NAFTA Trade Corridors Are Real

"There's no such thing as a proposed NAFTA Superhighway." That was the conclusion reached by writer Christopher Hayes in the August 27, 2007 issue of The Nation. Of course, Hayes is not alone in denying the existence of plans for a NAFTA Superhighway system. The official line, from the governments of Canada, Mexico, and the U.S. is that there are no plans to merge the three nations and, as a result, there are no plans to build a NAFTA highway system.

Apparently, the government of the province of Alberta, Canada, did not get the memo. The Province's Infrastructure and Transportation division helpfully published online the map of the NAFTA Superhighway seen below. 

 

So much for the myth that no such highway system is in the works. To see the map in its native environment, click here.

UPDATE: Click here to download Alberta's "CANAMEX Trade Corridor" brochure (PDF).

NAFTA Superhighway Mid Continental Corridor is under way

Prairie Provinces prove what Prime Minister and President deny

by Joe Hueglin

   
   

Two provinces, Manitoba through its Speech from the Throne, and Alberta, through a map of NAFTA Trade Corridors have provided strong evidence that there are plans for a NAFTA Superhighway, or Mid-Continent Trade Corridor. President Bush and Prime Minister Harper dismissed this idea after the Montebello meeting as comparable to planning an "interplanetary" superhighway or a scare tactic whereby a "conspiracy" is laid out.

There is no conspiracy. Plans are going forward. This question is as yet unanswered: does what now recognized as reality stands alone or is part of a wider plan? The one Former Mexican President Fox spoke of a as "a new vision", first NAFTA, then integration through the Security and Prosperity Partnership.

The American Presidential candidates are discussing the existence of what is contained in the Manitoba Speech from the Throne and the Albertan North American Trade Corridors map. Americans concerned about their country losing sovereignty in a North American Union are circulating YouTubes contrasting the reality of the Speech, and Map, to the words of those denying the Superhighways' existence.

Though our political system differs, Canadians will do well to watch the influence of these contributions from Canada as Americans select their next president. Will the person selected be following the denial policy of President Bush or charting a different course?

I also just found a pdf that has the gov of AZ signing the agreement on 2-14-08. 

I attempted to copy the route maps from the pdf above because I do not believe many people are paying attention to the entire scope of this.  So far we have heard about TX, but what about these other states?

We need to be paying much more attention to this IMHO.

Alright, for the life of me I can not figure out how to get this image pasted into this comment block.  If anyone with more experience at this than me could tell me how to paste an image, I sure would appreciate it.  In the meantime, I'll attempt to paste the link.  http://www.infratrans.gov.ab.ca/INFTRA_Content/doctype59/production/Canamex-Trade-Brochure.pdf

So, I just read the pdf of the AZ CANAMEX signed document.  It was signed 1-14-08 and outlines tasks and priorities.  NOWHERE do I see any mention of security.

Am I missing something here?  We have not been screaming border security for some time now and all this gov. is concerned about is money?

What a joke.  We have been duped.
