Common Dreams
It's been said that dreams are our roadmaps to the future. If so, where are
we headed? Common Dreams offers an eclectic mix of politics, issues and breaking
news with an emphasis on progressive perspectives that are increasingly hard
to find with our corporate-dominated media.
Council of Canadians
As a government and corporate watchdog, the Council offers a critical voice
on key national issues. Since 2004, the Council has focused on fighting deeper
economic integration with the United States. This includes building popular
opposition to the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America, an agreement
reached by Canada, the U.S. and Mexico in 2005, that is paving the way for Canada
to integrate our security measures with those of the United States, surrender
control of our energy supplies, sell off our water, and harmonize our medical
drug testing policies with lower U.S. standards.
TheCouncil of Canadians has run highly influential citizen campaigns against
cutbacks and changes to Canada's system of public pensions, the proposed mergers
of four of the country's biggest banks, and the introduction of Bovine Growth
Hormone into the nation's milk supply. The Council has also worked with groups
and individuals across the country to fight the alarming concentration of media
ownership in Canada. More recently, the Council has launched campaigns to prevent
the bulk export of Canada's fresh water and to protect Canada's public health
care system from privatization.

Janus
was the God of Beginnings, which also ensured good endings; for
this reason he is always depicted with two faces gazing in opposite
directions. And don't we all do that when we are starting something
new? We look forward with anticipation towards the future yet
at the same time we look backwards to the past which has led us
so far and at last brought us to this new beginning. Just think
of the last few weeks as we awaited the close of the old year
