LEJ, corporate tactics aside, this is not merely the agenda of Bush and his ilk, this crap was going on during the Clinton administation as well and before.

What really rots my socks is that, even by standards of their own game, when the WTO determines, on two occasions, that the US complaints are bull shit and Canada is not dumping or subsidising it's forest industry, we end up going through the same crap again.

The US has still not refunded previous "illegally" collected countervailing duties from the last couple of go rounds, after the international court's rulings in Canada's favour. That is criminal. No suprise that some usually polite Canadians are really ticked and sometimes "bystanders" get spattered. Ya can't have it both ways. Then again, you can and do.

Seems to me the ultimate goal of (big) capitalism is to destroy capitalism and create an oligarchy, remeniscent of the old Soviet Socialist Republic. Free enterprise?....hmmmm...what a joke.
