As well, it will shed light on a worldwide hunger issue that will have an economical and ecological impact in the very near future. There are many reasons given to the decline in Bees, but one argument that matters most is the use of Genetically...
The Oily Truth About China’s Occupation of Tibet
I am a huge sinophile. I have east asian specialties in both philosophy and history. That said, the Chinese occupation of Tibet has always stuck in my craw. I am a peacenik and granted all occupations bother me. But the Tibet one is unique, in a strange way, almost spiritual in nature. Tibet is such a unique site both in the natural and human worlds, that its military invasion and occupation...
Flowers For Revolutions Or Funerals?
Were the so-called “flower revolutions” in post-Soviet states successes or failures, and more to the point, were they actual revolutions? Were they representative of the flowering of democracy or just cynically manipulated joustings amongst power brokers? Experts have been carrying on this interesting debate for years. Unfortunately, it seems the consensus is that these were not...
On Science Vs. Religion: An African-Centered View Explodes Western Myths
There is an unfortunate misconception to the effect that religion in general -- traditional African religion in particular -- is in some fundamental sense opposed to science. This is a view that may be sustained only to the extent that one's view of religion is flawed, or one's view of science is wrong, or both. If spirit is the transcendent reality about who we really are, then it...
Ecuador nearly went to war with Colombia after Colombian forces secretly crossed the border in a series of daring raids, to blow up, capture, and or kill FARC terrorists who inhabit a porous border region between the two nations. Colombia, funded, supplied, trained, and backed up by America, used American intelligence to pinpoint targets, such as the second-in-command of FARC, who they...

Two weeks ago I wrote about the CBC's inadequate coverage of the ongoing developments in the struggle to expose the 9/11 false flag operation. While Canada's national broadcaster was my target of choice, one could easily substitute any other media giant for an examination of this phenomenon. The story bears updating because 2008 has begun with some major developments that... Read MORE>>

February 9th 2008 was "Hockey Day in Canada" - twelve hours of CBC programming about our national pastime. Playing host this year was the small town of Winkler Manitoba. We were treated to an NHL triple-header and lots of stories about ourselves. On December 13, 2007 the CBC recorded its year-end "At Issue" panel in front of a live Canadian audience. These...

I live in a city patrolled by a police force parading war propaganda. If we as citizens fail to understand how inappropriate this is, then we are in deep trouble. Vancouver police chief Jamie Graham has maintained that the yellow ribbons plastered to Vancouver police cars are not intended to convey a political statement. In his view, this is about "supporting the safe return of... Read MORE>>

In my city transit sucks. As our civic planners are about to bestow their latest round of gifts upon us, it is useful to ask ourselves why Vancouver's transit infrastructure continues to be so deplorable. In 1985 there was the gift of SkyTrain. This elevated train is not without limitations. The cars are small and the ride is relatively slow because there’s no express. I... Read MORE>>

Is Iran developing nuclear weapons capabilities? Maybe. At this time, there is no proof that this is the case: the US National Intelligence Estimate on nuclear capabilities in Iran has judged that Iran has halted its nuclear weapons program (PDF document); and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has reported that there is no evidence of diversion of nuclear material to a...
