.... not fit to their standards or liking. Letter to the Editor, Re: How would Quebec's separation affect us? Watching the crumbling situation in Quebec, (almost crumbling literally, due to Olympic Stadium, the billion dollar fizzle) it is interesting to think what would happen if they did separate? Would Canadians be in too bad a mood to negotiate with Quebec if they separated? Question is, would they negotiate at all? If Quebec did separate, the border ramifications would be just astronomical, trade routes would be chopped off, and a whole number of .....

.... may occur when incurably ill persons ask their physician, friend or relative, to put them to death. The patients or their relatives may ask a doctor to withhold treatment and let them die. Many critics of the medical profession contend that too often doctors play god on operating tables and in recovery rooms. They argue that no doctor should be allowed to decide who lives and who dies. The issue of euthanasia is having a tremendous impact on medicine in the United States today. It was only in the nineteenth century tha .....

.... misunderstood. They are the ones who want less crime, and a hardly demeaning lifestyle for criminals. What is the point of having a life sentence? We have people who have killed in cold blood, sitting in jail to rot. This makes me think. Why should a criminal live better than I am? We give the criminals of today too much credit and not enough hard time. I would give them enough food to live on, a cot, toilet, and sink. if more people could read the college essay I read before writing this they would understand. The writer says in his paper that even tho .....

.... coca), a tropical shrub commonly found wild in Peru and Bolivia and cultivated in many other countries. For centuries South American Indians have chewed the coca leaves for pleasure and to help them withstand strenuous working conditions, hunger, and thirst. The cocaine in the leaves produces local anesthesia of the mouth and stomach. Cocaine is a dangerous, habit-forming drug. It is classified as an alkaloid compound. (Other well-known alkaloids are morphine, strychnine, and nicotine.) Cocaine stimulates the cortex of the brain, producing intense euphoria and the desire to repeat the experience .....

.... Barbie was an early advocator of the "beauty myth". A doll who, if she were real, would be too thin to fit all of her internal organs and is too busty to stand under her own power. Barbie living in her pink palace and riding her pink corvette with her molded man Ken. Barbie had taught me that every member of society was living this very same life. I have to question if the weight of responsibility for this beauty myth falls only on Barbie's tiny plastic shoulders? But of course not! To be fair, Barbie was not the only culprit, I can remember getting dolls whose m .....

.... for private use is $100 billion a year. The federal government spends at least $10 billion a year on drug enforcement programs and spends many billions more on drug-related crimes and punishment. The estimated cost to the United States for the "War on Drugs" is $200 billion a year or an outstanding $770 per person per year, and that figure does not include the money spent by state and local government in this "war" (Evans and Berent, eds. xvii). The second cost of this "war" is something economists call opportunity costs. Here, we have two limited resources: .....

.... The 46 leaves in the two laurel branches represent the 46 states of the Union in 1908, when the FBI was founded. The FBI's motto, "Fidelity, Bravery, Integrity," appears on the seal as a reminder of the qualities and motivating factors of the FBI agents. The positioning of the words "Department of Justice" and "Federal Bureau of Investigation" are also important, due to the fact that the FBI falls under the jurisdiction of the Justice Department. Finally, the jagged edges of the seal show the ruggedness of the Bureau and its ability to withstand the test of .....

.... children. In many respects, the issue of child labour on a national scale, at least from a Canadian perspective, is one that is quite limited. Much of this has to do with the fact that a significant amount of powerful legislation and enforcement of this legislation is available. For example, the Ontario Employment Standards Act states that individuals under the age of 18 must be paid a minimum of $6.40 per hour1. Furthermore, through the Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act, regulations have been created which allow for a minimum age of 16 for logging ac .....
