 Ronald
Reagan's Legacy- Monday
June 7, 2004
by : Mark Weisbrot
Washington :
It was a turning point in history with both Britain and American lead by reactionary
leaders who produced a world wide recession and the reversal of progress in the third
world. Ronald Reagan may have been popular in his own country but in the world he
was the enemy of ideas of freedom and democracy.

Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 No one should shy away from some do-it-yourself
experience but in general when it comes to computer technology the cost of self repair
greatly exceeds going to an expert. Remember the most expensive thing in your computer
is your personal data and files as they are, in many cases, not replaceable. If you
get into trouble, contact Shawn
at TSL in the Mall. |

 PC party on Dartmouth-Cole
Harbour ballot- Sunday
June 6, 2004
by : Tracy Parsons
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia
: The take over of the Progressive Conservative party by the Canadian Alliance has
not gone smoothly as almost half of the original Progressive Conservative party have
no stomach for the Alberta lead and separatist focused party. So some have struck
out on their own and Tracy Parsons is on the Dartmouth ballot as a PC.

June 1, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

clouds cleared away and its 23ºC what more is there to say. With a teeny weeny

June 1, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

will grow almost anywhere but there are limits as to how much traffic it can take.
At some point you have to make the decision, if its not growing, maybe its time to
replace it.

 Elections Canada
Letter Registering PC Party On the Ballot- Tuesday
June 1, 2004
by : Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls, Ontario
: From the shambles of the merger between the Canadian Alliance and the Progressive
Conservative Party of Canada there has developed some serious and deep felt feelings.
It was not a merger but a decietful take over and the resulting party does not represent
most of the supporters of either of the parties involved but is really a construct
of the leader of that party. So now another party has emerged to try to represent
the 12% of Canadian voters who are not Liberal, NDP or neoconservatives.
