Ottawa to match donations
Ottawa–Canadians who donate money to humanitarian agencies providing relief from natural disasters in Burma and China will have their dollars matched by the federal government, International Co-operation Minister Bev Oda announced yesterday.
There will be a cap on individual donations and the matching will be limited for a certain period."We will match the private contributions to organizations that are being able to do work in Burma," Oda told reporters.
Oda had earlier promised $2 million in aid to Burma, also known as Myanmar, devastated by the cyclone that the UN and Red Cross estimates could leave as many as 100,000 people dead.
Funding agencies in Burma will help Ottawa circumvent resistance from the ruling junta, which has not been co-operating with foreign relief efforts.
"Our government will be there when the need is there, but most importantly (we will) make sure that whatever aid that we provide is going to actually get to the victims and their families," Oda said.
New Democrat foreign affairs critic Paul Dewar welcomed the funding but said the government should take a more proactive role.
His Parliamentary Friends of Burma group held a press conference earlier yesterday at which Dewar suggested that Canada should consider helping the some 140,000 refugees in camps on the border with Thailand if it cannot enter Burma itself.
"There are problems getting into Burma. We do need to deliver aid quicker," he said.
"But one thing we can certainly anticipate is the numbers in those refugee camps are going to explode."

CNN在网站上的资料我印象中是没做过改动的，只是插入了一条新视频或者是改变了视频的播放顺序。而视频的播放顺序，他完全可以解释为按照视频插入网站的顺序。至于哪一天播哪几条视频，这就完全变成他们的自由了。这次CNN的报道从选材角度来说算是比较中立了。的确还有很多暗示一胎化使得灾民伤害加深的东西，不过也有从废墟中救出伤员的镜头。
个人认为，以CNN为代表的西媒早已经在中国人民心中失去了信誉。我们现在需要争取的，是西方的普通民众我们要打击，就要找准目标，找那种连西方的普世价值观也认为不对的东西。比如对新闻真实材料的篡改，比如选材的过于明显的倾向，而对于有可能争议的目标暂时可以放弃。
