Canadian dollar ...

The Canadian dollar: a subject I have little expertise with, because I have so few of them.

This morning, Nov 14th, on the front page of the Globe and Mail, Canada's national newspaper, appeared an article where a Canadian born Nobel prize winner (in Economics) has looked at the tax plans proposed by the federal parties and has concluded that the Alliance plan the soundest and most likely to lead to future economic growth and prosperity.

Winning a Nobel prize in economics doesn't necessarily guarantee one's opinions on tax matters are sound, but if I had to choose between what he says and what desperate politicians and special interest mouthpieces say, I know who'd have my ear.

Cheers, PW.

For those of you who didn't catch 22 Minutes last night, they're doing an
electronic petition based on a promise in the Alliance Party platform, which
states that a referendum on any subject will take place if a petition is
signed by 3% of the voting public. That translates into about 350,000
signatures.

So 22 Minutes has posted a petition on their website demanding that a
referendum take place that makes Stockwell Day change his first name to
Doris.

Click below to add your name to this very important petition. Viva direct
democracy!
