Muslim group to proceed with libel suit against Stephen Harper and spokesman over ‘terrorist’ comment

Well, hopefully this is resolved before it gets to court. All it would take is an apology from the Prime Minister.
$100,000? Sounds like chump change for Harper and his office. I guess that's to pay for the lawyer fees.
If I remember correctly, the connection this charity has to Hamas is innocuous at worst. Sadly, for any charity to do work in Palestine, the need to go through Hamas is absolute.

Private Equity is a TERRIBLE Investment... Who Keeps Giving Them Money? — How Money Works

Not too much to comment. Business in the USA and by extension Canada is bad right now. Probably for a generation. We really do need a generational plan to get us out of this mess. A ten to twenty year program, unfortunately. Placing pieces onto the board and moving them where they need to be to make things work again. By pieces, I mean people.

As different as the world was from my parents' childhoods. My elders speak of our role on this Earth as caretakers. However, we've abandoned this role in favor of materialistic pursuits. Of finite beliefs that will quickly degrade into ash when stressed, as heated glass touching cold water. All cultures historically warn us away from over-indulgence, and yet our own modern society celebrates this behavior as exemplary. This self-interest is our fatal flaw. We take what we want, and we give nothing. This cannot last. There are limits on this Earth we cannot comprehend in full. It is simply too vast. However, what little we do know should terrify us into acting more responsibly, even if only marginally. However we do not even do that. Our leaders urge us on to continue on as we have done. This cannot last. Eventuall...
