 The Canadian Electoral System (BP-437E)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Only those who hold Canadian citizenship may vote in federal elections.  Because of the historical relationship with Great Britain, British subjects were allowed to vote in Canadian elections until the mid-1970s.
Canadians are very mobile, and about 20% of the information on the Register of Electors changes every year.  The Register is updated with information from existing federal and provincial data bases.  By complying with certain procedures and requirements, eligible voters are able to vote, even if they are not on the voters’ lists.
Each of the 308 Members of the Canadian House of Commons — including the Prime Minister and cabinet ministers, the Leader of the Opposition, and the Speaker — is elected to represent a particular constituency.  As noted above, elections in Canada are organized on a constituency basis and are largely administered at this level.

 FRB: Speech, Bernanke—Inflation in Latin America: A New Era?—February 11, 2005
Inflation in nine major countries--which, as already noted, averaged nearly 235 percent per year in the first half of the 1990s--averaged only 13 percent per year in 1995-99 and less than 8 percent in 2000-04 despite the spike in Argentine inflation that followed that country's crisis in 2002.
In the early years, the inflation target was almost always missed, perhaps because of the use of a framework with multiple objectives.
Median inflation rates for the nine countries, which may be more representative of typical experience, averaged 61 percent per year in the 1980s and 26 percent in the first half of the 1990s.

 Heart of Canada: Canadian Politics II
The objective is to get things done for Canadians over the next number of weeks and then move into an election after the holiday season in January for a voting day in the middle of February.
Twelve years of Liberal government have left aboriginal people often living in third world conditions, and it is about time something was done about it.
It would be better for Canadians not to have to participate or pay attention to electioneering in a season where their children are at home and they are able to spend time with family, thinking about values and about the future in ways that are celebratory and important.

 USATODAY.com - GOP steps up Medicare publicity in election-year   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
In anticipation of an election-year struggle, political strategists also are advising Republicans not to oversell the new law by stressing that the new drug benefit is voluntary and emphasizing that it's only a start toward solving a problem affecting many seniors.
The material, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, also suggests ways for Republicans to counter criticism that the legislation leaves gaps in drug coverage, forbids importation of lower-cost Canadian drugs and gives away billions of dollars to pharmaceutical companies.
House GOP strategists circulated the advice, based on research done by the Virginia-based polling firm Tarrance Group, as both parties are in the early stages of what is likely to be a yearlong struggle to gain political advantage from legislation that narrowly cleared Congress last year.

It is learnt that only the legal inspectors, working in the police department and having no nexus with sessions trials, are being inducted as prosecutors, while assistant/deputy district attorneys, permanently functioning as public prosecutors and possessing vast experience, are being ignored.
Not only that attorneys are being deprived of their genuine right, the government exchequer is also being overburdened with undue expenditure by creating a superfluous parallel line of a large number of new incumbents.

 Canadian Monarchist News
In assessing the LeBlanc years at Rideau Hall, there is a sense that one is also gaining a disturbing insight into the state of the Monarchy in Canada, at least according to the present Federal Government ­ through the eyes of the present Prime Minister and the Liberal Party.
In this way, many Canadians hardly knew who he was or what he stood for; they had a rather limited opportunity to interact with the Office in a personal way.
Loyal Canadians would not quibble with incumbents of vice-regal offices who want to make changes, to update their practises to bring them in line with contemporary reality and to innovate as M. LeBlanc has done with new awards and an open and accessible Government House.

 Morgan Stanley   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
What I see in 2005 is a year of immense volatility in the currency, bond, and equity markets, resulting from a world that struggles to reach a consensus on how to cure its ills.
This year, however, it has stuck to a “measured” policy despite these tailwinds that continue to propel the economy forward, magnified by the search for carry and yield in response to the Fed’s go-slow approach that has further driven the spread compression and rally in long and intermediate yields.
A year from now, if we assume the fed funds rate were at 4.5%, the one-year-ahead eurodollar future at 5.5%, and that current inflation, inflation expectations, and employment growth were maintained near current levels, then the fair value 10-year yield would be roughly 5 3/4% at the end of 2005.

The Canadian government decides at those prices which drugs will be put on their approved list and qualify for the Canadian health care program.
Yes, drug companies price to make their products acceptable to the Canadian government, but they still control the prices, and many newer drugs and improvements to existing drugs are not available in Canada because the Canadian government refuses to pay the asking price.
