I'm stunned!  I just ran across a document entitled "NORTH AMERICAN FUTURE 2025 PROJECT".  Some of you have probably seen it, if not here's a link: http://www.canadians.org/water/documents/NA_Future_2025.pdf  

The document is rather lenghtly, but here's an excerpt:

 "...

SUMMARY

The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) proposes to conduct a research project that will examine the future strategic issues facing North America projecting out to the year 2025. The results of the study will enable policymakers to make sound, strategic, long-range policy decisions about North America, with an emphasis on regional integration.

Specifically, the project will focus on a detailed examination of future scenarios, which are based on current trends, and involve six areas of critical importance to the trilateral relationship: labor mobility, energy, the environment, security, competitiveness, and border infrastructure and logistics...

"PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In order to strengthen the capacity of Canadian, U.S., and Mexican administration officials and that of their respective legislatures to analyze, comprehend, and anticipate North American integration, the CSIS North America Project proposes to carry out a series of seven closed-door roundtable sessions...

The  final deliverable will be a report on options and policy recommendations on the future of North American integration that will be presented in September 2007 to the executive and legislative branches of the three governments of North America. The report will be produced in the three official languages—English, Spanish, and French—as part of an effective dissemination strategy aimed at maximizing the policy impact of the report..."

 

This document was purportedly published by Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).  I went to their website and found the following (I think you'll recognize some of the names):

"Board of Trustees and Counselors
