Canada US prisoner swap faces mixed appeal for inmates
Ottawa reports the prisoner exchange treaty will affect about 230 Americans in Canadian federal prisons and 80 Canadians in U.S. federal prisons. Some Americans, especially those jailed for drug offenses, may opt to stay for better parole chances, while killers face long Canadian sentences. Transfers require six months remaining, mutual consent, and will send 35 to 50 Americans to U.S. facilities and about 30 Canadians to Canadian jails.

Local governments could keep sales tax shares under bill
Illinois lawmakers edged toward a final version of a sales tax relief bill that would let cities and counties retain local shares of the tax revenue dedicated to business aid. The measure, sponsored by Sen. Robert Egan, could take effect Jan 1 if Gov. Thompson signs, and would phase out the tax on new and used equipment over six years. Local retention is optional via ordinance, with the state taking four cents and locals one cent. Local officials see potential but uncertain impacts on jobs and budgeting. Chicago plans to grant manufacturers its share, while Sargent notes few cities may choose to keep funds.
