	WOMEN'S EDUCATION DES FEMMES - VOL. 4 No.4- SUMMER- 1986- Page 42
		Walter Block and Michael walker, respectively Senior Economist and Director of the Fraser Institute, have a problem.
		Despite their efforts to persuade people to the contrary through radio and television interviews, articles in news-papers and Fraser Institute publications (e.g., Block and Walker, 1982; Block and Walker, 1985), many well-informed people persist in the belief that women experience employment and wage discrimination in the private sector.
		Block and Walker's answer: a "strong egalitarian philosophy" coupled with an "unsatisfactory economic analysis" (Block and Walker, 1985:85), as exemplified in the research conducted as part of the Report of the Commission of inquiry on Equality in Employment (Abella, 1985).

	Democratic Issue (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		In the context of an open economy, the tendency to place priority on the development of cultural enterprise, coupled with the generally diminishing role of the state, further highlights the character of this issue as a question of democracy.
		In a system thus oriented towards increasingly open markets, the stated objective (according to the economists) is to give the final word to the consumer, and any intervention by the state that seeks to influence the consumer's choice is viewed as an obstacle towards trade and to be avoided if at all possible.
		Economist Michael Walker, on the other hand, provides a different definition: ``What we refer to as culture is simply the society-wide summation of the individual choices people make'' (Walker, 1992, p.

		Named after early Neoclassical economist, John Bates Clark, it is widely considered to be the profession's most coveted award -- exceeding, perhaps, even the Nobel Memorial Prize in prestige.

		Michael Walker, who is the Chief Economist at the corporate-sponsored Fraser Institute in Vancouver, put the matter succinctly.
		Economic theory and policy - whether economists like to agree or not - is not derived from an empty space, but based on normative principles, some of which maybe intrinsic to the human nature, and others may result from cultural/ political/ economic/ etc. socialisation.
		This is because economist could have instead decided for the criterion of equality as the most important criterion of them all.

		The Fraser Institute was founded in 1974 by a group of academics and business executives who were concerned that government was getting too big, and that debate on the best way of meeting the economic and social aspirations of Canadians centred on heavy government involvement.

		Michael Walker remains at the head of the organization.

		Walker still thinks the referendum is likely to be defeated.
		Or, in the view of Walker and the Fraser Institute, Canada's Confederation may well be forced to decentralize anyway, regardless of the Quebec vote.
		It may be forced by a fiscal smash brought about by profligate spending and borrowing habits--which, ironically, date back to the Canadian leader who engineered Ottawa's failed strategy of bribing Quebec to stay in Canada: Pierre E. Trudeau (prime minister, most of the time, 1968-83).

		There are also numerous interviews with the usual suspects from the activist community (Naomi Klein, Noam Chomsky and Michael Moore for example) balanced with comments from business advocates such as economist Milton Friedman and the Canadian Fraser Institute’s Michael Walker.
		This commitment to fairness allows us to understand the rationales that drive corporations to do the things they do, even if most of the people representing big business are given only enough rope to hang themselves with.
		For example, in one of the film’s most chillingly ironic moments, Walker argues that corporations should be allowed to operate in developing countries without regulatory impediment, opening factories to employ workers and "raise up" their standard of living before pulling out and moving on to the next place.
