...massive over-fishing, much of it done by large refrigerated European ships. "It had devastating consequences regionally," says Nolan. "The memory of that has great psychological power for Canadians."

"Canadians don't like to be pushed around or feel that they are being bullied by the Americans," she said. Sometimes they like to bully back...
...working this summer at the Forward, a national Jewish weekly based in Manhattan. While the paper prides itself on serious reporting--and I haven't heard of a slush fund to pay willing eye-witnesses to make up stories for us--the reach of the tabloids is unavoidable.

Drexler knew she was expecting and had time to have a legal abortion. This horrible...
...doesn't remember her), but is now free to dissect her varying accounts of what happened in the suite. He should have no trouble exploiting the evidence that the troopers hoped to strike it rich and the picture of Jones as a lovesick puppy hoping to catch Clinton's eye. How will Jones counter that image? She and her handlers scheduled an interview with TIME last week, then canceled it. She may find another forum in which to repeat her tale of woe, or she may wait for her day in court. That could be coming sooner than anyone thought...
