Two Canadian communities among seven most intelligent in the world. Response by Bill Hennessy

Refreshing. I trust this process is not purely dollar driven as it seems are most processes in global affairs appearing in the news. Considering the alarming and unfolding of global events as they are being exposed primarily through the Internet an emergence of compassion among our leading institutions is in desperate need.B

"The key ingredients, he says, are tolerance, diversity and openness to new ideas."

The world is in desperate need of intelligent and pure of heart organizations to cut through the mounting "evil" of purely dollar driven enterprise in the global marketplace. Left in the hands of huge untrustworthy multinational and politically manipulative corporations (likened to Enron) the people of this Earth at an ever increasing rate are in my opinion being propelled towards monstrous "enslavement" in which humanity will play a secondary role.B What is now and growing more apparent daily is simply put a formula for failure. Nearing its' worst the US dollar is in imminent peril and the North American societies are at the brink of a disaster quite possiblyB worse than the crash of 1929. Not to mention the impending doom of an all out nuclear exchange beginning in the Middle East.

The administration of the US is highly suspect of complicity in "New World Order" subversions including the deliberate and unforgivable mass chaos among fundamentalist societies in the Middle East and thus is directly and indirectly causing the suffering and deaths of hundreds of thousands as we speak. At this very moment most of the Middle Eastern countries are proceeding to acquire nuclear weaponry as a direct result of international pressure. The picture is foreboding for all of us. At its present rate of acceleration climate change will be only a footnote in history.

I think with the emergence of intelligent organizations that are tolerant, diversified and open to new ideas, Canada could rise up with a new standard for all to see which, in a nutshell, protects this beautiful planet and all the very precious creatures and species on it.
