Urban myth
Letter to the Editor:
Re: Globalization Equals Urbanization, Lawrence Solomon, May 9.
Mr. Solomon’s comments on commodity prices declining are bang on, but metal prices have historically always been priced globally. However, this does not mean that we must give up their production. Thirty years ago, Canadian technologies in mining and forestry were world class. Today they are nowhere. This has nothing to do with urbanization, but is a symptom of a Canadian malaise in R&D.

Business as usual
When council meets this morning, there will be lots of talk about how all the rot and secrecy has been swept from City Hall now that the $18-million MFP computer leasing inquiry is over.
I can already hear Mayor David Miller and his minions beating their chests about the dawn of a new era of "enlightenment," respect and openness under their watch.
