is an idiot when it comes to dealing with the USA.  He actually looks up to GWB!!!  On domestic issues he is not bad, certainly better than the Liberals he is replacing.  Selling our water now is a very bad idea.  The time to set prices is when the customers are desperate for your product, not when they are flush with a supply of their own. 

We shouldn't sell our water because Canada has 25% of the world's freshawater, and that puts us in a great position to dominate the world markets in a few decades (water will sell for far more than oil). Then again, America can easily take Canada by force, so maybe Harper is selling water just to make sure we get a few dollars out of the deal.

Even if some water was sold to the US, its a renewable resource, when it it RAINS it gets replenished. Beside if the US gets strapped for water there is plenty in the sea that you can de-salinate. Theoriginal post is just more typical undeducated moronic rants by ignorant fools. Canada is blessed with enormous resources that we cant possibly use with our piddly population, why not sell some water if its not needed.

We don't "lose" our sovereignty selling any of our goods or natural resources. I heard the same BS in the original Free trade agreement and contrary to the opposition of the blind its been a huge success. The stupid unions and socialists were WRONG, Canada has benefitted huge in theFTA, far better than the agreement it replaced. But the brainwashhed don't care about facts, they prefer to spew their propaganda.

Rad Man you are a WAY OFF. Oh, its Ok for the fragmented Europeans to form a Union, but somehow a North American trade agreement is Bad?? Canada has far more independence than their EU members, do your homework instead of projectile vomiting BS. Nafta does not require a unified currency, nor limitations on deficits and fiscal policy, nor the requirement to send money to prop up irresponsible members. Half of the EU memebership is either mired in debt (like Italy and Greece) or weak economies. The fact we HAVE Nafta gives us far better ways to resolve disputes with the US. It ain't perfect by any stretch, but have a ,look around you, things are pretty damn good in Canada, far better than before Nafta.

Lapdog Harper and his cronies are working on a Continental agreement that will trade away Canadian water resources for all time !!!

Write your local federal politician and make your views known that this is not what is good for Canada or Canadians !!!!

Do we really want another NAFTA like agtreement to finish off what ever is left of the once proud & independant nation called Canada .
