I keep expecting them to re-air it someday (but not so far). <BR/><BR/>I'd like to see the Tommy Douglas story again too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-58571489140486897802007-06-23T14:31:00.000-07:002007-06-23T14:31:00.000-07:00Elllie & Wendy : Thanks.

I posted this over at Galloping Beaver as well and a commenter there said the only impausible part of the film was that a terrorist threat was used as a pretense to invade Canada, when we all know that SPP is all that is required. :-(<BR/><BR/>WEB : LOL. We both know I bore everyone to tears bagging on endlessly on my little drum about this crap.<BR/>That link to NAFTA Annex Tariff 22.01 from Wendy Holm is important though. She figures the whole "bottled" vs "bulk" thing is a Tom D'Aquino smokescreen to cover the fact neither are exempt.<BR/>I would trust Holm on this - smartest woman I ever met, an in-the-trenches walk-the-talk intellectual.<BR/><BR/>Jennifer : Left you a note at your place.

You can see more about it at Gross' production company website, whizbangfilms.com My understanding is that it is even more chilling.

The people on imdb who didn't like it are those who didn't understand it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
