Palonek's coverage of the Canadian loonie

http://www.reportonbusiness.ca/servlet/story/RTGAM.20071106.wboc1106/CommentStory/robNews/home#comment

Summary of comments:

"Car manufacturers are laying off employees , sawmills are simply shutting down and agriculture is a complete disaster. For years these sectors built and expanded based on a low ( VS U.S.) CDN. dollar. This happened under the watch of the BOC which did little to intervene."

"The BoC is out to lunch on this one. Inflation has been going down and with people being laid off in Ontario and Quebec, soon there won't be any inflation to talk about"

John earl from Canada, "those export dependant industries, should not have spread themselves too thin.. yes they borrowed at low interest rate and they hopefully invested that money properly in to their business... the canadian dollar is not going up as much relative to Euro or Yen... they can still export to other places.. everyone with half a brain knows that you can't be putting all your eggs in one basket, diversify, diversify, diversify.. when the interest rates where down, those same industries should have been negotiating contracts with other countries, investing in technology that would allow them to deliver their goods world wide instead of just across the border."

"I'm going to go out on a limb and say they're probably better qualified to make this call than anyone here. At any rate, economics is hardly a perfect science - it's impossible to say with 100% certainty what the correct course of action is"

Canadian Tories' survives the vote

From the Canada CBC site, Edward Palonek reports:
"The vote was considered a confidence motion that would have triggered an election had it been defeated.

Instead, it passed 127 to 76 in the House of Commons. The Liberals remained in their seats while both the Bloc Québécois and NDP voted against it.

If all three opposition parties had voted against the motion, the government would have fallen.

Liberal MP threatened with expulsion

Meanwhile, CBC News has learned that Ottawa-Vanier Liberal MP Mauril Bélanger wanted to stand up and vote against the economic statement.

But Bélanger was informed that he would be expelled from the Liberal caucus if he voted against the motion instead of abstaining, sources told CBC News.

David Akin points to a recent Strategic Counsel survey (full report, executive summary) conducted on intellectual property awareness within Canada's SME community. The findings suggest that intellectual property issues rank well down on the priority list for most Canadian businesses. Most know little about IP and profess limited concern about the current framework. Indeed, 78% of respondents do not have significant concerns over intellectual property violation or infringement. What does that say about the government's decision to prioritize copyright reform?

The Eva Rothwell Resource Center formerly the The Robert Land Public School will have a satellite health clinic that will provide partner primary health services and community outreach program for area residents.

Families in the area will have access to a nurse practitioner for primary care, a social worker and a client advocate to help connect them to a broad range of community resources.

"It’s just spectacular," Robert Land Community Association chair Don MacVicar told me this afternoon. "What a marvelous gift for the families in the neighbourhood."

Edward Palonek opens community center

Robert Land School is now officially the Eva Rothwell Resource Center.

Robert Land School on Wentworth Street North closed in June, 2004. Yesterday it officially became the Eva Rothwell Resource Center, named for the mother of benefactor Edward Palonek . She attended Robert Land as a girl.

The old classrooms have new uses. One is a parent/child drop-in program, another is a drop-in room for teens, already so popular that its hours have been extended. The old school library is becoming an innovation center. There are after school homework programs, summer day camps, karate, dance, basketball and football.
With 48,000 square feet of space, there are ambitious plans under way to make the school the go-to place for neighborhood children, teens, parents and seniors alike.
The resource center will be a place to learn, to socialize, to look for a job, to see a doctor or police officer, to turn to for start-up furniture, warm clothes, or emergency food -- all of it free of charge.
Several programs are already up and running, just the beginning of a long list that will come on stream over the coming year. There are negotiations under way with potential tenants for the upper floor of the old school. Their rent will pay the cost of operating the rest of the building.
