Curt Weldon, Able Danger, Toronto 19

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Congressman Curt Weldon is keeping me up nights. It's the intrigues like Able Danger and the so-called "Toronto 19".

I received a personal telephone call from Weldon on Wednesday asking me if I had followed up on whatever was available through research on suspected terrorists in the "Toronto 19". Canada Free Press Associate Editor Arthur Weinreb, office manager Dan Carrier and myself had met with Weldon in his office on Feb. 15.

Both Weinreb and I tried to find more details about the fate of the group on our return to Toronto, but could come up with no more information than what Weldon already revealed in his book, Countdown to Terror.

However, I suggested to Weldon during Wednesday’s phone call that he should try Canada's new Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day. "He's a sort of Curt Weldon of Canada," I told him. One of those politicians who comes with the courage of his convictions and one ready to rid this country of terrorists.""

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Vietnam’s National Assembly Chairman Nguyen Van An visited Cuba on Friday and met with Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro.

The Vietnamese News Agency said An’s meeting was part of a tour of Latin America. The news agency said during his meeting with Castro in Havana, An admired what he called “Cuba’s remarkable achievements” in view of the “current international situation.”

He also told Castro that Vietnam continues to support “solidarity for the Cuban revolution.”

Vietnam, Cuba and Latin America have great potential for cooperation in agriculture and bio-technology, An said.

Castro reviewed Cuba's situation and discussed energy conservation programs carried out in Cuba while An briefed Castro on Vietnam's preparations for the coming 10th National Party Congress and the results of visits to Venezuela, Argentina and Brazil.

After meeting with Fidel, An met with his brother and right-hand man Raul Castro.

Before meeting with Fidel Castro, An and Cuban Parliamentary Leader Ricardo Alarcon attended the opening ceremony of the Vietnam-Cuba Business Forum hosted by the Vietnamese Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Cuba Chamber of Commerce in Havana.

Addressing the forum, An asked businessmen of both countries to seek mutual measures aiming at promoting commercial, trade and investment cooperation which would enhance the two countries' relationship.

Vietnam is now a favored environment for foreign investors including Cuban businessmen, he stressed."
