Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, who arrived at Winnipeg's Via Rail station on Tuesday as part of her national whistle-stop train tour, surely understands this equation. May has been trudging around the country for more than two years, looking for that breakthrough that will put the Greens on the political map. Judging by the event in Winnipeg, she is making progress. The strategy for the Green party in this election is to position itself to collect liberated left and centre voters who are ambivalent about the Liberals and NDP. Poll results show that much to the benefit of the Greens, those voters they are targeting are in play. In polls released over a three-day period last week, the Greens polled between six per cent support and 13 per cent support. The Liberals saw numbers vary by e...

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. This paper examines the Harper government's approach to Cuba. Following some general comments on the evolution of Canadian policy towards revolutionary Cuba, it examines some of the errors in the Harper approach, suggests an explanation for the approach employed, and makes suggestions about policies that Ottawa should consider to improve relations. In sports terms, Cuba "punches above its weight"-a fact which is known widely in Latin Ame...
