 Budget 2003: Chrétien
is hopefully the last of the big time spenders- Tuesday, February 25, 2003
by: Walter Robinson
Last week there was considerable shouting about the 2003 budget now its time to think
it over and look carefully at what the government plans to do with the taxes for
the next five years. Walter Robinson is fairly critical of a government which in
the past has paid little attention to what it does with its money. This story has
links to the complete budget.

 Oh, what a friend we have
in Dion- Monday, February 24, 2003
by: Ron Thornton
Last week the federal minister of intergovernmental affairs and the premier of Alberta
exchanged letters and barbs as Alberta separatism is now being identified by the
federal government that rarely looks West of Hull River. Ron Thornton takes a serious
tongue in cheek look at the issue and for those of us who are not Albertans this
is a chilling discussion.

by: Jeff Smith
From his perspective on the coast Jeff Smith tells us about the take over by Paul
Martin's Steamship company of an Australia bulk cargo company that then fired the
ship's crew and hire Ukrainian crewmen. Makes our country look bad and seems down
right mean.

 Oil is becoming
the only US's reason to wage war against Iraq- Thursday, February 20, 2003
The evidence is mounting that United States had boxed themselves into an energy corner
some time ago and their course of action may not be a matter of choice but rather
a necessity. This article has some outstanding references and it is worth your while
to look these over.
