Let's Talk Taxes Part II on joining taxpaying sector
Canada faces a harsh verdict from financial markets as debt downgrades and a sinking dollar prompt rapid government reform.

Arsenic levels in Virden water under new provincial standard
Manitoba officials discussed arsenic in Virden water with Mayor Darcy Cockbill and health officers. Old source averaged 0.042 mgl, new source 0.067 mgl at startup, now stabilizing near the old source. New federal limit for arsenic is 0.025 mgl, so neither source complies. Interim options will be considered before treatment. Also noted is Paul Sydor of Dauphin closing his long running shoemaker shop after 61 years.
