The recent article "Michael Douglas backs U.N. gun ban" (worldnetdaily . com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=50407) leads us on a wild ride through the fevered imaginations of globalists everywhere:

Actor Michael Douglas – who for many years has been designated by the United Nations as a "U.N. peace messenger" – is backing the global body's upcoming conference on small arms trafficking.

In a public service announcement, Douglas "spotlights the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons and promotes an upcoming U.N. conference aimed at addressing the problem," according to the U.N. News Center.

The controversial conference wins the prize for having the longest name in memory: "The U.N. Conference to Review Progress Made in the Implementation of the Program of Action to Prevent, Combat and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons." It is scheduled for July 26 through July 7 in New York City...

That leads to 1999's "The 40-year gun grab" (worldnetdaily . com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=17280):

...David Patterson, deputy historian at the State Department, downplayed the possible significance of Freedom From War and the Blueprint for the Peace Race (dosfan.lib.uic . edu/ERC/arms/freedom_war.html) -- identifying them as "part of the propaganda war."

"It's a recurring issue which conservative groups would put forward as an example of how we were willing to capitulate to the Soviet Union during the Cold War -- disarm unilaterally," Patterson said. "Of course, none of this was true, but it's still going the rounds of right-wing publications. We get these calls."

Along the same lines comes a 2/27/05 radio interview (pay only, not listened to) described thusly (surfingtheapocalypse . net/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?noframes;read=59028):

Michael Corbin interviews Gui Caron with Council of Canadians. They received a leaked confidential report on North American Integration. This council met to discuss the integration of Canada, the United States and Mexico into a new North American country through NAFTA. Read this confidential report (in PDF format) by clicking here. This report is a warning of things to come in that this group, which is comprised of the Council on Foreign Relations, the Mexican Council on Foreign Relations, and the Canadian Council of Chief Executives are planning on launching a massive campaign to introduce a new slogan for the new North American country, together with a new currency, and strict security measures that will involve a National ID Card. Charlotte Iserbyt, author of The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America, joined during the second half of the hour to discuss the US National ID Card program, which is being designed and implemented by two high-ranking former Soviet KGB officers, who are working within the Department of Homeland Security.

And, believe it or don't, there's even a WP page on the Amero, the proposed North American currency.
