EDITORIAL: Beware the ties that bind too=20 much


Lost in the chaos that rocked Ottawa last = week, a=20 report by a self-appointed task force outlining its = vision of=20 the future of North America received little attention = in the=20 press in Canada or the United States.

The group of prominent Canadians, Americans and = Mexicans started off their report with a sensible = question: Do=20 Canada, the United States and Mexico continue on the = path of=20 co-operation in promoting more secure and more = prosperous=20 North American societies, or do they pursue divergent = and=20 ultimately less secure and less prosperous courses?

Pointing out, quite rightly, that "to ask the = question=20 is to answer it," they then twisted the obvious answer = =97=20 co-operation is always better than contrariness =97 = into a call=20 to build a wall around North America and all but = remove the=20 borders separating Canada, the United States and = Mexico.

Confusing co-operation with harmonization, the = panel,=20 whose Canadian contingent included former deputy prime = minister John Manley, big business lobbyist Tom = D'Aquino and=20 former ambassador to Washington Allan Gotlieb, glossed = over=20 the degree to which Canada and the U.S. already = co-operate.=20 The most notable area of co-operation is on security = matters,=20 but there is a host of other issues ranging from mad = cow=20 disease to our military operations in Afghanistan. = Under their=20 interpretation of co-operation, Canada, the U.S. and = Mexico=20 would insulate themselves against competition from the = rest of=20 the world with a common external tariff, and with an = outer=20 security perimeter against external threats.=20

But as fast as they would construct these walls = on the=20 outside, they would tear down almost every fence on = the inside=20 with an across-the-board harmonization of rules, = regulations=20 and laws on everything from who could seek asylum in = North=20 America to military operations to pollution and = environmental=20 controls.

In fact, they would go so far as to give = Canadians and=20 Americans absolute freedom to decide where they would = work and=20 where they would live.

Despite the one, big happy North American = family=20 portrait that the report painted, the dissenting views = of some=20 prominent members of the task force presented a much = different=20 picture of where all this harmonization would = ultimately lead.

Richard Falkenrath, a former advisor to the = president=20 on homeland security, said that because the U.S. = stands to=20 gain less from economic harmonization than from a = unified=20 approach to security, it would make sense for = Washington to=20 demand even more from Canada and Mexico on security, = including=20 a common approach to "nuclear and ballistic threats." = That=20 could easily be interpreted as wanting Canada to = reverse=20 itself and join the U.S. on missile defence, even if = it=20 decides to take weapons into space.

Chappell Lawson, a political scientist at the=20 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, expressed the = concern=20 that the task force ignores the reality that the = integration=20 it proposes "will generate large numbers of losers as = well as=20 winners, " and offers no remedy to alleviate the pain.

And Tom Axworthy, principal secretary to former = prime=20 minister Pierre Trudeau, pointed to the case of Maher = Arar as=20 an example of the dangers of harmonizing visa and = asylum=20 rules. He also wondered what U.S. commitments would = mean when=20 North Dakota is already breaking a Canada-U.S. treaty = with a=20 water diversion project that threatens Manitoba.=20

If these are the concerns of people who = generally=20 favour greater North American integration, it raises = the=20 question of how much greater the risks to Canadian = sovereignty=20 and Canadian values really are.

For example, how do you harmonize Canada's = commitment=20 to the Kyoto accord on climate change with a partner = that=20 refuses to do its part? How do you co-ordinate = Ontario's=20 commitment to get rid of its dirty coal-fired power = plants=20 with a country that is building more coal-fired = plants?=20

The report doesn't say.
