Third Annual Secessionist Convention
Manchester NH 11/14-16
November 4, 2008
At the end of one of the most divisive national campaigns in
history, what lesson can be drawn about the deep fissures throughout the
society?
After a financial meltdown of unprecedented proportions, how can
citizens restore economic security and long-term stability?
What can be done to reinstate government of, by, and for the people
instead of just the few wealthiest and most powerful interests?
How can our traditional Constitutional liberties be reinvigorated
after years of assault?
How can we effectively create a secure and independent energy future?
What can be done to enable citizens to feel more connected with
their community?
How can 305 million people spread over 3.8 million square miles
govern themselves and restore democracy?
The answer, for the delegates to the Third North American
Secessionist Convention, is... secession. The meeting, to be held at
the Radisson Hotel in Manchester, New Hampshire, on November 14-16, is
getting unexpected attention because it is coming after a massive
billion-dollar presidential campaign and a financial meltdown that have
underscored the public's sense that the country has been headed in the
wrong direction.
A featured speaker is Nova Scotia’s Sebastian Ronin, founder of the
Novacadia Alliance. His topic is “Post-Peak Oil and North American
Regional Secession.” He will focus on the idea of an independent
Atlantic federation of Canadian maritime provinces and northern New
England states. Of late there is a renewed interest in the idea,
especially in maritime Canada.
Delegates are expected from a majority of the three-dozen current
secessionist organizations in the U.S. and Canada, including the Alaska
Independence Party and the Maine Militia’s best-selling author Carolyn
Chute (The Beans of Egypt Maine). In addition to delegates from
individual secessionist groups, two dozen people with a general interest
in the possibilities of secession and forming new political entities,
are expected.
New Hampshire former state senator Burt Cohen (D) will speak about
citizens taking power back from centralized concentrated centers of
empire. Vermont Commons publisher Ian Baldwin will also address the
delegates.
As in the two previous conventions—in Burlington, Vermont, in 2006,
and Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 2007—delegations will give reports on the
activities in their areas in the previous year and trade information on
strategizing, organizing, and politicking.
Each of the first two conventions issued declarations of purpose and
policy, available on the website, MiddleburyInstitute.org.
The convention is of course open to the media.
A press conference will be held Saturday at 5 p.m.
