I watched an interview with Bob last night on CTV. Whatever their reasons, the Sri Lankan government handled this very poorly.

Once again, I simply applaud you for your courage and determination. Anybody who had watched your stand during the emergency debate regarding the Sri Lanka situation in our Canadian Parliament would agree that you did not care about your vote count. You were critical of both sides - GOSL and LTTE. So, I only see goodwill and good faith in your intended trip to Sri Lanka. May god bless you.

You have known very less that speaks through your words Mr.Baker...Please learn the historical perspective that made Tamils marginalized for decades...Tamils are not terrorists..they are ordinary people with ordinary expectations...The people who make innocent people to resort to terrorists tactics to achieve unachievable are in fact to accused...... Read Morefind the route cause Mr.Baker...the symptoms will give you clues...your knowledge in this whole event is very less...be educated and informed...do you know history of Tamils in Sri Lanka...are you aware about the marginalization that occurred during the past six decades or so...be informed before accusing the whole Tamil community as terrorists...

Washington Notes
I lived here fifty years ago (!) when Eisenhower was President, the Senators were in the last place in the American League and the kids in my third grade class made fun of me (among other reasons) because I wouldn't sing the national anthem or put my hand over my heart when everyone else was...

It's the credit system, stupid
The focus everywhere is on "the economy," but it is ironic that conservatives are outdoing each other by promising to spend money on "shovel ready" projects, with Stephen Harper seen getting on to a ski-doo after bringing a cheque for a new winter trail...
