Just acouple of further points. Certainly the Council of Canadians is not a radical organisation if you mean by that socialist, anarchist, or revolutionary but as I hope I have shown they have down important work that is on the whole progressive. It may very well be that it is somewhat top-down. However, Maude Barlow is a voluntary national chairman. At least she isn't a Blue Cross executive! The water issue strikes me as quite significant and I think it should be an eye-opener for Americans.
I read a bit on the tao site. Very interesting. As an earlier post said I was wrong but so is the New York Times. It seems to me that some of the things that the NY times attributed to her are the sorts of things critiqued on the site that I visited. So what are here real views? I gather that they are not at all like those of adbusters.
On Gary Teeple. Yoshie gives a good short summary of some of the main themes of Teeple's book, at least the one I was thinking of, when I mentioned his name. Unfortunately Garmond Press in Canada is not a mass production press either!
Cheers, Ken Hanly
