There is only one way to defeat Harper and his capitalist agenda, and that's 
for the other three parties to form a coalition.  Although there are serious 
differences between them, they need to find common ground.
That's MY two cents.

Well-said, Paul.  In my book, environmental interests and long-term economic
ones coincide.  The conflicts are with shorter-term economic interests.

We owe a lot of our good fortune to the foresight and sacrifices of people
who came before us.  Right now, we are still in a good position to make
sacrifices for the well-being of others, both in future generations and in
less-fortunate parts of the world.

Will we be able to say that a generation from now?

James and Darrell,

The terrible truth is that political leaders continue to make decisions
based on the idea that business interests trump environmental interests. The
Liberals destroyed Newfoundland Cod and the Conservatives have set their
sights even higher. I'm afraid it will be some time before appropriate
concern for the environment will replace defunct political ideas.

I guess we get what we deserve.

Paul Ruggles.
