A healthy move? The Hamilton Farmers' Market Transitions
Jan. 4, 2011, 8:24 p.m.
Vendors are set to move into Hamilton's newly renovated Farmers' Market on the 20th of January, but it hasn't been an easy move. Controversy swirled late last year as several long term vendors had their application refused or termed incomplete. A group of concerned community members calling themselves the Friends of the Hamilton Farmers Market emerged to support the vendors through the crisis period. Friends of the Hamilton Farmers' Market member Jennifer Hompoth drafted this letter to Anna Bradford, the culture division director of the city's community service department as well as members of the Hamilton Farmers' Market Transition Sub-Committee, outlining the Friends' concerns about the vendor application process including its accessibility. At the heart of their concerns was the focus the city's new point system which favoured local farmers, "at the expense of anyone, or anything, which appears to be 'foreign/imported/other.'" To be sure, this is a many layered issue and on today's episode of the HJRC we speak with Friends of the Hamilton Farmers' Market members Jeanette Eby and Matt Thompson about some of those complexities. In particular, we take a look at the disproportionate health impact that would be faced by residents of the downtown core with the elimination of affordable produce. We also take a look at what's at stake for the health of our community.

High Cancer Incidence Among First Nations Peoples in Community Downstream from Tar Sands Mining
Jan. 4, 2011, 3:01 p.m.
John OâConnor, MD has conducted a family practice in the heart of the tar sands exploitation zone since the early 1990s. He has observed a great disease burden among First Nations populations that are exposed to tar sands pollutants including: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and the carcinogenic metals arsenic, chromium, cadmium and lead. The First Nations people of Fort Chipewyan eat fish and wildlife from the Athabasca River, Lake Athabasca and the surrounding boreal forests. The Alberta government has discovered that moose meat and cattail roots of this region are contaminated with arsenic at unsafe levels.
During the course of his practice in Fort Chipewyan, Dr. OâConnor has encountered two cases of cholangiosarcoma, a rare bile duct cancer. This cancer is associated with exposure to chemicals of the petroleum industry. Dr. OâConner and scientific associates are pushing for a research project that would assess the role of tar sands pollutants in cancer causation in the Fort Chipewyan population.

Where DO you get your news? Who reads newspapers now? Who watches TV news? Obviously Fox News and MSNBC present biased news (at least MSNBC gets the facts correct, Fox can't even be bothered with that), and CNN is one snooze button away from deep sleep. Politics is ugly and boring and obviously the politicians (even the ones you like) don't give a DAMN about you or me or what we're doing -- they have too much at risk to really do more than pretend to care.

Jan. 3, 2011, 2:32 p.m.
Annar Cassam is the co-editor of Africa's Liberation: The Legacy of Nyerere. The book is a collection of the words, works and legacy of the late Mwalimu Julius Nyerere, and is co-edited by Chambi Chachage. The book includes contributions from leading commentators, those who worked and fought imperialism alongside Nyerere, members of a younger generation â and Nyerere in his own words. Their writings reflect on Nyerere and liberation, the Commonwealth, leadership, economic development, land, human rights and education. Above all, they are a testament to the growing recognition of the need to rekindle the fires of African socialism to which Nyerere was deeply committed.
