Taking liberties: When elite representatives define 'national security'Matthew Behrens
November 6, 2011
Just after Thanksgiving, Montreal's Westin Hotel played host to a gathering of high-powered Federal Court judges, NGO heads, lawyers, academics, and members of Canada's torture-complicit spy service, CSIS. Coming together under the predictably dry title "Terrorism, Law and Democracy: 10 years after 9/11," the conference sought to determine "whether Canadian law has successfully preserved fundamental rights and values of substantive and procedural justice while at the same time contributing to anti-terrorism."
The Arab Spring comes to the US and CanadaProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
November 6, 2011
I fully understand the 99% movements in the US and Canada and even predict their success. I was/still am a participant in the Egyptian Revolution in its three phases: (1) a revolution-in-the making (2003-2011), (2) from-protesting-to-a-revolution at Tahrir Square (January 25 - April 4, 2011) and (3) building a New Egypt (at present).

October 30, 2011
Occupy Ottawa began on October 15, with around 500 participants. The Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) took part, along with CUPE (Canadian Union of Public Employees) and NUPGE (National Union of Public and General Employees).
The capitalist mantra of the one per centScott Stockdale
October 30, 2011
While Occupy movements continue to escalate around the world, based on the dominant theme that "We're the 99 per cent and you're the one per cent," - the dominant message is the anger that a small proportion of powerful people hold the majority of society's wealth -- and they seem to be getting richer. The CBC Radio program The Current recently interviewed some of the one per cent people.
Candidate's scheme is admirable but unworkable Chantal Hebert
October 30, 2011

People's Power: Occupy Wall Street movementThe Canadian Charger
October 23, 2011
In the United States - the world's lone superpower and a beacon of hope for many the world over - 14 million people are officially unemployed and two million of those have given up looking for a job. And that's the tip of the iceberg: half a million people are homeless; nearly 50 million people are without health insurance; and 46 million Americans live below the poverty rate, yet banks and large corporations received billion dollar bailouts from taxpayers' hard-earned money and bank executives never stopped receiving million dollar bonuses, on top of their seven figure incomes.
