The FDA is engaged in illegal conferencing with regulatory counterparts in Canada & Mexico for the purpose of creating one set of "harmonized" food and drug regulations for ALL THREE COUNTRIES: http://www.fda.gov/oia/charter.html

This is part of the planned destruction of America. It is part of a plan to force America into a "NORTH AMERICAN UNION" patterned after the EU.

See: "Building a North American Community" http://www.cfr.org/publication/8102/building_a_north_american_community.html

FDA is attempting to get AROUND the will of the American people and the will of congress thru this conferencing which the PEOPLE of Canada, the US and Mexico have no input into.

In the SCOPE section at http://www.fda.gov/oia/charter.html, FDA says this:

SCOPE OF WORK
"The Trilateral Cooperation serves the mutual interests of all three countries and provides a forum for participants to discuss effective means for achieving its mission. Joint problem-solving techniques and consensual decision-making processes are used in reaching resolution of issues in a way that advances public health and gives consideration to the economic impact of health fraud. To avoid duplication and overlap, the Trilateral Cooperation should not deal with issues that are being discussed in other fora unless requested to do so as a means of solving a specific problem affecting the three countries or unless directed to do so by the Heads of Delegation. The Committee recognizes that the work under the Trilateral Cooperation is not a substitute for bilateral cooperation, nor does it impose obligations on its counterparts. Countries should use existing and new fora to discuss bilateral issues."

HOW IS THIS A THREAT?

We must never forget how the FDA and their international counterparts define "health fraud."

The world’s FDA’s function as trade associations for pharmaceutical companies. They are paid millions of dollars in fees from the pharmaceutical companies to put Rx drugs thru their less than scientific "approval process." Furthermore, there is a revolving door between the drug companies and the FDA as many leave the FDA to go to work for the drug companies.

The FDA’s defines "health fraud" to encompass any health claim made about any non patentable natural substance, regardless of how true it is, if it cuts into the sale of Rx drugs. They also consider health fraud to include any non mainstream, alternative medical approach (any approach not involving the use of patented prescription or OTC drugs that have been thru their so called "approval" process.

Read "Why is the FDA Picking on Cherries? "http://www.lef.org/magazine/mag2006/mar2006_cover_cherries_01.htm and you’ll see the the FDA is currently attacking the Cherry Industry, threatening to start raiding cherry orchards, unless the industry stops making health claims about the therapeutic effects of Cherries that are endorsed by the US Department of Agriculture.

"The FDA does not want the cherry industry to tell people that recent studies show that cherries contain substances that are potentially 10 times stronger than aspirin or ibuprofen for relieving pain. It does not want the public to know that substances in cherries may kill cancer cells and prevent cancer. It makes no difference whether these statements are true. What’s important is that the public not be told that a natural substance (cherries) has been shown to work as well as or better than an unnatural one (ibuprofen)."

"Only drugs, according to the FDA’s legal doctrine, can prevent, treat, mitigate, or cure disease. If something does those things, it’s a drug. And if it’s a drug, it has to be tested for its ability to do those things. In this double-speak world, no natural substance can do anything significant against disease-that is, unless it undergoes testing as a drug. Attempts at slaying this many-headed monster of convoluted truths have only made it grow new heads."

The FDA is claiming that statements made by the Cherry Industry on their websites are an extension of the labelling of their products, and they’re pressuring the Cherry industry to stop making these claims. The Cherry Industry is fighting back in the courts claiming that the FDA is violating their First Amendment Right to free speech. Efforts are underway to get a bill through congress called the Health Freedom Protection Act to stop this FDA censorship.

The pharmaceutical industry and the FDA’s of Canada, the USA and Mexico have no USE for national laws that "interfere" with Pharma’s efforts to block the use of natural products. They have no USE for the US Constitution and its First Amendment. They have no use for laws like DSHEA, or the Health Freedom Protection Act so they’re all in FAVOR of ABOLISHING AMERICA and forcing all 3 countries together into the planned NORTH AMERICAN UNION, where we’d have much less input into the legislative process than we do now and everything would be dictated to us.

The FDA is in clear violation of the Administrative Procedure’s Act, and the Federal Advisory Committee’s Act via this conferencing, and I want Congress to rein them in via Oversight Hearings and direct intervention to stop this.
