UNIT 1

Readings from TIME
>Why America Is Still An Easy Target
The author of the new book America the Vulnerable exposes how the U.S. has failed to protect its infrastructure from terrorists

>Lights Out

>Adding Fuel to the Fires
Once again, Canada is dangerously mishandling its forest blazes

>Turning Over a New Maple Leaf
Paul Martin has big plans, but is Canada ready for a larger role in the world?
