	Elizabeth Nickson « Ranting and Roaring (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		I'm running a love / hate ratio for Elizabeth Nickson articles at about 2 to 1.
		This one I love, where she takes on schoolchildren using parroted outrage as a substitute for critical thinking; humorlessness; and how only capitalism can save the third-world.

	babble: Elizabeth Nickson: homicidal maniac
		Nickson took the cake today with her rant entitled "Pacifism is disguised timidity" in which she dismissis those who oppossed the Vietnam War as "ill-informed," "whining" "drug-addled children," confesses that she "flat-out worships Condoleeza Rice," "loves" George W on the basis that he "gets better every month.

	PEACE PARTY -- Stereotype of the Month contest
		In her second paragraph Nickson claims Native people are "forced by the irresponsible among them to stay in catastrophic isolation." Presumably she's referring to the century-old system of Indian reservations set up and acknowledged as sovereign nations.
		Nickson is the only one imputing infantilism to Natives when she implies they can't think for themselves.
		Nickson further falsifies the record by claiming Native people are doing everything to "hold back the progress of scientific investigation." That's hysterical considering I found her column in eScribe's Native News archive, which routinely posts diatribes like hers along with claims that Natives are descended from Polynesians or the Jomon of Japan.

	Environmentalists as Scapegoats for the Economy
		Nickson refers to these people as “neo-Stalinists.” The article is replete with name-calling spuriously posing as argument, unenlightenment, and a hint of paternalism in claiming environmentalists duped First Nations.
		Nickson’s assertions become rather stark when she rails against boycotts.
		Nickson asserts: “The international e-groups in the '90s were a vocal, organized and largely non-resident minority that forced their preferences upon the majority.

	Amazon.ca: The Monkey Puzzle: Books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Elizabeth Nickson makes it clear that her novel, The Monkey-Puzzle Tree, is based on a national scandal: the illegal use by the psychiatrist Ewen Cameron in the 1950s of private patients at the Allen Institute in Montreal in brainwashing experiments for the CIA.
		Nickson handles a plot rife with suspicious accidents, withheld legacies, and anonymous CIA old boys protecting their own, and makes it engrossing and suspenseful.
		One of Nickson's successes is her portrait of the real-life 75-year-old civil rights litigator Joe Rauh, who is suing the CIA on behalf of Cameron's patients.

	babble: Elizabeth Nickson dropped from Post for plagiarism
		A columnist with the National Post has lost her assignment with the newspaper after it learned that a column she wrote in 2002 contained five sentences that should have been attributed to a 2001 article published in a U.S. magazine.
		A four-paragraph editor's note in yesterday's National Post said the paper was discontinuing B.C. freelance writer Elizabeth Nickson's weekly column because the sentences, while "slightly revised" in her May 31, 2002, piece, weren't acknowledged as originally written by Jonah Goldberg for the Aug. 7, 2001, edition of the politically conservative National Review Online.
		For those who've never read Nickson -- and I haven't bothered for the last two or three years -- she is an Amiel wannabe.

	[No title] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		While I support Elizabeth Nickson's opposition to Kyoto, I do so because it is based on highly questionable science, not because of some sinister UN threat of International Socialism over-running the planet ("Russia Strikes a Blow for Freedom", Oct 11).
		Nickson is right on one count though -- having been intimately involved in the process, I know Kyoto to indeed be a money spinner for assorted research lobbies and bureaucracies who should be solving existing problems, not "virtual" ones.
		Kyoto is a product of frustrated bureaucracies and environmentalism gone mad, not to mention the wish by some governments to "force" technology towards (eventually) finding substitutes for fossil fuels, not a bad idea, but nothing to do with climate change.

		When I read it, and I Iive in the same part of downtown as Rebecca, I was struck by how differently we move about the same streets on which we occasionally meet.
		Nickson said, the fact of stalkers speaks to a loss of civility, a disconnect she said, which "unaddressed makes our streets unsafe and half our population live in a simmering semi-conscious fear of the other.
		Nickson, perhaps my swimmer's shoulders, combined with a tragic lack of waist and a head the size of a melon, have combined to save me the excesses of poor male behaviour all these years.

	Regret the Error: Post columnist fired over plagiarism concerns (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)

		Nickson indicated that her failure to attribute the passage was inadvertent, the Post has decided to discontinue her weekly freelance column.”
		Yes, this was under a different publisher and editor, but the editor’s note seems to take great pains to dismiss Nickson as a “freelancer,” rather than a long time member of the paper.

	joannejacobs.com: Comment on An island for children in shark-infested waters (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Most egregiously, five or so years ago, Nickson defended Peggy Claude-Pierre, the director of a controversial anorexia clinic in Victoria, BC that was later forcibly shut down after an inquiry revealed that its employees had no useful training, and that moreover, they were putting the clinic's patients' lives at risk.
		But despite overwhelming evidence that Claude-Pierre was a crank, Nickson somehow concluded that all of the opposition to her was based on a left-wing conspiracy against privatized health care.
		This article isn't quite as bad, but it's another example of Nickson skipping over arguments in a rush to defend her conclusion.

	B.C. Treaty Referendum: The Meaninglessness is the Meaning
		Here in British Columbia, according to Nickson, "the rest of us, which is to say the 3.29 million who are not the 93,000 natives, or the weak-minded and petty larcenists who feed on the aggrievement business, are feeling in a state of major GRRRR.
		The strength of Nickson's convictions is impressive, given that her research on aboriginal title in Canada seems to have been confined to Theodore Roosevelt's The Winning of the West (1889- 1896).
		Nickson helpfully deletes the phrase "squalid savages" from Roosevelt's text, lest any reader doubt the great man's standing as an "Indian sympathizer" whose views mark the limits of ecumenical benevolence.

	Chicago Reader: Hot Type
		September 11 had summoned these men, said Nickson, and in her eyes they were standing tall.
		"We are experiencing some of the best boy-watching in my lifetime," wrote Nickson, who allowed that she can't bear to turn off her television.
		Who knows which impressed the Sun-Times more: Nickson's vision of real men, or her only slightly less explicit vision of real women.

	Archived Weblog Entry - 04/28/2003: "What Every Conservative Needs Now Is A Gay Best Friend"
		And must Nickson really air all those intimate details from her life in order to prove just what an incredibly nice and generous person Elizabeth Nickson really, really is? It's kind of like listening to someone crow about how much money she gives to charity each year.
		Personally, if I were Nickson's former East Indian lover or her "best new friend," the Cowichan tribe activist, I'd be a touch annoyed at the fact that my name was being used in a national newspaper for the sole purpose of promoting the greater glory of Elizabeth Nickson.
		But Nickson's kind of smug, patronizing condescension with its refrain of "aren't we all victims of hatred here?" is the type of attitude which gives moral pomposity a bad name.

	Useful Fools: Fun In Canada
		Elizabeth Nickson has written a fine article in Canada's National Post.
		Given that Canada doesn't have press freedom protections, and Mounties have recently been used to harass journalists who've written things the government didn't want Canadians to read about, I hope Miss Nickson has picked out some nice real estate south of the 49th parallel.
		Journalists who tell us things the government doesn't want us to hear, and that sometimes we don't want to hear, are front-line soldiers in the war for freedom.

	Tart Cider \| Blog Archive \| Saturday, July 19, 2003
		So I picked up a copy of the National Post the other day and took it to my local Quizno's, where I ordered a mesquite chicken sandwich and a medium beverage (I chose Coke), all of which was much more expensive than it should have been and didn't really taste that good either.
		I was reading Elizabeth Nickson's column, entitled "It's time the left sopped sheltering evil" (she's one of these people who thinks all humans must be hardwired left or hardwired right, as if they were Sox or Cubs fans).
		Nickson sees Coulter as a little rough around the edges, but nevertheless an effectively "blunt instrument to change things." She describes her as "goddess-y." She ends the column, which was largely about shoddy journalism, with a "note to Crown Forum [publishers]: For pity's sake, get Coulter an editor."
