Several hundred years of experiment in popular democracy is going down the drain. Our quarrel is not with the American people. Both the world and Canada are at a crossroads. It would have crashed already if it had not been for the IMF using our money to lend to third world countries to pay the interest on what they already owe so that it looks as if those loans are performing when in fact they are non-performing. They are debts that can never be repaid.
Nothing is sacred.
Not even our money is sacrosanct. They have started this selling job to get us to accept the U.S. dollar for a replacement to the looney. When they first raised this subject, it was considered preposterous, but now, people are accepting it as inevitable. Naive Canadians who don't know where money comes from and don't know how the monetary system works, think, well, maybe it is not such a bad idea. What they do not know, as Michel Chossudovsky pointed out, is money is power.
