Quote :"Calgary's Pure Technologies has employees who travel in and out of Libya who help to monitor and maintain the infrastructure of the Great Man River Project, the world's largest irrigation project."UnQuote

I think you also need to do some more investigating on who actually works there, ok Pure does have people on the Great Man River Project, but maybe you should look at how many Petro Canada people live and work there, as well several other Canadians working there for other companies. Homework needs to be done, just not one little company being affected. I call Global National two weeks ago and they could have cared less on the is lead, but I am glad you finally got this out.

Some us have known about this problem for going on 3 weeks, and no one wanted to listen, I called Global News, and also sent off and email to Canadian Foreign Affairs and received a reply telling me they knew nothing about the problem, email to prove it. And now it is in the news. Ok, Cannon should have kept quiet for heavens sakes,it has now affected a number of businesses and people to make a living in Libya. Bloody stupid and incredible.
By the way, I spent more than 10 years working in there and I do know what I am talking about.

I also think the reporter is an Easterner as he mentioned only Pure Technologies, which have an office in Toronto, I met the manager out of Bengahzi a year ago. But what about the Alberta companies in there, this is a fricking mess.

Moammar Gadhafi is a blooming idiot. I can't think of anything Libya has to offer to the world except for oil of course. For those who make a living in Libya, it is of course a set back but certainly not the end of the world. There's lots of other countries around the globe run by despots that will welcome us. Let's leave Moammar with his mental disorders and his oil and bid him good riddance.

well lets do the same,lets not issue any visas for people from Libya until this is resolved. I am planning a trip to the middle east in March 2010, I guess I will not spend any money in Libya, thanks Moammar(hope you die soon,painfully like in a plane underwater)
