aimee m Powerful United States inter- ‘ests closely linked to that coun- try’s space program are the real promoters of a Madison Avenue “snow job” designed” to seize control. of Canada’s vast water resources, The main profit hungry U.S. coporation involved isthe T.R.W. Systems (Space Technology Lab- oratories) of Redonda Beach, California, They are the main technical managers of the ATLAS, THOR, TITAN and MIN- UTEMAN guided missile projects in the U,S,, and consequently in- timately connected with the ex- pansionist military - industrial complex pushing the Vietnam war. In the September 1965 issue of Scientific American, a highly reputable U.S, magazine, T.R,W. have inserted a full page adver- tisement . (see reproduction) which shows that they have taken over the so-called NAWAPA or Parsons Plan, This plan would drain off the entire flow of five large Canadian rivers to the United States for the benefit of U.S. war industries want B.C. water ec BSS ON Pe Throw support behind big diversion scheme their industry and agriculture. Only incidentally would Canada receive anything from this plan. The ad is diabolically clever, since it tries to create the im- pression of a collective joyous occasion — a rain dance, The plan is anything but a collective effort, It is an outright grab of other people’s resources, and the only dance involved is now shown to be a dance of death, The strug- gle to resist this plan is now joined with the general struggle to achieve world peace, Two years ago American in- terests were successful in se- curing control of the Columbia River in Canada. The struggle to defeat NAWAPA will require a unity of action far surpassing anything seen before in this coun- try. This time Canadian patriots and supporters of peace, more clearly aware of the vast stakes involved, will unite to achieve victory for the independent peaceful development of Canada’s water resources, And in truth, that will be the joyous occasion!
