Program Title: ALERT!
Description: Political activist Sid Shniad gives his take on the free-speech/Islamophobia
controversy set off when four young law students, on behalf of the Canadian
Islamic Congress, submitted a complaint to the Canadian Human Rights
Commission that Maclean's magazine refused to allow them an opportunity to
rebut the misinformation contained in articles published in the magazine.

Parkland Director Gord Laxer explains why it is important that Canada
establish strategic petroleum reserves. Atlantic Canada and Ontario are
highly dependent on precarious Middle East oil imports, even though Canada
is a large exporter to the US.

US film maker, writer and broadcaster Saul Landau gives an hilarious
commentary on the US primaries in the wake of Super Tuesday.

Host(s): Lesley Hughes & Andre Clement
Featured Speakers/Guests: Sid Shniad, Gord Laxer and Saul Landau.
