	Queen v Riel
		In 1867, the Dominion Parliament presented an address praying that Her Majesty would be pleased to unite Rupert's Land and the North Western Territory with the Dominion, and to grant to the Parliament of Canada authority to legislate for their future welfare and good government.
		It is principally by the 91st section that the legislative authority of the Canadian Parliament is defined; and under this section it can" make laws for the peace, order and good government of Canada," in relation to all matters not coming within the classes of subjects assigned exclusively to the Legislatures of the Provinces.
		I take it that the plenary powers of legislation conferred upon the Parliament of Canada include the right to alter or repeal prior Acts of the Imperial Parliament upon subjects upon which the Canadian Parliament is given power to legislate, so far as the internal government of Canada is concerned.

	Go Canada!
		OTTAWA -- Thousands of Canadians will be on hand to greet George W. Bush when he visits Ottawa later this month -- and that's not necessarily a good thing for the U.S. President.
		Bush's staff are said to be worried that he will be heckled by MPs if he makes a speech in the House of Commons; both Canadian and U.S. government sources say it is unlikely he will address Parliament.
		Summit organizers are mindful that many MPs strongly oppose some of the President's policies, and are aware that a former president, the late Ronald Reagan, and former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher were heckled by backbenchers during their appearances in the Commons.

	Canada prepares for "plutonium imports"
		The Canadian parliament resonated with condemnation from opposition leaders on March 23rd in response to news that the government was preparing to import plutonium derived from American and Russian nuclear weaponry.
		The Canadian broadcaster, CTV news, obtained a copy of a 1997 study commissioned by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited and the provincial electricity monopoly, Ontario Hydro, that concluded the best way to import radioactive material was by sea.
		Burning plutonium in reactors, as the Canadian study envisioned, is described by the idea's supporters as a way of reducing the worldwide supply of the strategic material, which is the main explosive in nuclear weapons.

		On February 23rd 1942, Harry joined the lineup of other young men at No. 3 Manning Base in Edmonton, Alberta, to fill in a two-page enlistment application.
		His signature was applied in the appropraite space, and it was home again to wait for the call to service.
		Yet, in the end it was likely a sense of duty that motivated most boys to accept a role for which they were never intended - it was a chance to make a contribution with their young lives that no one else was able to make.

		AP - Canadian eyes were turned to Parliament Hill for Thursday's confidence vote the most dramatic in decades but with the defection of a Conservative member of parliament to the Liberal ranks the defeat for the minority government of Prime Minister Paul Martin has grown less certain.
