I posted in the "Wheat Board Aristocracy" thread about the "harmonization" council being set up under the latest SPP (NAU) agreement that Harper/Obama signed last week.
They stated that American "law enforcement" (Homeland Security) can operate on either side of the border under the excuse of international terrorism I suppose.
I am quite disappointed by this. I don't want anything to do with Amerika and their police state. Harper is selling our sovereignty down the river in order to "harmonize" with America, which mostly means that we take on American standards.
Food standards are an example of that. In the early 2000's they changed our Canadian standard to allow for more chemical residue on fresh produce.
I think the real reason for allowing foreign troops into Canada/America is to suppress unrest. America's military is pretty busy building empires right now, so if the economy continues to falter and Americans start rioting they will need someone to come in and manage the crowds.

I think you're reading too much into this.
There has been an informal agreement between Canada and the U.S. in terms of shared deployment of troops in time of a national emergency or an invasion.
IE Canadian Fighters deployed into American Airspace during 9/11 and were given landing rights as required.
Canadian Troops have been theoretically deployed in America with American units under the conditions of both troop exchanges and active duty for example under the terms of Norad.
Canadian Naval ships and personal were deployed into New Orleans.
American Troops deploy for long term exercises in Canada
I doubt very much that there is something sinister afoot in terms of Canadian Troops busting skulls in New York or American Troops rounding up dissident Canadians in Toronto.
The Mexican element is new, but the Canadian element is formalization of assumptive agreements and requirements.
