Niagara Falls, Ontario: The use of "depleted uranium" munitions is a serious world problem but it has been ignored and denied by the Canadian Government. Yesterday they agreed to look into the problem with Canadian veterans.
by: Timothy W. Shire Tisdale: Since Stephen Harper longs to be an American or at least be loved by Americans he has pursued the destruction of the Canadian Wheat Board. Here are some of the continuing arguments both for abolition and preservation.
by: Stu Innes Regina: Not everyone want to see the Wheat Board go away. Stu Innes wants to market his product when and where he likes.
by: Herb Schulz
Winnipeg: We maybe need to consider who is gaining rather then who is losing on the destruction of the CWB.
by: Brian Marlatt
