2007: not so lucky, so far

I'm not sure if it's a function of the press not having anything else to cover on new year's day, if it's a function of a lot of alcohol consumption and a pressure to have a blast, or if it's a sign of things to come, but 2007 is off to a rocky start.

In BC, two teenagers were attacked while walking a trail, prison guards are cracking down on inmates in New Brunswick, a female Montreal bus driver was attacked by two guys with a beer bottle, someone rammed their minivan into a house in PEI, a kid in Alberta died of exposure after wandering away from a party, three people were shot in separate incidents in Toronto, a Winnipeg man was in critical condition after crashing into a snow plow, and a boy was shot in the abdomen and a woman was found dead in New Brunswick.

Going live with Dominion 3.0

Well, the brand new Dominion site is online, after a lot of time and a few headaches. We've successfully (with a little help from friends) moved over ever one of the old entries. Thanks to the flexibility of Drupal, our new content management system, all the old urls still refer to the same articles.

The weblog archives didn't make it into the new system, but we didn't break any of the links, and you can still look at articles as they used to look on the old site in the archives.

Weblogs

Dominion Weblogs compiles the weblogs of Dominion editors and writers. The topics discussed are wide-ranging, but Canadian Foreign Policy, grassroots politics, and independent media are chief among them.

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
