| Good article, Ed, but I would say to your statement: "No other country in the world is nearly as addicted to binge-spending as the US consumer." Canada is close behind, and I would say, is as nearly addicted to binge-spending as the US. --- “The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to b... |

MORE power to provincial government, but EVEN more to local civic government, while instituting full open elections for all civic governance. - Make the school day = work day, ie, 8 hours long. Daycare would only be required for those who wan... |

| What conversion? Did I miss it? You don't mean him saying, 'Oh, you guys, you should drive less!' or some such drivel, during his state of the Empire speech recently? When he puts through a bill to reduce subsidization of the oil and gas industry, and transfers the funding to alternative energy init... |

Ha ha ha. After my question, security would have dragged me out in chains. I'm glad I wasn't there.

| Ten mil for getting treated as a terrorist and tortured for a year in Syria? I'd take that trade. Time to start polishing up my fake RPG-7. If enough of us get arrested on false charges and then take them to court, we just might beat this phony war on terror. --- “The war is not meant to be won, it ... |

| You can't just blame the media and big business. The people of BC are to blame, too. The media did (I'm sure facing huge backlash from their handlers) broadcast that criminal's mugshot all over the tv news, driving drunk in Hawaii. Yet we voted him back in anyway.

| Very well said, and he's absolutely right that one of the primary aims of terrorists is to unbalance and disrupt rights and freedoms and democratic process. The logical extension, of course, is that intelligence agencies drive this and are promoting a 'war on terror' for this very purpose. --- “The ... |

| And the arrest of the embassy staff is clearly aimed at goading Iran into doing something stupid across the border into Iraq.
