News comes to Canada Free Press (CFP) this morning from columnist Michael Oberndorf of the passing of outstanding American patriot, Henry Lamb. One of a kind Tennessean Henry Lamb held a lifelong dedication to the American Constitution, and did more to warn average people about the destructive encroachment of the United Nations on human society than any other source. His columns on the UN’s Agenda 21 which appeared on CFP, World Net Daily and elsewhere, were classics. The results of Lamb’s long ago dire warnings on the The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), also called the Law of the Sea Convention or the Law of the Sea treaty, sadly passed through the warning stage and are now about to become ratified and signed as airtight UN documents.
A tireless defender of liberty and freedom, Lamb shrugged off the excessive hate mail of progressives, focusing on researching and writing his next column. Henry Lamb’s work was carried by print journal Toronto Free Press, the forerunner to CFP. Indeed Lamb and Alan Caruba have been CFP contributing columnists longer than anyone else. Henry Lamb is the founder of the Environmental Conservation Organization, founded in 1988, Sovereignty International Inc., in 1996, and Freedom21 Inc, in 1999. He was publisher of eco-logic Powerhouse, a widely-read, online and print magazine. He attended United Nations meetings around the world, was a frequent compelling speaker at educational conferences and workshops throughout the USA, and was a regular guest on dozens of talk radio programs. He also gave his time to serve on various boards and committees of other organizations that promote environmental stewardship, private property rights, and Constitutional values.

Henry Lamb provided testimony for the U.S. Congress, as well as State Legislatures, and was a consultant on U.N. affairs to FOX News. During his lengthy illness, Lamb wrote his columns from his hospital bed, never missing a deadline. Close friends describe him as a “true gentleman of the South”, “a gentleman in every way.”

“You must never tire. You must keep every ounce of energy you have in fighting the good fight.”

Included among the things I will remember most about Lamb, are his words in a telephone conversation when a friend arranged a conference call. It was the first time I got to talk to him directly. As we were speaking, I asked him did he ever (like us) get tired in tracking the progressives of the left. He replied: “You must never tire. You must keep every ounce of energy you have in fighting the good fight.” Condolences are coming in over the Net for Henry’s widow, Irene, who was undoubtedly his most enthusiastic fan. Irene can take great pride in knowing that her husband is not one who passed without leaving a legacy. Because of his indefatigable work, Henry Lamb will always be here.
