 Does the nationalist approach have the approval of the English population
of Quebec, or the Mohawk population of Oka, or the Cree population of the
North or the various other ehtnic groupsin Quebec.

You speak of "pan-Canadian crap" and unity as if these were not solutions
to the real problem of governing a country of multiple cultures. Why do
you think these problems of cultural clash would not exist in an
independent nationalist Quebec. Do you think that the Warriors of Oka
will become docile because of Jacques Parizeau's rehetoric.

This is just another Quebec nationalist pipe dream which criticizes and 
demeans a Canadian system which was ceated to face reality. A reality
which will explode the nationalist fantasy if Quebec independence ever
comes to pass without acceptance of a multucultural Quebec.

You don't consider Newfoundland to be a part of Canada? Or are you

  Er, the prohibition is the one from the old ARPAnet, and for
the new NSFnet, and the prohibition is not against recruiting people, 
it's against **doing** business.
  You can even use the APRAnet to deliver services, if the recipient is
a legitimate user of the net and is entitled to recieve things via it.

  News flowa across other nets that don't have the same restrictions:
check before using, as they may be less (common) or more (rare) restrictive.

I am amazed that anyone would be concerned about who posted a job to this
news group.   I would expect that if someone is reading can.jobs, they fall
into one of 3 categories
1-they are looking for a job
2-they are looking for someone to fill a job
3-they are curious what kind of jobs are available in Canada

Now, if I were looking for a job, I could no more care if I got a job through 
an employment agency than through a news paper ad (just like I don't care if 
I buy a house from a real estate agent or directly from the home owner)

If someone is looking to fill a position (like myself), would that not, by
definintion, be a commercial use?  If that were a violation of usenet 'rules' 
what purpose would there there be of having **.jobs conferences?

For that matter, solicitation of one's personal belongings (ie, item for sale)
could be considered commercial in nature, that too should not be allowed!

     The name of the newsgroup is can.jobs, so I see no problem with

  Mr. Ridge is technically correct in his classification of such

Any job posting is commercial activity.  I don't see what difference

Despite what some people have said on this group, tickets will *not*
be available until 1995.  They expect to have about 2-3 million tickets
available to all the various events at that time.  Call the Atlanta

Cafe' Diem is a relatively new place with plenty of atmosphere. It's 
located on N. Highland Ave. half a block north of the North Ave. 
intersection. 

If you are interested in something a little more avante garde, try sitting
outside at Tete-a-Tete in Little 5-Points (it's nestled in between 
Fellini's Pizza & Fellini's Pasta at the 5-Point intersection). There
is seldom a dull moment in this neighborhood.

One of my favorites is Sylvia's Atomic Cafe' located at the intersection of
McLendon Ave. and Clifton Rd. in the Candler Park area. There are several
very unique shops at this intersection including a new art/performance
gallery called "Pamela Godilla's".
