Toronto Star

Remarkably, even the Toronto Star is calling for the repeal of the infamous "Section 13." Let's see if our politicians will dare to make this an election issue. "Where do you stand on 'Section 13'?" should be a question asked at every all candidates meeting if there is an election this fall!

Freedom of Speech

This could be a great victory for freedom of speech in this country.

The New Economy

During the colonial period, the World's Empires, led by Britain and Spain, used their far flung empires as sources for raw materials. Places like India and China were merely producers of goods for further processing in the homelands. Think only of Gandhi's protest about cotton grown in India, shipped to England, where it was made into cloth, only to be shipped back to India.

This CBC News item strikes me as ironic. As does this one. Canada is no longer sending raw material to England but to other former colonies!
