My post of March 5, reflecting on the death of Brian Mulroney and views of free trade grew into a discussion, with comments and updates. I've just added another update, drawing attention to writer and publisher Ken Whyte's essay on the "Terminal Decline" of independent Canadian cultural expression, which one of his sources describes as taking place "in the fifth decade of neo-liberalism." The link in the first line here will take to the full discussion.
And Rick Salutin has a Mulroney/free trade consideration in the Toronto Star which suggests again that the people I have been quoting are not isolated voices.
