"Even a person like Saddam Hussein shouid not be sentenced to death" - Manfred Nowak, the U.N. special Investigator on torture.

Feds ignore First Nations crisis

Remember last year's Kashechewan water crisis when over half of the remote reserve's pop- ulation was evacuated because of tainted water. Remember how shocked everybody was. Living conditions on Kashechewan, a Canadian First Nations reserve, were being compared to the living conditions of Third World countries. Remember how the water crisis was going to be a catalyst for change. Paul Martin, Canada's prime minister at the time, signed the Kelowna Accords shordy after the Kashechewan evac- uation. The accords were supposed to ensure that $5.1 billion was being spent on improving the social and economic situation of Canada's native population.

Ottawa promised to fix the problem. It promised Canadians would no longer have to live in Third World conditions. This week, the Globe and Mail ran a story detailing life on a small Ojibwa reserve in Northern Ontario.

Life on Pikangikum, which is located 250 km north of Kenora, remains hard. There is a shortage of housing for the 2,300 people living on the reserve with some homes holding up to 18 people. The local school is not large enough to accommodate aJl the students and cramped living conditions have led to social problems, with suicide becoming commonplace.

And if that isn't enough, (surprise, surprise,) there is a drinking water crisis. The (I'/o/v reports Pikangikum is one of three reserves in Ontario where people continue to live in a state of emergency because of tainted water. Attawapiskat, and Marten Falls are the others. Earlier this year. Prime Minster Stephen Harper decided to scrap the Kelowna Accords because he said the plan was put together in haste and was unrealistic. Although Harper said he would develop a revised version of the accords nothing has been put forth so far. It's time Harper proposes something.

It has been over a year since Kashechewan started making headlines, and the Toronto Star reported yesterday that discussions have only now begun on rebuilding the community. There are 49 native reserves in Northern Ontario, 19 of them are currently under boiled water advisories. The lack of action is deplorable. Only 20 of the 387 houses in Pikangikum are connected to the reserve's water plant that was built in 1995. The. remaining 367 homes are forced to get by without water or sewage servic- es. Somebody should remind Harper of the state of Canadian reserves. He may have forgotten. Hussein's ruling doesn't help Iraqis

Amidst fears of riots and violent upheaval in Iraq, a guilty verdict was handed down against former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein and seven co-defendants for the 1982 killing of 148 Shiite Muslims. The mass killings came after what was said to be an assassination attempt against Hussein. He was sentenced to death by hanging when the year-long trial came to a close on Monday. The legitimacy of the trial has been questioned with the death sentence coming just days before the U.S. heads into mid-term elections. Some around the world view Hussein's death sentence as a tool to justify the U.S. led invasion of Iraq. The verdict provides a chance for the people of Iraq to unite and take back their country but Hussein's execution may provoke the opposite.
