Program Title: Alert!
Description: ALERT this week features interviews with Petr Cizek and Maureen Webb.
Cizek is the author of "Scouring Scum and Tar from the Bottom of the
Pit", an article that appeared in the July/August issue of Canadian
Dimension magazine. Webb is the author of a new book Illusions of
Security, Global Surveillance and Democracy in the Post 9/11 World.

In his interview, Cizek talks about the way Canadian environmental
organizations have eased off their demands for a moratorium of oil
sands developments as a result of the funding they have received from
the Pew Foundation. The Pew family were the original developers of
the tar sands and continue to own Sunoco.

In her interview, Webb talks about the Maher Arar case in the light
of her work on global surveillance and human rights.
