"Their aim is nothing less than to create a world system of financial
control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each
country and the economy of the world as a whole. The system was to be
controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world
acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private
meetings and conferences." ~ Professor Carroll Quigley
The Rockefeller links of Canadian politicians...
It may re-pay the reader to spend a few minutes tracing the connections
of Paul Desmarais and Power Corp. to the leading politicians, etc. of
Canada:
. JOHN RAE: leading strategist for Prime Minister Chretien's election
campaign. Was Executive Vice- President of Power Corp. and Paul
Desmarais' right- hand man. His brother is....
. BOB RAE: Rhodes Scholar and ex-NDP [Socialist] Premier of Ontario, who
appointed....
. MAURICE STRONG to the chairmanship of Ontario Hydro, which he
proceeded to dramatically cut in both skilled human resources and
generating capacity [to provide a future need for power from James
Bay/Grand Canal?]
. PAUL MARTIN: current federal Finance Minister. Rose through the ranks
at Power Corp., mentored by Paul Desmarais. Bought Canada Steamship
Lines from him. Ran against Chretien for Liberal Party leadership. He
attended the 1996 meeting of the Bilderberg Group, where those he
mingled with included - surprise! - David Rockefeller.
. JEAN CHRETIEN: Prime Minister. Daughter, France, is married to Andre
Desmarais, son of Paul Desmarais, chairman of Power Corporation.
Chretien's "advisor, counsellor and strategist" for the past 30 years
has been MITCHELL SHARP, who brought Chretien into politics when he was
Finance Minister. Sharp has been, since 1981, Vice-Chairman for North
America of David Rockefeller's TRILATERAL COMMISSION. Chretien attended
the 1996 meeting of the Bilderberg Group.
. DANIEL JOHNSON: present Liberal [and Opposition] leader in Quebec.
Rose through the ranks of Power Corp.
. BRIAN MULRONEY: ex-Conservative Prime Minister. Now a lawyer and
lobbyist for Power Corporation which, together with Ontario Hydro and
Hydro Quebec, has just formed the Hong Kong-based ASIA POWER CORP., to
help China to develop its energy potential. Power Corp.'s legal
interests in Asia will be handled by a Hong Kong branch of Mulroney's
Montreal law firm, Olgilvy, Renault. He is also a well-remunerated
member of the board of Archer-Daniels-Midland, a Rockefeller-owned
conglomerate, which is headed by Dwayne Andreas who, like Rockefeller
himself, is also a member of the elite and secretive Bilderberg Group.
. Mike Harris, Premier of Ontario, who headed off for a fishing weekend
at a remote Northern camp with George Bush and Paul Martin soon after
his election. Harris, like his colleague Ralph Klein, Premier of
Alberta, is also a Bilderberger.
So...we have the CONSERVATIVE party [via Mulroney], the LIBERAL party
[via Chretien], and the NDP [via Rae] all tightly connected to....Paul
Desmarais and Power Corp.
And we have the Prime Minister, the Finance Minister, and the Prime
Minister's key aide all tightly connected to....Paul Desmarais and Power
Corp.
Mel Hurtig wrote, in THE BETRAYAL OF CANADA:
"Since Brian Mulroney became Prime Minister, Big Business has had
effective control of the political and economic agenda, and hence the
social and cultural agenda as well. Paul Desmarais provided much of the
money for Pierre Trudeau's campaign, Brian Mulroney's campaign, and Jean
Chretien's campaign." [p.188]
Maurice Strong has now joined Brian Mulroney and Paul Desmarais in
investing the Asia Power Group's $100 million venture capital in "small
coal-fired power plants being built in the south of China". They are
also looking at "larger projects in northern China, as well as in
Malaysia, the Philippines and India." The Asian economies are expected
to spend $1 trillion [US] on essential infrastructure, of which an
estimated $400 billion [US] will be on power generation. Chinese and
Asian labour costs are low - as low, in China, as $45 per month - and
potential profits are high.
The Nov/Dec. 1993 issue of David Rockefeller's Council on Foreign
Relations' publication FOREIGN RELATIONS contains an article, THE RISE
OF CHINA, in which we are warned that China will begin to use more
energy than the United States within a few decades, massively straining
the world's energy supplies. Most of China's energy comes from the
burning of soft, high-sulphur, highly- polluting coal. In 1991 alone, 11
trillion cubic meters of waste gases and sixteen million tons of soot
were emitted into the atmosphere over China - and it has only just begun
its long process of increased energy generation!
The suphur in this coal causes acid rain. The burning of the coal
releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the most efficient
"greenhouse gas" in the global warming process.
The warmer the climate becomes, the greater the need for fresh water in
Mexico and the southern United States - and the more urgent the need for
a GRAND Canal project to get it there. An astute businessman could, if
he were so inclined, potentially make astronomical profits off both ends
of this process!
Oh, and Paul Desmarais?
In September, 1993, he joined David Rockefeller's Trilateral Commission.
He won't feel out-of-place there, though. Other prominent Canadian
members include Gerald Bouey [former Governor of the Bank of Canada];
Conrad Black, newspaper magnate and chairman of Argus; John Allen, CEO
of Stelco; Raymond Cyr, President of Bell Canada Enterprises; Peter
Dobell, of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade, in Ottawa; Marie-Jose
Druin, Hudson Institute of Canada; Claude Edwards, Public Staff
Relations Board in Ottawa; Allan Gottlieb, former Canadian Ambassador to
the U.S.; David Henniger, Regional Director of Burns, Fry; Senator Duff
Roblin; Ron Sutherland, CEO of ATCO Ltd., William Turner, of Montreal's
PCC Industrial Corporation; and J.H. Warren, former Canadian Ambassador
to the U.S.
[And, of course, Quebec Premier Jacques Parizeau was also in the habit
of frequently briefing meetings of David Rockefeller's Council on
Foreign Relations in Washington; and Lucien Bouchard, separatist PQ
leader, was brought into politics by Brian Mulroney, whose last act in
Ottawa was to host a black-tie dinner for 200 members of Rockefeller's
Council of the Americas, who flew up on Rockefeller's private jet to
celebrate the successful negotiation of NAFTA - another Rockefeller
innovation]

TORONTO STAR RUNS MAJOR ARTICLE
ON
SECRET TORONTO BILDERBERG MEETING!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: John Whitley 416-481 4848 fax 416-322

TORONTO, 31st May--The elite and secretive Bilderbergers are not used to
choking on their breakfasts, but that's what many of them probably did
this morning if they opened today's TORONTO STAR, or tuned into
Toronto's 680-NEWS radio station.
The TORONTO STAR ran a virtually full-page story, complete with an
illustrated list of the immensely powerful but publicity-shy attendees,
on the secretive 1996 Bilderberg Conference on the front page of its
widely-read Business Section.
The detailed and revealing story, headlined BIG HITTERS GATHER: Vast
Array Of International VIP's Talk Things Over At Secretive Bilderberg
'96 In King City, noted that "[Conrad] Black, media baron and chairman
of Hollinger Inc., and other permanent members of the group, are unhappy
at suggestions by extremists of the left and right that the private
event is part of a system of secret government."
This is the first time in the history of the Bilderberg Conferences that
a major newspaper has ever scrutinized them in such a fashion. Normally,
Bilderberg meetings are not even mentioned in the main-line media.
Bilderbergers are not accustomed to have to provide explanations to
anyone, particularly since certain of their members own or control major
metropolitan newspapers, newspaper chains and wire services.
TORONTO STAR Business Reporter John Deverell quoted Black as stating
that the secrecy surrounding Bilderberg meetings has "no purpose other
than to allow leading citizens to speak their minds openly and freely."
The list of such "leading citizens", who Black stated "attend Bilderberg
in a private and not an official capacity", includes among its
hand-picked ranks such international financiers as Andrew Soros and
David Rockefeller, European bluebloods like the Queens of the
Netherlands and Spain, U.S. government officials like Defence Secretary
William Perry and Senior Advisor to the President George Stephanopolous,
U.S. Senator Sam Nunn, the NATIONAL REVIEW's William Buckley, ex-U.S.
government luminaries Lloyd Bentsen [former Treasury Secretary] and
Henry Kissinger, and distinguished "international citizens" like Peter
Sutherland [former director-general of GATT and the WTO] and World Bank
President James Wolfensohn.
Canadian attendees include Frederik Eaton, of the major department store
chain; Paul Martin, Finance Minister; Jean Chretien, the Prime Minister
of Canada; Red Wilson, Chairman of Bell Canada Enterprises; Ted Rogers,
the communications and cable mogul; Al Flood, Chairman of the Canadian
Imperial Bank of Commerce; and Ontario Premier Mike Harris.
"Security was barely visible at the [King] Ranch yesterday, " Deverell
reported. He quoted James Tucker, a reporter for THE SPOTLIGHT newspaper
in Washington D.C., who is an experienced Bilderberger watcher, as
commenting "This is very low-key. In Switzerland, where they had this
last year, they brought out the Swiss Army."
According to Deverell's detailed report, "This year's topics include the
enlargement of the European Union, the problems of former Yugoslavia,
relations with China and Russia and obstacles to economic growth."
The TORONTO STAR, a liberal paper with a record of award-winning
journalism and superb investigative articles, is one of the few
remaining independent newspapers in Canada.
At 7:45 this morning, 680-NEWS, a popular news radio station with a
large metro Toronto audience, carried the following report which was
re-aired at intervals as part of their news schedule:
Dick Smythe: "Well, this sounds like the plot of a conspiracy movie, as
the world's movers and shakers meet in secret. Conrad Black is holding
his annual Bilderberg Conference. Here's 680's Karen Parsons...
Reporter: "About one hundred notables, including the Queens of the
Netherlands and Spain, along with Henry Kissinger, the U.S. Defence
Secretary William Perry and our Prime Minister, have gathered for the
conference. Also along, the heads of Ford Motor Company, Xerox, the Bank
of Commerce and Reuters. Black says there is a ban on reporters, so
discussion will be intimate and candid. He says "exchanges can often be
quite heated." Participants are required to take a vow of silence. Last
year's conference was held in three mountaintop luxury hotels in
Switzerland. This year, it's at a $60 million dollar luxury spa in King
City." Canadian Press also distributed a brief report on the
previously-secret meeting, which was published today by, among other
newspapers, the TORONTO SUN. The major Toronto media and news services
were first alerted to this well-concealed gathering by Press Releases
from the Toronto-based NEW WORLD ORDER INTELLIGENCE UPDATE, the Web site
address for which is
http://home.inforamp.net/~jwhitley/.
THE NEW WORLD ORDER INTELLIGENCE UPDATE has also learned, through its
own sources, that the 1996 Bilderberg Conference will also be discussing
the planned breakup of Canada by way of a 1997 Unilateral Declaration of
Independence by Quebec, with the ultimate goal being Continental Union
by the year 2005; the planned privatization sale of Ontario Hydro, a
source of vast profits for well-placed investors; and certain of the
Draconian recommendations included in the 1995 Report of the elite's
Commission on Global Governance, OUR GLOBAL NEIGHBORHOOD.
Despite the disarming disclaimer that the Bilderberg is just an
innocuous group of "private citizens", drawn together to discuss the
world's ills and opportunities privately and therefore uninhibitedly,
solid evidence exists that this is not the case.
In his groundbreaking 1966 1300-page book, TRAGEDY AND HOPE, Professor
Carroll Quigley, a distinguished faculty member at the Georgetown
University School of Foreign Service and a member of "insider" elite
organizations sharing membership with the Bilderbergers, confirmed that
an international "network" of wealthy and influential personages did
indeed secretly control world events through private conferences,
consensus, and concerted action. He wrote: "This network, which we may
identify as the Round Table Groups, has no aversion to cooperating with
the Communists or any other group, and frequently does so. I know of the
operations of this network because I have studied it for twenty years
and was permitted, for two years, in the early 1960's, to examine its
papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to most of its
aims and I have, for much of my life, been close to it and to many of
its instruments."
No one can accuse Dr. Quigley of having been either an "extremist" or a
"conspiratorialist." His students spoke of him in awed tones as "a
genius." One of his more distinguished students, President Bill Clinton
[who was "anointed" for the Presidency by the Bilderbergers at their
June, 1991 Baden-Baden meeting] has referred to Professor Quigley
publicly on several occasions as having had an outstanding and formative
influence on his view of the world. Professor Quigley summarized this
"network's" grand plan in this way:
"Their aim is nothing less than to create a world system of financial
control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each
country and the economy of the world as a whole. The system was to be
controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world
acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private
meetings and conferences."
Thus, the secrecy which surrounds Bilderberger meetings.
Not surprisingly, TRAGEDY AND HOPE, though written by Professor Quigley
with the aim of recruiting support among more "enlightened" academics,
publishers, politicians, labour leaders and business magnates for a
planned New World Order, the foundations of which had already largely
been laid, revealed too much. Within months of its publication, it was
abruptly withdrawn by Macmillan, its publishers.
Please note that, after sustained Internet exposure of the secret GRAND
CANAL project during the last Quebec referendum, Premier Jaques Parizeau
announced that the final, necessary, expansion of the James Bay dam
system was "cancelled". A subsequent Quebec Hydro Press Release,
however, declared it only "postponed until after 2005" - the projected
date for Canada-U.S. Continental Union! The GRAND CANAL project will
turn Canada's fresh water resources into a river of "liquid gold" for
its elite backers, some of whom are Bilderberg members.
