Iskra - Deep Integration lyrics

The Western Empire continues its ongoing holocaust Military ma**acres and economics fused into d**hlock Enforcing a "free market" that supports the multinationals Globalization: a race to ensnare the world's resources Using an undefined "terrorist" threat To justify oppressive law and policy This is the United Snakes new Cold War Creating a climate of tension and anxiety Sovereign nations forced into lockstep Potential targets for economic structural adjustment This is how the US threatens Canada and Mexico As we near the final stages of total a**imilation A Canada-US economic strategy they call "Deep Integration" The brainchild of that scum who brought Free Trade to this nation These agents of exploitation advocate a vast rage of new measures None of which serve the common people, only wealthy investors The "Big Idea" a "Strategic Bargain" Promising Canada "economic security" In trade for Ballistic Missile Defense And "Canadian Homeland Security" The final d**hblow for Canada, a pathetic puppet nation Will we be prepared to fight extensive US exploitation? A ma**ive loss of civil rights and whatever's left of our "sovereignty" They'll take our liberty, our lives, our freedom Ten years of NAFTA and fifteen of the bilateral FTA Our puppet politicians have sold us all away Starting with Mulroney and his cronies two decades ago A money grab for the rich in exchange for US control The beginning of the end for any progressive programs The green light for the right and their exploitive institutions Enhancing capital mobility by hamstringing governments A necessary step in the transfer of power from workers to management A transfer of power from public to market; from wages to profit Under the guise of a "war on the deficit;" a negative social adjustment Cuts to unemployment insurance, tax breaks for upper income groups Ensures a rise in poverty, homelessness, prostitution, violent crime and police abuse Health insurance, hospitals and prisons: all slated for privatization Sold by the capitalists of this nation to US corporations The undermining of progressive policies within society A typical capitalist plan, the usual tactics and strategies Canada is now for grabs, big business will define our reality They'll destroy the environment and have us all live in misery We're not patriotic; we'll spit on the graves of all states Such issues concern the environment we depend upon anda decent way of life Under "continentalist" rule we'll be servants of the Right Diverse tactics and knowledge are necessary in order to win this fight
