Ach-zo! Ve haff to go to Moscow to learn that our days of plenty in natural gas are rapidly coming to an end. Please see Petro-Canada seeks pact with Gazprom to ship Russian gas to new Quebec plant. In today’s Editor’s Notes I don’t have time to deal with the dirty politics south of the border that smells so much like the character assassinations applied to presidential hopefuls in recent past presidential elections.

Christopher Hitchens tells Americans on their Thanksgiving Weekend that they have something to be thankful for — Good news in Iraq. See you on True North’s No Gas Friday. Bur not at the pumps.
Looking forward
