| EDIT: Adding this to the top, an excellent book to read about the developing references I mentioned and some of the related theories I did talk about is in a book called "The Elusive Quest for Growth: Economists' Adventures and Misadventures in the Tropics". It's an excellent book on Econo... |

| I dont know, Zipperfish -- while this province may have coloured my view a bit, even when I lived in Ontario it felt like the media was left leaning, and I'm fairly lefty myself in a number of ways. As one or two other folks who are left leaners have said in this thread so far, they also feel that t... |

| Writing this a bit tired, if anyone sees any glaring inconsistencies let me know! Not necessarily true is correct. I am using a simple statistic. However the population is like a pipeline and 1.8% new babies means 1.8% maturing along the pipeline. So the simple statistic if ok. No, it's really not. ... |

| If I may ask, this article says that he is eligible for pardon, as did the news on the television, but I've wondered why this makes everyone so sure that she will be pardoned, given that one of the things this bill is looking to do is to reduce the overall amount of pardons which are approved in our... |
