Elite 'Bilderberg Group' meeting in Canada

One of the most elite meetings in the world is taking place right now in Canada called the Bilderberg group. The problem with these CEOs, politicians, and other well to do's meeting secretly is that they have the ability to shape global policy without any input from the people who they are influencing. This yearly meeting has gained some mainstream news thanks to Jim Tucker who has been sneaking into the meetings for years.

Kanata hotel hosts high-level power group

CBC News | June 9 2006

A serene setting in Ottawa's west-end Kanata suburb has been transformed into a four-day festival of black suits, black limousines, burly security guards and a bevy of conspiracy theories.

The security outside the Brookstreet Hotel is much tighter than it is on Parliament Hill. Inside, the CBC was told, all guests were asked to check out at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday.

The hotel appears to be hosting the annual meeting of one of the world's most secretive and powerful societies: the Bilderberg group. But, of course, no one will admit it.

The Bilderberg group includes European royalty, national leaders, political power brokers, and the heads of some of the world's largest companies.

The "Bilderberg" title comes from what is generally recognized to be the location of its first official meeting in 1954 — the Hotel de Bilderberg in Oosterbeek near Arnhem in the Netherlands.

People who follow the Bilderberg group say it persuaded Europe to adopt a common currency, and, among other things, persuaded Bill Clinton to support the North American Free Trade Agreement.

They say the members of the Bilderberg group will spend this week deciding what to do about high oil prices and how to lessen the instability of Iran.

"David Rockefeller is going to be here. Henry Kissinger is going to be here. Wolfowitz, the president of the World Bank, is going to be here. Rodrigo [de] Rato, who is the president of the International Monetary Fund, is going to be here," says Daniel Estulin, who has written a book about the Bilderberg group.

Another author, Jim Tucker, who has followed the Bilderberg group for the last 30 years, told CBC News he is troubled by all the secrecy.

"Officials of the United States government [should not] have a private meeting with private citizens about public policy," Tucker says.

He says some of the world's most pressing issues will be discussed at the meeting in Kanata.

"Of course, Iraq [will be discussed], whether we invade Iran. I think I'm personally sure the European Bilderbergs will oppose any all-out invasion of Iran. They may go along with surgical strikes — something short of a land invasion — this is what I think, not what I know," Tucker says.

Officials at the Brookstreet Hotel said there was nothing special going on there Thursday. However, they can't explain why the hotel parking lot has been cleared of all cars, and there are security guards at every entrance.
This link has a partial who's who of a past Bildeberg meeting. It's amazing that this many high profile people can meet together with hardly a blurb in the national media.

Apparently John Edward's performance at the Bilderberg meeting was the reason he was chosen to be the VP candidate.

Bilderberg 'performance'
key to Edwards VP pick
'He reported back directly to Kerry' said participant in super-secret conference


Sen. John Edwards' standout "performance" at the super-secret Bilderberg meeting in Italy last month may have been a key reason for his selection as John Kerry's vice presidential running mate, according to the New York Times.

The 50th anniversary conference of the elite group – which many believe conspires semi-annually to foster global government – met June 3 through June 6 in Stresa, Italy, at the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromees.
Here's a blog about the event, the actual website in the headline has embedded links and references.

Bilderberg Mafia Comes Under Scrutiny Of Canadian Media
How long before kingmakers forced to retreat to secret island?

Paul Joseph Watson/Prison Planet.com | June 9 2006

The Canadian media has already blitzed its American counterparts by producing a rash of reports about the secretive Bilderberg Group meeting in Ottawa as the conference enters its second day.

In 2002 Bilderberg met in Virginia Washington yet not one American newspaper or TV station reported on a confab which is routinely attended by the most influential politicos in the world.

That trend has totally reversed this time around, with the Canadian media already pumping out more reports than we saw for the entire duration of last year's conference in Germany. These include several pieces by the Ottawa Citizen, as well as the Globe and Mail and the Ottawa Sun. A Canadian Press article has also been syndicated to numerous different outlets nationwide.

A handful of separate reports also covered the grueling 15 hour detainment of Alex Jones by Canadian immigration authorities at the request of Bilderberg security.

The Canadian media should be commended for doing their job - putting the lapdog American media to shame - and shining a spotlight on an organization that steers the course of geopolitics yet operates with no democratic oversight whatsoever.

If this sea change continues at next year's meeting, how long before the skulking kingpins of the global criminal elite are forced to cut their shadowy deals on a remote private island?

The 2006 Bilderberg participant list is out and it includes names such as, "New York Governor George Pataki, deputy prime minister of Iraq Ahmad Chalabi, the heads of Coca-Cola, Credit Suisse, the Royal Bank of Canada, a number of media moguls, and cabinet ministers from Spain and Greece."

Regulars David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger and Queen Beatrix of Holland are also in attendance as well as, "Jorma Ollila, chairman of Royal Dutch Shell, Egil Myklebust, chairman of Scandinavian Airlines, World Bank president James Wolfenson, and Frank McKenna, former New Brunswick premier and ex-Canadian ambassador to the U.S."

The Ottawa Sun is even running a poll asking readers what they think the main topic of discussion will be at Bilderberg this year, with a majority of 34% thinking it will be oil prices and 25% the war on terror. It also quotes Alex Jones and discusses his ordeal with Canadian immigration.

"These guys love secrecy -- 125 of the most elite people on the planet meeting together and setting policy," Jones said. "It's diabolical -- world government, global taxation. On the agenda here, they're debating (an impending) attack on Iran."

Following his arrival in one of the fleet of limousines tagged with a 'B' for identification, The Ottawa Citizen approached arch Neo-Con warmonger Richard Perle and challenged him on the question of whether Bilderberg directs the course of world policy, specifically in relation to oil prices considering the large amount of representatives from the industry who attend.

"If it did, I'd be trading on oil futures," snapped Perle.

The fact is that during last year's conference in Rottach-Egern, Bilderberg luminaries 'forecasted' the dramatic rise in oil prices. A year ago oil stood at $40 a barrel - now it's $70.

The BBC also uncovered Bilderberg documents dating back to the 1950's showing that the subsequent EU common market and the Euro was originally the brainchild of Bilderberg.

Perle told former Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien that he would be embarrassed when weapons of mass destruction were found after chastising him for not sending troops into Iraq in 2003.

A separate Ottawa Sun report carries an intriguing story of a daring reporter's attempt to infiltrate the Bilderberg's hotel, which has been closed to ordinary members of the public and is protected by both police and private security firm Globe Risk.

Ottawa cops even have to identify themselves to Globe Risk officials before being allowed near the hotel. What does that tell you about how Bilderberg place their authority above the law to which the rest of us are subject?

Another firm, Iron Horse Security are employed to guard the rear entrance of the hotel and look like they've just arrived from a funeral, having been ordered to buy black suits for the occasion.

Alex Jones and team are now in place and ready to dig deeper into what the Bilderberg agenda is shaping up to be in the coming year.

More reports to follow throughout the weekend.

I'm wondering if anyone has ever heard of this group that has been meeting since the 1950s, and what your opinion is of the group in regards to whether or not these people have a significant effect on geo-political issues.
