Security, Prosperity, North America, and media bias

At the end of the month, George W Bush (U.S.) will be meeting with Vicente Fox (Mexico) and Stephen Harper (Canada) in Cancun. Among other topics, they'll be discussing what amounts to turning the United States into part of an EU-style superstate:

The "New Partnership in North America": double-plus NAFTA
White House press secretary Scott McClellan said the [Bush and Fox] also discussed the Security and Prosperity Partnership among the United States, Mexico and Canada."How best to succeed" translates into "how to get what we want before the people catch on." Unfortunately, that won't require much work, since the press reports before and after the conference will no doubt be highly similar to the current one. Let's watch this and see if any reporters or sources cover exactly what this means.
Under that initiative outlined last year at the Texas summit, the three countries, which are joined in the North American Free Trade Agreement, pledged to develop a common security strategy and promote "economic growth and competitiveness and quality of life."
The leaders are expected to review progress on the initiative at Cancun, fine-tune it and make new recommendations on how best to proceed.

Open borders. About the best assessment of open borders that I've ever read came from the late statesman George F. Kennan who said that the massive immigration to the US will end naturally (that is, without the US actually closing the borders and enforcing the law) "only when the levels of overpopulation and poverty in the United States are equal to those of the countries from which these people are now anxious to escape."
By then, of course, it's too late to do anything and the quality of life in the US is completely destroyed.
