My two personal contacts with Libya have been at airports and both were shocking.
Never in our collective lifetime have we seen such an outpouring, so much emotional intensity, from every corner of this country. There have been occasions, historically, when we've seen respect and admiration but never so much love, never such a shocked sense of personal loss.
MONTREAL - Jack Layton leaves behind a party that is less self-righteous about holding a monopoly on social democracy, but more driven to advance its ideals.

An Open Letter to the Toronto District School Board about the Commemoration of 9/11
The weekly Muslim prayer at a Toronto public school thats said to constitute an imminent threat to Canadian secularism has been going on for 11 years, with nary a complaint.
After nearly a decade since the 9/11 tragedy, I grew frustrated awaiting the Canadian government's acknowledgement of what I believe are its ties to the terrorists who orchestrated the event.

There are things not to like about Ontario Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty. Perhaps the most worrying are his unconstitutional G20 legislation, the cruel application of that law, and his refusal to institute a public inquiry into the events surrounding the conference. Then there are the financial constraints imposed on the Children's Aid Societies without any guidelines as to where to cut back. Thus, when things go wrong, all the blame can be shifted onto the CAS's. His bail-out for corporations but not for workers' pensions is another strike against him. One could go on.
