The Harper government claims that it is keen to develop a strong policy towards Latin America. Yet it is a flawed approach, supporting US policy at a time when it is at its lowest point in decades, while ignoring both a clear leftward swing of elected Latin American governments in the last five years and the significant importance of Cuba in the region.

We're a great place if you want to stay small. But if you want to grow, if you want to expand, if you're an international company and you have a branch office in Manitoba, we're the last place where you're going to want to (grow). What they've won: Essentially, veto power on the east side. In part to avoid a protracted legal battle, the Doer government's policy on the east side mirrors Poplar Rivers': No power line but a UNESCO site instead. That's despite growing calls from nearly every one of the other 15 bands on the east side who say they'd like to talk about a power line and the economic spin-offs one might provide to their poor reserves.
