In the U.S., anti-immigrant populism is on the rise. Valley Park, Mo., a St. Louis suburb, has made it illegal for employers to hire, or landlords to rent to, illegal immigrants. Louis J. Barletta, mayor of Hazelton, Pa., has vowed to "get rid of the illegal people. It's this simple: They must leave." Hazelton landlords who rent to undocumented immigrants face fines of $1,000 daily; employers who hire them will have their business licences revoked for five years. Members of the U.S. House of Representatives have called for making illegal residents a felony. The debate is hardly one-sided. Jim Gilchrist, founder of the Minutemen Civil Defense Corps -- a group of civilians who patrol the U.S. border themselves -- found himself mobbed by multi-racial student protesters earlier this month w...

That's why you'll see so many goofy smiles on the faces of local produce fans this morning at the St. Norbert Farmer's Market, which opens for business for the first time this year at 8 a.m. As gas prices keep rising and more people show or at least feign interest in the environment, it's not unusual for ordinary consumers to pay more attention to "food miles." I've said this before, but economists believe North Americans burn as much fossil fuel on food production and transport as we do on passenger vehicles. The market will be packed this morning. I can't guarantee you'll find any fiddleheads, but I'm pretty confident you'll find something tastier than whatever it is you've been reluctantly picking from the sorry supermarket stands all winter.
