The child is Jewish, and has escaped from Nazi Germany with his strange companion, a grey parrot that spews out endless strings of numbers in German. What do these numbers mean, and why do so many people people seem interested in them? Pulitzer Prize winning author Michael Chabon has created a marvelous novella sure to appeal to all fans of The Great Detective (Sherlock Holmes to the uninitiated). Although the detective is never mentioned by name, all the clues are there for you to piece together--as are the clues about the true meaning of all those numbers. It's a fast-paced and well-conceived story with Chabon's usual blend of touching characters, odd events, and whimsy.

For More Information 20 Robert St. West call: 905-987-3000 Newcastle, ON LIB IC6 The recent Ottawa visit of U.S. President George W. Bush revealed the continuing hypocrisy of Prime Minister Paul Martin and his team. For years the Chretien and Martin regimes have allowed Liberal members and consultants consultants to openly flaunt the party's anti-American attitudes. attitudes. Yet when the President comes to town those same people people can't line up fast enough to see him. Despite being the leader of Canada's biggest trading partner partner and closest ally, most opposition MPs were lucky enough just to get into their Parliament Hill offices', let alone be able to meet or see President Bush. After the way this government government has treated relations between the two countries, it's clear why the President felt the need to decline a last minute invitation to address the House of Commons. Conservative Party of Canada Leader Stephen Harper was the only opposition leader to get a private meeting with the president but even this was not granted in good grace. Conditions in the assigned room at the conference centre were so shabby that the President's advance team had to rent chairs from a nearby hotel to give the participants a place to sit. There were 800 hundred seats at the Tuesday night din ner. While the Conservative Party was happy to get an allotment of tickets to the dinner, dinner, it was dwarfed by the gaggle gaggle of Liberal hangers-on who got the privilege of dining with the President. Any pretence at protocol went out the window, as Martin made sure he looked after his own people including party organizers, fundraisers, lobbyists, failed candidates and even the Prime Minister's doctor. A dinner for the President of the United States should not be used as a reward for Liberal insiders while members of Parliament, of all parties, take a back seat. Martin's behavior during the president's visit demonstrates demonstrates that the Liberal attitude of handing out goodies to your best buddies, an attitude that gave us the sponsorship scandal, scandal, is still alive and well in Ottawa.
