U.S. President George W. Bush will name Susan Schwab, one of his most senior trade officials, to head the American team as the two sides try once again to end the acrimonious, five-year-old cross-border battle, said the sources. There had been speculation that Derek Burney, a former Canadian ambassador to the United States, would be named a special Canadian envoy, following reports of a secret visit he paid to the White House this month to discuss the softwood issue. However, government sources said yesterday Prime Minister Stephen Harper wanted Mr. Wilson, a finance and trade minister under former prime minister Brian Mulroney, to personally handle the difficult and complex softwood dispute. "Who better than Mike Wilson?" said one Canadian government official close to the dispute. Mr. Wilson became Canada's U.S. ambassador this month. The expected head of the U.S. team, Ms. Schwab, is now deputy U.S. trade representative and a Capitol Hill veteran. "She is very good and very knowledgeable," said one veteran U.S. trade lawyer in Washington. Neither government would confirm the appointments yesterday.

  • Aspers and Harper, a Toried Love Ties That Bind Canwest to the Conservatives
    Aspers and Harper, A Toried Love Ties that bind CanWest to the Conservatives. View full article and comments here http://thetyee.ca/Mediacheck/2007/11/13/ToriedLove/ By Marc Edge Published: November 13, 2007 TheTyee.ca [Editor's note: This is the first of four excerpts from Marc Edge's new book Asper Nation: Canada's Most Dangerous Media Company.] Its final report on the news media in Canada was not released by the Standing Senate Committee on Transportation and Communications until June of 2006. It had been more than three years since the study was conceived. It had been disbanded twice while Parliament was dissolved for federal elections. In the end, the Senate report was released by a new committee chair, Lise Bacon, as the term of Senator Joan Fraser had expired. The political landscape onto which the report landed had also been radically altered by the federal election earlier that year. After more than a dozen years of Liberal rule, a minority Conservative government came to power that February under Stephen Harper. A deregulationist regime in Ottawa meant that any prescription the senators might have had for legislative reform of Canada's news media ownership had little hope of being adopted. Perhaps that was why they proposed such modest measures to curb the growing power of Canada's media giants. The likelihood of any limits on media ownership being enacted by the new ruling party in Ottawa also grew scant for another reason. The Asper heirs had moved almost as close to the Conservatives as their father had been to the Liberal party.
