I lived in the Piccadilly for about a year back in 04-05. It was the worst and scariest year of my life. Between the tenents and the cockroaches and rats I was certain I was going to go crazy living there.

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.

Independent newspapers such as The Dominion are vital if democracy and true citizenship are to be saved in this age of awful concentration of corporate medias bent on formatting our opinion to serve the powerful interests which control such media. We as Haitians are especially grateful to independent media for having helped disentangle the web of lies in which the corporate media are still trying to smother our struggle for freedom and self-determination.

--Patrick Elie, founder of SOS Haiti and former Secretary of State for National Defense in Haiti
