Federal policy dcouments which state an aim of reducing
poverty (contrary to their actions) can be found at the health
canada website.  There are nurmerous wonderful documents that
health workers can use to justify addressing poverty issues.

*************************************************************
In the early hours I read in the paper of epoch-making
projects
On the part of pope and sovereigns, bankers and oil barons.
With my other eye I watch
The pot with the water for my tea
The way it clouds and starts to bubble and clears again
And overflowing the pot quenches the fire.

 -- Bertolt Brecht
