`Monica Card' a Bad Political Play

As Barack Obama struggles to explain his decades-long ties to a controversial black pastor, there's new debate about whether it's still taboo to talk about the skeletons in Bill Clinton's closet, or to inquire about [Hillary Clinton]'s decision to stand by her man during the darkest period of the couple's marriage. "Nothing good is going to come out of it. The [Monica Lewinsky] scandal helped Hillary Clinton. It did not hurt Hillary Clinton," said [Larry Sabato]. "That's why her highest appr...

Efforts Pay Off On Afghanistan

Plotting a more unified way forward in Afghanistan is one of the top priorities for NATO's 26 leaders meeting here in the Romanian capital. The alliance is attempting to counter long-standing criticism that its political and military strategy for Afghanistan has been fragmented, plagued by public disagreements, and has lacked co-ordination with other international actors in Afghanistan, particularly the United Nations. "In essence, the shape of the document, how it looks, the priorities, of c...

Feds Plan to Get Klunkers Off the Street

Environment Canada's annual planning report, released this week, earmarks $90 million over the next three years for a so-called vehicle "scrappage" program. The department has mulled the prospect of starting a national program since last year's budget set aside federal money for two years' worth of scrapping initiatives.

Does Pm Hold Radical Views?

The Liberals reached into Stephen Harper's past Tuesday and pulled out a sentence from a 20-year-old policy handbook to suggest the prime minister holds radical views about immigration.

Ex-Oil Insider Touts Electric Car

"Sometime during the year 2008, humanity will probably pass the point at which it collectively consumes 1,000 barrels of crude oil every second of every day. More than half of it -- and the share continues to rise -- is dedicated to the movement of goods, services and people," said the analysis by physical chemist Dr. Gary Kendall, titled Plugged in: The End of the Oil Age. "We are, without a doubt, entering the twilight of the Oil Age." So, in 2006, when he heard coal-to-liquids being touted...

Tories Set to Ignore Vote On Lowering Maple Leaf

The Tories said they will send an expert panel's report on the protocol to the Commons heritage committee. They'll ask MPs to hold hearings and come up with a wide-ranging policy on when the flag should be lowered. "We think that we should have a general policy that makes sense, that values the very powerful symbol of the Peace Tower and the national flag, and we'd like that to be done in a non-partisan and non-political way." Winnipeg Liberal MP Anita Neville doesn't like the idea of limitin...

Liberals Eye Ousting Hanger

"Mr. Hanger, perhaps, should chair a Grade 8 student council," Liberal justice critic Dominic LeBlanc said, branding the MP's tactic a juvenile stunt. "That issue shouldn't come before any kind of standing parliamentary committee," [Hanger] said. "There are investigative agencies that look after that kind of stuff. We neither have the expertise on that committee, nor even the resources."
