As Canadians, we are lucky to have a lot of things: our beautiful landscape; diverse culture; and in the face of a worldwide economic catastrophe, we are poised to come out of it better than most. But are we in for smooth sailing, or do we just have the best seat on the sinking Titanic?

 

Our choice is not really a choice.  We must choose whether or not we should continue to be the house slave of the British Empire, waiting patiently for table scraps, and savoring them thankfully because we know how much worse it is for the others. Should we take charge of our own ship? Or should we allow ourselves to be towed along behind the familiar and comfortable S.S. Empire as it is taking on water, and the rats are fleeing.

 

Canada is a colony.  We have an unelected senate and our head of State is the Queen of England. Canada borrows it’s own money at high interest from foreign banks and Financiers from London who represent the British Monetary Empire. Canada has no need to do this, and would enjoy abundance and sovereignty if it were free to determine it’s own economic affairs. Nobody can be truly free under the rule of a foreign predatory empire, because by definition an empire exists only to exploit and dominate.

 

What do I mean by ‘British Monetary Empire’?  I’m not talking about the country of England. When the militant strength of the empire died off, the people who controlled it did not go away; they went underground with their system of controlling the money supplies of most of the world.

 

Canada has always been the gem of the British Empire. For this reason, we continue to enjoy a higher standard of living than other colonies. But we must ask ourselves, are we not also expendable when push comes to shove? We have already experienced a major decline in our standard of living during the last 40 years, and we have no reason to expect that dynamic to change. With the monetary system disintegrating at an accelerating rate, Canadians should read the writing on the walls; we are next up on the chopping block of austerity.

 

Our once great country has been sold off piece by piece - from rail, to water, to energy. We have privatized everything that makes our economy thrive. Our minerals and resources are sold off to profit only the very rich rather than for the benefit of the citizens of Canada.

 

What should we do instead? Produce our way out of it. Fight to get our sovereignty back. While others are seeing the impending crisis as a potential catastrophe, let us choose to view it as a potential opportunity for a new system - a new system where we can be self sufficient as a nation, print our own money, nationalize our resources and make our own choices about how we will rebuild the country into a productive place of abundance and peace.

 

 

Physical Economics

 

We are lead to believe that if we work hard enough, we can leave something more for our children than we started with. Sadly, this has become almost impossible for anyone born into the working class. So many people have fallen into the debt trap, which is perpetuated by the materialist and consumerist nature of our society. The line between the middle class and lower class is growing hazier, and the wealth gap between rich and poor has never been so vast. The time and opportunities are upon us to introduce a new system of economics.

 

Carrying on the tradition of Lincoln, FDR, and Hamilton, Physical Economics focuses on an increasing ability to support life without sacrificing the living standard of the people or their environment. Through the development of new technologies and infrastructure, the efficiency of physical production is increased. This is made possible by the freeing and harnessing of the enormous creative potential of the human mind.

 

Physical production is what creates wealth - not bubbles, not pyramid or Ponzi schemes, not fictitious (toxic) paper assets that lay claim to the same items dozens of times over - and certainly not the endless printing of money  (which is continually printed, of course, for the purpose of speculation and bailing out the same speculators that gambled and lost your savings in the first place).

 

Canada needs to take on some international mega projects. This will stimulate a real economy, which gives people jobs, builds something that will give back to those people and their kin for generations. It also generates peace between nations, because nations that have a common interest in shared prosperity have no need for conflict, however their livelihood depends on peace.

 

Let’s look at one project that is on the table as a possibility right now.

 

The Bering Straight tunnel project:

The plan is to build infrastructure, which makes a physical link to every single location that the rail connects to. This would mean an overhaul of Canada’s rail infrastructure, making it high speed by implementing magnetic levitation technology. We would bridge the gap between Alaska and Eastern Russia in a combined effort to spread the principles and necessities of survival from economic collapse. This project could be extended to any nation that wishes to collaborate and enjoy the benefits of travel, trade and technology as well as sharing ideas and medicine.

 

This has to come along with a revolution in ideology on all levels of society.  Emphasis must be on developing and bettering the people through the exercise of national sovereignty.  Humanity is nearing the point of recognizing a self-evident universal revelation that the current disaster of the "killer capitalism" of unregulated greed, and the failure of "free market" ideology now requires a new paradigm.  A paradigm that places the general welfare of the people and humanity first.

 

This must all be done with a deliberate intention of freeing ourselves from foreign control. That means we are building alternatives to Free Trade and Globalization, as well as Monetarism. This is not a new idea; it is what the American Revolution was about. The defense of freedom and sovereignty is a fight that has continued since that time. The constitution embodies that spirit, but it needs to be resurrected. The principles contained inside must be spread to every nation that wants freedom and prosperity for its people.

This is not a new idea; it is the essence of what caused the American Revolution.  The defense of freedom and sovereignty is a fight that has continued since that time.  The Constitution of the U.S. embodies that spirit, a spirit that all nations and peoples in the current crisis are now beginning to yearn for.


What about the population problem?

Won’t further development lead to a higher population, which is only further increasing the starvation and suffering of people, and will ruin the environment?
First of all, there is nothing inherently evil about humans, and the same goes for development. By bringing 3rd and 4th world nations up to 1st world levels, we will be freeing them from their lives of toiling for survival.

 

They won’t need large families to help them struggle for a meager existence. As a matter of fact, the first world birthrate is not even enough to maintain current populations; this suggests a solution to the population problem if there was one. Contrarily, I say it is not a population problem, but a problem of resources, which can be easily remedied by creating innovative ways to produce and distribute everything and anything we need.

 

We are made to believe that we are no different from animals, and that we will naturally outgrow our resources, but the fact is that we have minds that allow us to act upon our environment pre-emptively and avoid the ‘Malthusian catastrophe’ that Prince Phillip says we’re heading for.

 

What was the American Revolution really about?

It was an effort to preserve the best principles of European Civilization from Europe itself. Europe had become despotic and overexploited. The only hope for a better system was to build a working model, but it would never survive in the belly of the beast. Contrary to what you learn from the "revisionist" school of history, many of the first settlers did not come here to conquer the land, and enslave the people. Rather, they wanted freedom from European Feudalistic slavery, and to create better system for anyone that would join them. They were under attack every step of the way by British Agents and other Imperial forces.

 

The attack on the American Constitution and ideals continues to this day, in the history books, at the Fed, and in the Congress.   That is because the sovereign and general welfare principles represented by the development of America, in the concept 'of the people, by the people, for the people' as enunciated in Lincoln's second inaugural address, are to this day the most serious threat to the empire.

 

I say we should reignite the old torch of freedom that America represents, and move for our own declaration of independence. If you have the fire of freedom burning in your heart, now is time to put it to use. The Infowar needs torch bearers.
