| Please don't despair but keep witnessing to what is right and true. At least you'll know you did what YOU could. Sometimes nothing but faith and lots of prayer can equip us to face what is coming. So please hang in there, Deacon! |

| I had hoped that the Arar report would lead to some public scrutiny of the "trial by hearsay" methods that CSIS uses to keep the Secret Trial Five in detention. The Five were arrested over a period from June 2000 to May 2003. Three of them have been in the new high-security prison in Kings... |

Flaherty wasn't much of a "fixer" this week when it came to refusing to help Toronto get a prestigious world's fair.
Dumb de dumb.
Have these Tories decided they can get along without Ontario? Are they taking some gleeful revenge for Alberta's past grievances? |

| I have yet to hear anyone in the media ever mention a point that must be in the back of all of our minds: namely, that Canada isn't too concerned about climate change because we stand to BENEFIT from it - an open Northwest Passage, a longer growing season, more pleasant winters, more immigration ...... |

| Thanks for this heads-up, Ed. (BTW, how can you recognize a B52? And how do you know they have a corridor over your home? We have a lot of air traffic too, but I wouldn't know a Cessna from a fighter jet! Say - maybe they want to slow down air traffic with a terrorist scare, to make more room for mi... |

| Sarge, I hope you're also writing to politicians (the Opposition parties as well as Harper & MacKay). And if you know where there's an Israeli consulate, just show up! Others will come.

(And also to change the balance of power in Iran's favour, which they're accomplishing.) |
