Friends,

I am pleased to announce that the StillWaters Group now has
available files (in Rich Text Format accessible to most late
model word processors)  on a wide variety of topics a sampling of
which are itemized below.

These files are the result of culling from each day's House of
Commons Debates and the Debates of the Senate the exchanges,
whether brief statements, questions from question period or
longer debates and compiling them in files by topic.  

Debates on specific bills are compiled in their own files which
bring together the debate which may have ranged over many days on
each reading in each House.

The topic or issue files are, necessarily, never complete.  The
present compilation runs from September 1998.  I have given
priority to the most recent debates and work toward earlier ones
when Parliament is not in session.

The ones I am offering here are available as a beta test project
and a community service.  The same file may be listed later with
additional material added.   At a later time I will offer
suggestions on how to move through an updated file.

The titles listed below are the ones which struck me as likely to
be among the more interesting.  There are files on as many more
topics.  (Too much good news at once would not work well.)

Files now available include the following topics:

Aboriginal Employment Strategies
Aboriginal Housing
First Nations Land Management Act
Mantioba Claims Settlement Act

The Nis'ga Treaty (a compendium of short items)
Cross Lake First Nation
Caldwell First Nation

Elimination of Racism Day

Youth Crime Act
Young Offenders Act -- demands for reform

Atlantic Fisheries policy
Pacific Fisheries policy
Endangered Species
Fresh Water Export
Nuclear Waste
Plutonium
Nuclear Weapons

Student Debt
Poverty Issues
Health Issues
Employment (and Employment Insurance) Issues

Judicial Activism and Parliamentary Supremacy
Nunavut Act and Constitution Act Amendment (Judges)

Kosov & NATO

Please feel free to pass this note along to friends and
colleagues in the medium of your choice.  

Enjoy,


Michael Posluns.

P.S.  I have foregone my usual delight in creating clever titles
in favour of following either the ones used in the Debates or a
key term denoting subject matter.
