Lawrence's Links

back to my main page...

Here are a few of my favourite links - politics, Canada, news, Mexico, music, hockey, poetry... I'll be updating these too...

(last updated on Feb. 24, 1998)

RedFrog - Poems from the planet Earth - an on-line archive of poetry from around the world. The site is in Norway. Add your own favourite poet or poem!
Proceso - Mexico's leading investigative magazine, with exhaustive coverage of the country's ruling elite and what's really going on behind the scenes. Essential reading for Mexiphiles (is that a word? it is now...). Proceso reported on Zapatista activity in Chiapas almost a year before the fighting started. This is a new site.
La Jornada - one of Mexico's best newspapers - detailed coverage of politics, Chiapas, and great black and white photos!
Unilien/Unity Link - stuff (French and English) on Canada's ongoing unity crisis (sigh).
The Globe and Mail - (on-line version) for all you foreigners out there, English Canada's "paper of record," and the best English paper in the country...
The Leonard Cohen Files - a page in honour of Canada's coolest poet and singer...
CANLinks - Some interesting links to mainly Canadian sites... add your own site...
The Council for Canadian Unity - Some of this stuff is a bit academic, but it's a good source of unity info, and discussions of the issues...
The Stan Rogers Page - information about Canada's greatest folk singer, greatest singer and songwriter, period, sadly missed since he died in a plane crash in 1983...
Mark Messier Page (unofficial) - He's now with the Canuckleheads, but can the Mess still do it? This (mostly Ranger) fan page has stats, bio information, a photo gallery, and even a Mark Messier joke!
Zapatistas in Cyberspace: A guide to analysis and information - A BIG page with loads of links and info on the Chiapas uprising in Mexico, and solidarity groups around the world. Most of this stuff is very sympathetic, but it also includes a couple of studies by the Rand Corporation on the securitiy implications of happenings in Mexico.

More to come...
