Today the constitutional discussion threaten to tear apparent the country despite the fact that this time all the provinces and Indian people are talking, and taking an active role in the process.

Now Quebec Robert Premier Bourassa is heating up the discussions even further with his proposals for constitutional change.

The Yellowknife RCMP - like their cousins in Saskatchewan - are also stepping out of line this month.

They recently raided the offices of the Press Independent, a newspaper serving the Western Arctic, to seize photographs taken during a fight between striking miners and riot police.

One has to wonder why.

If 60 cops, many fitted in full riot gear, alongside a force of security guards can't muster a camera and a body to shoot their own pictures, something must be wrong. That they have to use legal force to get a reporter to do the job then is enraging.

The Saskatchewan Court of Appeal has ruled the RCMP won't have to reveal the name of their informant in the racist Church of Jesus Christ Aryan Nations.

The cops, it would appear, are getting off easy this time. For those wanting to get to the bottom of what happened the night Carney Nerland shot Leo LaChance through the door of his Prince Albert gun shop, the court's decision is a setback.
