News From Canada, Updates From Zimbabwe and New Orleans
<p>A conversation on the week's news in Canada with Les Leyne, political columnist for theVictoria Times Colonist.</p> <p>Power sharing talks between Zimbabwe's main political rivals failed last week.

For an update on the situation in Zimbabwe, we turn to former Africa Bureau Chief for Newsweek, Joshua Hammer.</p> <p>Also, three years ago this week, Hurricane Katrina violently changed the landscape of New Orleans: Physically, socially and politically.

What still needs to happen?</p>

Forest Management, Fire Prevention and Climate Change
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recently concluded that disturbances from pests, diseases and fire will have serious impacts on our forests. There will be longer fire seasons and larger areas burned. This year, the Forest Service has nearly exhausted its budget fighting the fires in California. Is there a more effective way to spend our money to prevent fires in the first place? Should we even try? Forests used to burn more frequently, it was part of their natural cycle, but as more homes are built on the edge of wilderness areas, the focus is fire suppression rather than fire prevention. How should our forests here in the Pacific Northwest be managed to prevent large scale fires? Should we let timber companies harvest excess deadwood? Or could extra wood be burned instead of coal or gas in rural electricity generators? Perhaps we should start fires more regularly to get rid of the dead wood before it accumulates?
