...Mark Souder, a Republican U.S. Congressman from Indiana and a member of the Canada-U.S. Inter-Parliamentary Group, predicts the principal consequence of the Conservatives' ascent to power will be a new "tone of mutual respect" between the two capitals. Harper's Arctic admonition could rekindle the old doubts, but improvements in the U.S.-Canada relationship will probably come through a mutual recognition of the new "geopolitical realities" in an energy-hungry and security-conscious North America, says Professor John Thompson, who teaches Canadian studies at North Carolina's Duke University.

AFTER READING YOUR ARTICLE ON THE allegations of impropriety involving House majority leader Tom DeLay and his associates, I was appalled by the comment from another Republican, Indiana's Mark Souder, about whether DeLay can survive the scandal. Souder said, "With Tom, it is going to have to be more than just allegations. Tom has done so much fund raising." That is an incredible statement. Does it mean that because DeLay is such a prolific fund raiser, he gets a pass on possible ethics violations? Public officials must adhere to high standards of ethical behavior...
