The cost of doing business shouldn't come at the cost of human lives. Corporate interests are overtaking humanitari- anism around the world. No where is this move apparent than at the APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation) conference in Vancouver. Canada has^ and wants to further, econonnic ties with APEC members whose violations of human rights keep them perpetually on Amnesty International's hit list. The words 'Tiananmen Square' conjuror visions of tanks, machine guns and blood, after the Chinese military stormed a stu- dent democracy protest in 1989. Current Chinese President Jiang Zenun, in several interviews since, has defended the Tianarunen Square massacre. Yet Canada wants to increase trade with China. China is not the only country within APEC with atrocious human rights violahons. Indonesia and the Philippines both have abominable records with respect to human rights. Both countries are APEC members. When the human rights topic was presented to U.S. President Bill Clinton during a press conference, he asked, "How do you make sure when you expand trade, you're actually elevating the human condition of your trading partners?" Meanwhile, Prime Minister Chretien does not seem overly con- cerned about Canada's economic ties with these countries. Canada's official position at this conference is that APEC is a trade forum only, and human rights discussions should be left to bilater- al meetings on the side. But why would Zemin, or anyone else, even bother discussing human rights when they already have the reward of economic union with Canada and the United States? They wouldn't. These countries are using 'the stick' to rule their countries and we're giving them the carrot anyway. Chretien is talking out of both sides of his mouth, and hurting Canada's international repu- tation in the same breath. What Chretien, Clinton, and international corporations see is the 1.17 billion people in underdeveloped China, and the dollar sigr\s they represent because North America has become an inflabpd mar- ket.

They are currently enjoying the success of the singles Resurrection, Tangerine, Leave It Alone and Gasoline. Both albums have gone triple- platinum in Canada. The success of Silver, which was made in a matter of days for under $5,000, came as a major surprise to the Montreal based quintet. "None of us really expected Silver to do as well as it did," said bassist Jeff Pearce. "We weren't expecting it to sell just under 400,000 copies, we basically just made the album as a demo." The hard part for Moist was to follow up the success of Silver, yet at the same time create something completely differ- ent. "When we went to make Creature, we

totally felt the pressure of knowing that it

had to be a really great record and that it had to move us forward as a band and as individuals," said Pearce. "Halfway through making Creature we finally real- ized that we had to get back to writing songs just for fun. As soon as we did that

it seemed to take all of the pressure away." The band was formed in 1993 in Vancouver. After releasing Silver and tour-

ing across Canada, the band felt it neces- sary to relocate to Montreal, which was

closer to home for the band and made it a more central spot to base their touring from. "When we got back to Vancouver fol- lowing our Silver tour, we felt the need for a change," said Pearce. "It just didn't feel like home anymore." Moist credit a lot of their rise to MuchMusic, who gave their music videos a lot of play across Canada. .
