A fact from McLane–Ocampo Treaty appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 24 March 2006. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the 1859 McLane-Ocampo Treaty would have given the United States extensive free trade and transit rights across Mexico and the right of military intervention, in exchange for a $4 million loan to the Benito Juarez government then fighting a civil war, but was never ratified by Congress?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2006/March.

Untitled[edit]

None of the first 3 external links lead to active pages, link no 4 leads to an article on NAFTA that very briefly mentions the McLane-Ocampo Treaty with no specifics. Needs better sources, as it currently seems like just an unfounded conspiracy theory.201.171.89.240 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 09:36, 12 January 2012 (UTC).[reply]

What are the sources of these article? Lateley I've been researching this and it is most likely to be a myth created by the Mexican conservative catholic rightwing which don't like the figure of Benito Juarez. It is true that he was exiled to the USA after the conservative party handed in the country to the foreign emperor, but I seriously doubt this treaty was ever formulated. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Huguinvzqz (talk • contribs).

There are four sources linked within the article, and there are numerous books that refer to it. The treaty was "formulated" (whatever that means) and signed by the named parties, but it was not ratified by the US Senate, so it never came into force. --Dhartung | Talk 20:48, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
