Sixth Life in Canada Review: 2004-05


© David Newman

This has become a yearly tradition. Although it seems to take a lot of space in a yearly calendar when I only write 12 articles. Much has happened in the year, politically during this year what with the minority government, the reelection of Bush stateside and Canada, if not the world, seem to be in a transitional period. It will be interesting to see where we're headed.
