Good to see that there is someone else who actually liked Mulroney and his

accomplishments.

Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery.

Apparently, the house that Kyoto built is based on

a pile of manure. Let’s hope it sinks quietly into the abyss before it gets build too high.

More proof the deal with the devil should have been revoked.

The apology calls into question whether or not Homolka lived up to her end of the plea deal that stipulated she could be prosecuted if caught lying, “obstructing justice, public mischief, fabricating evidence, perjury, inconsistent statements and/or false affidavits.”

Homolka did not give one hint of the Jane Doe drug rapes until October 1993, when she wrote to her lawyer that she had a “dream” of doing things with Jane Doe and asked him to make sure nothing undid her deal.

I still don’t know why they don’t think they can undo it.

Protest the Deal with the Devil!

Remember when police chiefs used to be tough?  Not any more.

Kingston Police crunched the numbers and found that officers there are three times as likely to stop blacks as whites. Chief William Closs became tearful and apologetic as he presented the findings, the first of their kind in Canada.

Sometimes the truth hurts.  Deal with it.

Just finished listening to one of the best songs of all time, The Great Gig in the Sky, by one of the greatest bands of all times, Pink Floyd.

I got curious as to who the female vocalist was – because the performance sends chills down my spine every time.

Once more, the www comes to the rescue…its powers of research are phenomenal.

Amazingly, it’s only been about a month, but the vocalist, Clare Torry, was finally fairly compensated.

This week, the High Court judged on the side of Ms Torry, and have awarded her a half-share on copyright ownership of the song. The amount of the out-of-court settlement has not been disclosed, prompting much speculation as to the amount.

I meant to mention the new Terry Fox coin back when it came out.  Of course, they played the very sad footage of Terry ending his run when they reported on the new coin..

Canadians everywhere are stunned and heartbroken: Terry Fox’s cancer has returned and his Marathon of Hope must end near Thunder Bay, Ont. Terry has run 5,373 kilometres after 143 days on the road.

On the verge of tears, Terry Fox lies on a stretcher and tells reporters he has cancer in his lungs and must go home for more treatment.

It also got me thinking that Canada doesn’t have many heros anymore, and Terry’s heroics, as simple as they were, seem to have stood the test of time.

Yet another study telling us common sense wins again: most foods, including salt, make no difference to your health when taken in moderation.

It’s a fact that salt saves many a meal.

Single mothers by choice take note: you may need the father around one more time when your bundle of joy hits puberty.

Zimbabwe sinks closer into the abyss, as noted here.

Michael Coren doesn’t like the unprincipled Belinda.

The mother in this story sounds almost as guilty as the boyfriend.  It seems appropriate that she lost custody of her kids.

Jay asks what exactly is the downside to dumping Quebec?  Really, there isn’t one, as long as they agree to giving up most of the province. 

The real solution is with Conservatives – greater decentralization will appease all the other provinces too.

Chuck Cadman sold out and voted Liberal – and Levant is livid.

Something tells me it was a little payback to the Conservatives for not nominating him.

Fred says that he’s tired of supporting the poor industry and their collective bad choices.

One reads much about the poor in America, their piteous lives, their blighted hopes, and the unrelieved downtreading of them by various social ogres such as oppressive corporations who sell them greasy hamburgers.

A well done website, complete with Boo-linda’s last speech.

After difficult reflection, ( my head really hurts now ) I reached a conclusion. I cannot exaggerate how hard this was for me ( almost as hard as first year University ). The political crisis affecting Canada is too risky and dangerous for blind partisanship. I watch and listen and feel that the interests of individuals or parties are often placed above the national interests ( Don’t worry I didn’t write that, in fact I don’t even know what that means ). The country must come first.
