Jeez with all these sponsoring organizations - and many certainly are  
credible (eg WWF) and not just engaging in a political pile on (hmm, where  
to start...) - I still can't find one that seems actually willing to  
discuss the section(s) of the act that are of such concern. Mostly they  
seem to put forward remarkably similar 'top 10' lists full of 'might'  
and 'could' and 'possibly' - pretty difficult to make a reasoned conclusion  
on unfortunately.

And with all due respect to your top 10 lists - Elizabeth May? Seriously  
dude, come on! I've seen her in action and god bless her but I think even  
she would be amused to be put forward as impartial source when it comes to  
this (or probably any) government.

Lastly - regarding the imminent threat to democracy in Canada - this ain't  
my first rodeo; and omnibus bills are a fairly common process in  
Westminster-derived parliamentary democracies (and others); so I'm  
cautiously optimistic that we will somehow be able to muddle through  
unscathed.

Peace out,

JS
