	Does anyone know of a spreadsheet template for the '92 tax return?
I'd be interested in either a freebie or a not-too-expensive commercial 
product.  I'm not looking for something that will print a submitable form,
simply one which will do the calculations and give me the numbers to put
on the forms.

	Thanks..

With regard to the environment, I would argue the right to property
should include the right to sue for environment damage by the government
to your land, but not to the loss of speculative value of the land because
the legislature passed new environmental regulations.

With regard to zoning, the right to property should include the right
to sue for full market value if your property is expropriated, but
I am not familiar enough with more general zoning, to decide where
the line should be drawn.  I tend to lean to the view that land values
are speculative like the stock market, and buyer beware with regard
to zoning regulations is the appropiate market-oriented policy.
However, one should have a measure of protection against arbitrary
or inconsistent or prejudicial processes...if the zoning is can
be demonstrate to not be part of an overall consistent general
plan, but targetted at a specific company or individual.

there are cuttings from Globe and Mail, T. Star and several others I
cannot identify from the same period.  Also News Commentary on CJOH TV
around same time - I have text but not date.

Hi All,


What this country needs is a mid winter holiday.

I therefore propose the third Saturday of February
be proclaimed Ookpik Day.

On this day, children, adults in their care and
folks given to whimsey shall built upon their
property, the property of others including municipal,
provincial and federal land, a lifelike effigy of
the mythical Ookpik.

All of the above to be done in a general spirit of
merriment, celebrating the winter, spiritual values
associated with the earth, and the expectation of
a glorious Spring.

Enjoy.

Date: Tue, 12 Jan 1993 18:42:07 GMT
Reply-To: charan@crchh448.BNR.CA (Cliff Shivcharan)
Organization: Bell-Northern Research Ltd.

On VOA last evening, it was announced that Hamilton Green was under
fire from BOTH the PPP Gov't and the PNC, of which
he was FORMER General Secretary and PM in the PNC Gov't.

Green is accused of converting 3 vehicles, given to the Guyana Gov't 
by the charitable organisation FEED THE POOR, to his personal use. In
fact, these 3 cars can be seen parked in his yard. Bernard Dos Santos, 
in a motion filed with the High Court, is contending that 3 vehicles in
question were given to the GOV'T of GUYANA and has asked the Dept. of 
Motor Vehicle Licensing for the necessary registration to show that these
vehicles WERE indeed given to the Gov't (and in effect the PEOPLE) 
of Guyana. However, Green is contending that the vehicles were given to
him PERSONALLY and not to him in his capacity as PM. As a result, he
is claiming that the vehicles belong to him and is holding on to them.
The Court has given Green 10 days to respond to the Attorney General's
motion. 

Just a personal comment here: How low can one get so as to convert these
3 cars to one's personal use when so many people are hungry and these cars
were used to transport food for them? Just one more example of the 
fraud perpetrated by the PNC while in office.

Meanwhile, Green is calling for an independent tribunal to hear the 
charges brought against him by the PNC. These charges stem from 
disparaging remarks made by Green against former President Hoyte.
Green is alleged to have said that Hoyte sold out the PNC to former
Jimmy Carter and ,I quote here, "other White people" during the last
general election.

I got a couple of Stabroek News(Dec 6 & 13 1992) over the holidays 
and from the articles, it appears that the PNC is split into the Hoyte
and Green camps. A special session of the PNC congress has been set for
Feb. 13 (or 16 - my memory fails here) at to address this rift and the 
question of the leadership of the PNC. Green held a press conference and  
when asked if he was going to form his won party, he said he will address
that later.

So the FIGHT is ON. I will try to post a reound-by-round (and
I hope BLOW-by-BLOW) account of this FIGHT.

	

Regards,
Cliff.

Cuba and Caricom

Some 20 years ago, in an open act of defiance, several
English-speaking Caribbean countries established diplomatic
relations with Cuba. This occurred despite tremendous pressure
from the U.S. government aimed at isolating and destabilizing the
Cuban government.

In 1972, at a CARICOM Heads of Government Conference, officials
of Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago announced
they would re-establish ties with Cuba on Dec. 8 of that year.

Since then, Cuba-Guyana relations have involved the fishing,
sugar, forestry, mining and transportation industries. Although
there was a break in relations between 1981 and 1990 under the
U.S.-backed regime of Prime Minister Edward Seaga, the
Cuba-Jamaica exchange involved many areas, including medical care
and housing construction.

Major air treaties were signed with Barbados. Cultural
cooperation grew. Relations with Trinidad and Tobago saw
unfolding work in the economic, scientific-technical and cultural
fields.

In a letter marking the 20th anniversary of diplomatic relations,
Guyanese President Cheddi Jagan wrote: "Here in Guyana we praise
the noble, magnanimous example of the Cuban government and
people.  We know how difficult these times have been. We are well
aware of the valuable support you have offered us, particularly
in the field of medicine and the training of doctors and other
staff. We shall always be grateful for and respect your
contribution."

Jamaican Prime Minister Percival J. Patterson noted in his
message to President Fidel Castro: "Over the years, Jamaica and
Cuba have enjoyed relations based on a common Caribbean heritage,
the proximity of our coasts and our desire to promote peace and
understanding throughout the world. We have also developed
cooperation programs for the mutual benefit of our peoples."

Cuba now enjoys observer status in CARICOM and is seen by most
Caribbean leaders as a vital element in any plans for regional
integration.
