Anthony Fenton in the first half.
And; over the weekend, people across British Columbia turned out in force to voice their opposition to Gordon Campbell's surprise HST tax. I went down to the demonstration at Victoria's Legislature to get my fair share of the views. B.C.'s burgeoning tea party in the second half.
And; Victoria Street Newz publisher and CFUV broadcaster Janine Bandcroft will join us at the bottom of the hour to keep an eye on the goings on going on on Victoria's streets. But first, Anthony Fenton and Canada's outsourced war for Iraq's oil riches.

Canada is indeed a mythical land. It is the country that is, but never was: Never
was in the sense that it neither evolved, nor was formed in the
crucible of revolution. It "is" simply by the virtue of its being.
"Canadians," the people comprised of all but the descendants of
those preexisting the manifestation of Canada, are largely ignorant of
the colonial past of the entity they are subject to, and for the most
part have little idea of what the nation that operates courtesy of the
taxes they pay to it does with its time and their money.
A perfect case in point is the wide-spread belief Canada rebuffed
war-monger George Bush's insistence it join America's military
adventure in Iraq. Ask Canadians if they think "we" joined that
coalition and they'll tell you, "No." But, my first guest today will
tell you, "Think again!"
