Mel Hurtig To Write New Book On Missile Defence

Posted on Monday, February 02 at 15:45 by sthompson
I have to get the book ready in one month!!! So, if my replies to you are brief, I hope you will understand that for the next month I am chained to my desk working on the book (hopefully a $19.95 trade paperback). More about my speeches on the NMD in Toronto and Vancouver shortly.. One of the best articles I've read about the U.S. and the Bush administration is Paul Krugman's op-ed piece in the January 30th New York Times, "Where's the Apology". Best!!! Mel

    Hello Mel,

    Not sure if you will even read this message. But, anyways I look forward to the new book. Can I pay for the book in advance ;-)

    Also I apologise for not calling you when I said I would. I would try tomorrow, but now I don\'t want to interrupt you from your book.

    I also look forward to hearing about any conventions where you will be speaking. If I know ahead of time I will take the weekend off, and make the 8 hour drive south to attend. Please let us know enough time in advance.

    Thanks!

    I will read whatever Mel writes...as it always contains truth, sometimes I absolutely hate what he is saying because the truth hurts! The first book I read of his,\'The Betrayal of Canada\' scared the poop out of me, that was when I first became interested in politics, that was the first time I actually thought we had a chance with Mel Hurtig and the National Party. I didn\'t realize how complicated the process is, I actually believed that Canadians would listen and pay attention to what he was saying and we would all be free today.

    It didn\'t happen, as we all know, the press wouldn\'t give him the time of day, even bad press wouldn\'t have been something! I do think however, that now Canadians are paying more attention. I look forward to this book, and the facts it will give me to defend against the new world order of bomb and awe! Who the hell is going to be around to be saying awe, and wow , when they\'re through bombing all the nonconformist countries and so called rogue nations!!! Nobody says awe when they\'re crispy...nobody works, nobody in the slave force, oh what will they do, presuming as I\'m sure \'they\' do, that they will be still sitting in their ivory towers amidst the blackened earth...ahhhh
