Bruce Stokes, CFR Senior Fellow

Globalist think tank explores most effective ways to shift Americans
national identity and ideas of sovereignty into alignment with a
"North American Consciousness" - Panelists see America as the
"greatest obstacle" to "North American Integration"

"This is how we will create a North American consciousness and a true North American Community. It will be forged in the heat of conflict, not through a rational discussion, as painful as that may be. It really cannot happen any other way." - Bruce Stokes, CFR Senior Fellow, speaking at the "Toward a North American Community?" conference, June 11, 2002
