Habitat. My. Over raised for this and was made possible through the generous support of the Winnipeg free press Fleet vehicles Agency province of Manitoba legals s supporters of fired Liberal candidate Lesley Hughes have declared in an open letter that the u. S. Knew of the 9/ 11 attacks in Advance. Its now been Well established that the u. S. Had Advance warning of a plan by Osama bin Laden to crash planes into the world Trade Center says an open letter supporting Hughes signed by 56 Manitoban. The letter also says that it is widely accepted As self evidently True that the u. S. Used the terrorist attacks to strengthen its hold on Oil in Iraq and Afghanistan. The letter released saturday refutes claims that Hughes has Ever written anything anti semitic and urges canadians to read what Hughes wrote about 9/ 11, before making up their minds about her. The liberals fired Hughes As their candidate in Kildonan st. Paul after a blog posting by Hughes came to Light in which she expressed opinions of a conspiracy on the 9/ 11 terrorist attacks. However her name is still on the ballot and Hughes continues to Campaign. But at least a few of the people who signed the letter say they dont agree with some of its contents. Journalist Frances Russell said saturday that she regrets having skimmed the letter too quickly. I would not agree that americans knew that the world Trade Center was the target. Everything else in the letter i agree with Russell said. I signed it. She asked me. I think Sheds been done dirt. Roz Usiskin president of the United jewish Peoples order said she agreed to have her name put on the letter after getting an e mail from a Friend. I see that accusation against Hughes was plausible Sheds the last person Yourd think was anti semitic. But Usiskin said she was a Little vague about what she signed and said she does not know what the americans knew prior to the 9/ 11 attacks. Lenore Ber scheidts name is on the letter but Berscheid the wife of it. Gov. John Harvard said repeatedly on saturday that ism not going to comment. As the wife of the lieutenant governor i dont participate in politics she said. Daniel Mcintyre City coun. Harvey Smith said by e mail saturday that he signed the letter because he believes the charges against Hughes Are not True but added he does not support her in her bid for office. The open letter was sent by Rda consulting a consulting practice run by Bob Axworthy of Winnipeg. Axworthy said he received the letter by e mail and signed it to show support for an outstanding individual who is neither a conspiracy theorist nor an anti semite. He did not write the letter he said and was not sure who the author was. Axworthy would not discuss the letters political statements. This Isnit about me or my interpretation so i wont comment on that he said. The letter concludes by telling Hughess critics that watergate and Manitoba ass vote rigging scandal were dismissed As conspiracy theories until journalists proved them to be True. With files from Lindsey Wiebe w Winnipeg Centre my Pat Martin vows he has not Given up the dream of tearing up the car tracks and moving the unsightly rail Yards from Winnipeg Gas Core to make room for Parks and housing. Martin said hers not leaving office until hers achieved the much ballyhooed proposal to relocate the car marshalling Yards. The outspoken nip politician known As much for colourful language As for progressive policies envisions those lands giving Way to Green space housing and commercial spaces. He said he can see rail lines linking to the province and Cit yes current development of an Inland port Northwest of the James Armstrong Richardson International Airport. What our Hope is that this could move very quickly. We could get started on this in 2009 realistically said Martin after his proposal stalled at the municipal mayors Trade Council in March a Mere two months after Martin pushed the idea. But the Ridings Liberal candidate Dan Hurley is not so sure. He said he has environmental and economic questions about turning rail Yards into Green space. Hurley a hons got Street credibility on environmental issues thanks to his time As chief of staff to former environment minister Stephane Dion said moving the car tracks has at least one Large hurdle. My main concern is probably the environmental remediation required in that area because of 100 years or 100 plus years of drains and oils and toxic chemicals going into the soil Hurley said. He would prefer Money go to develop existing infrastructure Boulevard. My question is Are there More practical and More quicker ways and areas we can look at to invest in affordable housing the University of Winnipeg senior executive officer might be the Liberal part yes Best shot at a seat in the Riding since grit David Walker lost it to Martin in 1997. Its stayed out of the Liberal grasp Ever since. But the Riding one of the poorest in Canada has its fair share of progressive candidates with Manitoba ass Only candidate from the first Peoples National party of Canada Lyle Morrisseau the communist party of Canadas Darrell Rankin and the Green party of Canadas Jessie Klassen. Independents de Ackerman and Kenny Dawodu a nigerian born Sargent Avenue restaurant owner was a bit Rusty at explaining her part yes policy positions at a forum last week at the Magnus Eliason recreation Centre. However her experiences and working in Canada for 16 years should Appeal to new canadians concentrated in the Riding. Spoke of policies to change immigration and refugee Protection act and reduce the time it takes newcomers and their families to immigrate. I came from Africa the same poverty and i see More of the poverty every Day in my area she said. Her Campaign flyer alleges Martin prefers to spend his time at his Homes in Ottawa and Salt Spring Island b. C., rather than working with us Here. In the Riding theress no escaping the p word poverty. Martin said while hers out door knocking hers found residents Are four times More Likely to ask about crime than issues such As affordable housing. Gabrielle. Giro Day free press.
