  • Along with [Leon Mugesera], the suspects believed to be in Canada are former politicians Pierre Celestin Halindintwali, Evariste Bicamumpaka and Gaspard Ruhumuliza. The fifth man is Vincent Ndamage, a mason accused of being a militia leader. Halindintwali was a director of public works in Butare and, according to Rwandan prosecutors, an Interahamwe leader who organized and attended genocide planning meetings. Ruhumuliza was a minister in the government prior to the genocide and in the interim government when the killing was carried out. Prosecutors in Rwanda say Ruhumuliza helped plan the genocide and incited crowds to kill.

  • To write a story about post-secondary students receiving a rebate for remaining in the province, and to not actually talk to a single regular student, is not thorough journalism, especially when the front-page headline leads readers to believe that they have actually talked to students. To talk to people like Liberal Leader Jon Gerrard, who is not directly affected by the planned rebate, yet ignore students, affects the credibility of the journalists. Downtown is overflowing with students. With the University of Winnipeg and Red River College just blocks away from the legislature, there is no excuse for not talking to even one student. Students will talk, especially when it is pertaining to money going into their wallet. Along with several other Red River College students, I feel that t...

  • Aid workers, though, say they have a lot of hope the former child soldiers can be rehabilitated, noting many are able to recover relatively quickly -- returning to normal family life and going back to school. Since 2004, more than 30,000 children across the country have been demobilized and reintegrated with assistance from UNICEF. But it is estimated that around 3,500 children are still with armed groups in Congo. In the final months of 2008, rebels loyal to renegade general [Laurent Nkunda] seized large swaths of eastern Congo, driving out defeated army troops and militias. Nkunda, a Tutsi, initially was fighting perpetrators of Rwanda's 1994 genocide of mainly Tutsis by Hutus who escaped into eastern Congo. Before we reunite the children, we go to the parents and communities," she s...

  • [Peter Pigott] has interviewed a wide array of Canadians who've worked in Darfur, but dilutes the impact of their stories by either providing too little detail or by crowding the stories with an alphabet soup of the agencies they worked for. His telling becomes logistical, a kind of catologue, crowded by too many factoids. The World and Darfur, edited by University of Western Ontario media studies professor Amanda F. Grzyb, is even heavier reading, made up of essays comparing the 1994 genocide in Rwanda to what is now happening in Darfur. This book is not nearly as compelling as [Romeo Dallaire]'s Shake Hands With The Devil. It's not meant to be. But The World and Darfur has its moments. Most poignant is an essay by Samuel Totten, a senior researcher at the Centre for Conflict Managemen...

  • When a Jew moans at the mention of the Holocaust, it isn't just because he lost his entire extended family in Hitler's gas chambers, it's also because a sophisticated and ancient European-Jewish culture was obliterated. It is not lost on any Jew that Israel is vulnerable to the same fate. Some critics have opposed the plan by the Canadian Museum for Human Rights to build a permanent exhibit to the Holocaust, saying it gives unfair attention to one tragedy over all the others. More people died in the Ukrainian Famine than in the Holocaust, so doesn't it deserve at least equal square footage? But if body counts are used to determine priorities in the museum, then perhaps the largest spaces should be allotted to the memory of Mao Zedong's 20 million victims, or to the 26 million Soviet cit...

  • Congratulations to the aboriginal women from the Roseau River First Nation for the courage they display in their action to impeach Terry Nelson and his crew from the Roseau River leadership. His record of mismanagement over the years culminated in the reserve's recent "watergate" fiasco. The other day I happened to be watching a very moving documentary, Shake Hands with the Devil. This film depicts a very sad and tragic part of Rwanda's history, 1994-95 during the genocide, when hundreds of thousands of Hutus and Tutsis were massacred. Gen. Romeo Dallaire was in charge of the UN operations during this time, trying everything he could, along with his UN military force, to prevent this massacre. He was there to save lives. Now a senator, he was awarded the Order of Canada in 2002. Now Dr...
