2400 Canadian Soldiers and the 1 Combat Engineer Regiment based in Edmonton Alberta are on a 72 Hour notice for deployment to the U.S. Gulf Coast.
The 1 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group (1 CMBG) frequently train with U.S. Army units including up to a 3 year secondment in the U.S. Military for Career Officers. The Canadian Engineer Regiment is often associated with the British SAS and their role in recent conflicts such as Bosnia and Afghanistan has seen them doing less reconstruction work and more urban pacification and counter insurgency operations.
Canada and the U.S. have signed an agreement that paves the way for the militaries from either nation to send troops across each other’s borders during an emergency, but some are questioning why the Harper government has kept silent on the deal.
Neither the Canadian government nor the Canadian Forces announced the new agreement, which was signed Feb. 14 in Texas
Gen. Gene Renuart, and Canadian Lt.-Gen. Marc Dumais, head of Canada Command, signed the plan, which allows the military from one nation to support the armed forces of the other nation in a civil emergency.
The new agreement has been greeted with suspicion by the left wing in Canada and the right wing in the U.S.
There is potential for the agreement to militarize civilian responses to emergency incidents. Also underway is a plan for the two nations to put in place a joint plan to protect common infrastructuresuch as roadways and oil pipelines.
If U.S. forces were to come into Canada they would be under tactical control of the Canadian Forces but still under the command of the U.S. military.
News of the deal, and the allegation it was kept secret in Canada, is already making the rounds on left-wing blogs and Internet sites as an example of the dangers of the growing integration between the two militaries.
On right-wing blogs in the U.S. it is being used as evidence of a plan for a “North American union” where foreign troops, not bound by U.S. laws, could be used by the American federal government to override local authorities.
“Co-operative militaries on Home Soil!” notes one website. “The next time your town has a ‘national emergency,’ don’t be surprised if Canadian soldiers respond.”
They are foreign troops on our soil. It doesn’t matter who signed what or why they are here, they are foreign troops. Period. They will be treated as such at the first hint of policing us.
I hope you folks in Canada know what your sons will be walking into.
Well, this is dubious at best. That number would be an entire mechanized brigade group, if it went to 72 hour NTM I probably would have heard about it since a lot of friends of mine are in that organization, to say nothing of the fact that even if such a deployment was to happen, it’d be to assist in cleaning up as good neighbours do, like we did after Hurricane Katrina. This paranoid NWO bullshit is retarded.
Nick,
Yeah clean up after Katrina, does that include the confiscation of firearms from law abiding citizens that were left with no means of defense against criminals?!? We are a sovereign nation and as such we don’t need your military on US soil, hell the President won’t even deploy our own…so stay in Canada, we’ll clean it up ourselves!
