In case you blinked and missed it...

We mentioned this in a previous podcast:

In an interview with CNBC, a vice president for a prominent London investment firm yesterday urged a move away from the dollar to the "amero," a coming North American currency, he said, that "will have a big impact on everybody's life, in Canada, the U.S. and Mexico."

Steve Previs, a vice president at Jefferies International Ltd., explained the Amero "is the proposed new currency for the North American Community which is being developed right now between Canada, the U.S. and Mexico."

The aim, he said, according to a transcript provided by CNBC to WND, is to make a "borderless community, much like the European Union, with the U.S. dollar, the Canadian dollar and the Mexican peso being replaced by the amero."

Previs told the television audience many Canadians are "upset" about the amero. Most Americans outside of Texas largely are unaware of the amero or the plans to integrate North America, Previs observed, claiming many are just "putting their head in the sand" over the plans.

This was November 28, 2006. We were discussing it at Atma tonight with some guests, one who was from Canada but hadn't heard of the "Amero".

Here's where they announce that they are merging the three countries, without calling it that (don't you love the way that they just call it something, or don't call it something and think that doing that changes everything - and the way that it actually does for 99% of the population? - "A rose by any other name..." It seems that for the vast majority until they are actually told it by a talking head on the TV, they just can't see it. ):

Here are a bunch of Canada-related links from the archives:

What's wrong with a single global currency?

Pardon my ignorance of global finances, but what is wrong with the trend towards a single global currency? Sure, it isn't based on anything. That is: no gold reserve to back up the currency. However, most money already isn't backed by anything substantial, so what difference would it make?

I, for one, welcome our new overlords... not!

Centralized control is a bad idea. It opens the door to total tyranny. That's why people are resisting national ID cards, disarmament of the population, totalitarian police state laws, and so forth.

Of course one argument that is advanced is: "But if you have nothing to hide, then why are you worried..."

That presumes of course, that the people who are going to be exercising the powers are some kind of neutral, objective party. Of course we understand that they are not - they are demons. So it goes without question that this centralization is a bad idea.

"I know, let's put everyone on the same currency (that we control) then pull the rug out from them and own everything."

Gee, great idea...
