Canadian military policing our country?

Canada's Sovereignty in Jeopardy: the Militarization of North America

This is certainly an interesting read, and I'm not sure how many people know about it due to the lack of publicity it has gotten. I sure didn't until somebody told me to look for it. Give me your thoughts.

This looks like a "boots on the ground" equivalent to NORAD. We and the canuks have been directly collaborating since after WWII in order to keep the Russians away. This looks like an extension of that relationship.

The one line in this that scared me was the proposed North American Union. I don't want to think about a future where we have Canada's gun laws, everyone has our welfare laws (and $), and we all get a taste of Mexico's complete lack of laws. Imagine micromanagement mixed with anarchy, and that's what a NAU would look like.

Sounds like a Kafka novel, Like "The Trial" or "The Castle".

Nice tie in. I need to read more.

Wasn't it back in 2008 that the administration signed an agreement with the canucks that if the USA went into Martial Law, they'd police?

I'd take Canadian cops over ours.

It's hard to effectively police with 2 canoes, 5 snowmobiles, and a Cessna. Just saying.

A Cessna? Surely you jest.

Should this ever happen you could expect to hear the distinctive roar of a de Havilland Beaver overhead.

The enforce Canadian laws, so I wouldn't. If I were a cop in Canada, I would refuse to enforce the laws that they have that directly violate free speech. Just the fact that they are willing to enforce those are reason enough for me not to like them. Not saying that anyone here wouldn't, but I know quite a lot of cops personally who would oppose such laws being passed or enforced here in the U.S.

I don't see Canadian troops acting as police in the United States but in a complet breakdown situation I could see the blue helmet brigade attempting to police.
