As if the various free trade agreements werent enough, the latest big idea coming from the likes of the CD Howe Institute is deep integration.
</p><p>
This rather creepy sounding term is code for such initiatives as:
</p><p><ul>
<li> a common security perimeter with the US
<li> a North American identity card
<li> adopting the US dollar as our currency
<li> opening up our health care system to US health care providers.
</ul></p><p>
The Council of Canadians is organizing public forums across the country to explore these issues and to develop a strategy to oppose deep integration.
