"TORONTO - Global market fundamentalism and U.S. attempts at international cooperation have failed and given rise to a new world order, one dominated by China, says George Soros, the billionaire philanthropist whose forays into politics have made more headlines lately than his massive hedge fund profits."

As a main player in the economic downfall of 2009 (also one of the few people to make a lot of money from it), it is not surprising that Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty, and Research In Motion co-CEO Jim Balsillie awarded Soro's with the CIC Globalist of the Year award on November 15 2010, in Toronto.

CIC (Canadian International Council) is just one of a vast network of Canadian think tanks that focus on globalization. We have written about the CIGI globalism school in Kitchener/Waterloo, that is run by Jim Balsillie. We have also seen what kind of a job Mark Carney and Jim Flaherty have done. In there time in office, the Canadian economy and marketplace has taken a nose dive, and there is still no end in sight.

So as hard working Canadians are loosing their jobs, everything is OK. Because the banking elite of this country are focusing on giving out awards for globalist of the year! Who need to focus on fixing our economy, and preserving our national sovereignty when we can give out awards to elite criminals!

Soro's joins some great company with the likes of WTO Director-General Pascal Lamy, who was the 2009 globalism award winner.

Jim Balsillie was chairman of RIM (makers of Blackberry cell phones), and currently holds the titles of co-CEO and director of the company.

He has made headlines over the last several years, not to mention tremendous popularity for trying to bring an NHL hockey team to the city of Hamilton Ontario twice.

Here is what the main stream media has not been covering. Jim and an international think tank called CIGI.

About CIGI (from their website)

The Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI) is an international think tank, founded in 2001. CIGI's main purpose is to address international governance challenges through world-class research. CIGI strives to identify and generate ideas for global change by studying, advising and networking with scholars, practitioners and governments on the character and desired reforms to multilateral governance issues. Through conferences, workshops, publications, public events and technology, CIGI aims to raise capacity to effect change in public policy both in Canada and around the world. CIGI gratefully acknowledges the support of the Government of Canada and the Government of Ontario.

But an even more disturbing development was created in 2007. The Balsillie School of International Affairs.

The Balsillie School of International Affairs is an independent academic institution devoted to the study of international affairs and global governance. The school will assemble a critical mass of extraordinary experts to understand, explain and shape the ideas that will create effective global governance. More HERE


This school is teaching its students programs such as: International Economic Governance, Global and Human Security, International Law, Institutions and Diplomacy, and Shifting Global Order. In other words, a University for the future employee's of the new world order.

Jim Balsille is not alone in the project though. Other financial contributors include:

Scotiabank
TD Friends of the Environment Foundation
The University of Waterloo
Wilfrid Laurier University

an anonymous benefactor contributed a multi-million dollar donation in support of The African Initiative, a five-year CIGI program that will research, assess and develop policy solutions to address the socio-economic impacts of climate change on the African continent.

The School also receive next to no media coverage, unless it is a useless report like this CTV story

Having a school devoted to global governance, funded by globalist organizations and governments, a front man that has large amounts of popularity in the area, and gets no media coverage = A very bad situation!

In a free country, with people who want to keep their national identity. A school for global governance just does not fit. The globalism that is being taught to the students of The Balsillie School of International Affairs will eradicate Canada's sovereignty through free trade, economics unions, eventually a governmental union called the North American Union, and then the world government.

We need to raise the awareness of educational institutions like this not only in Canada but around the world. Without them, the elite's will not be able to have trained and educated global governance "leaders" in the future.
