    Pop icon Celine Dion revealed that she will be cancelling her upcoming shows after being diagnosed with an incurable neurological disorder that turns people into “human statues.” The “My Heart Will Go On” legend broke the heartrending news in a teary-eyed Instagram video Thursday. “As you know I’ve always been an open book and I wasn’t ready to say anything before but i’m ready now,” the 54-year-old Grammy-winner said in the devastating clip. “I’ve been dealing with problems with my health for a long time and it’s been really difficult for me to face my challenges and to talk about...

    WASHINGTON -- The Justice Department is investigating whether Guantanamo Bay detainees charged with roles in the Sept. 11 attacks were improperly given photos of CIA officers or contractors, according to a person familiar with the investigation. The investigation, headed by the Justice Department's counterespionage chief, John Dion, is trying to determine if military lawyers defending the detainees divulged classified information or compromised covert CIA officers, according to the person, who was not authorized to discuss the investigation and spoke only on condition of anonymity. It is a violation of federal law to identify CIA covert personnel, and it is a...

    I was about as cold as I’d ever been. The Midwest was in the midst of a bitter winter in February, 1959. The wind was punishing, trees were freezing up and snapping, and the little yellow school bus I was riding in with Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper had been breaking down. After our "Winter Dance Party Tour" appearance in Duluth, Minnesota, our bus broke down again. Buddy had had enough. He talked the club manager into chartering a plane to fly the headliners to our next show in Fargo, North Dakota, and tried to recruit us...

    The Telegraph ^ | 12/8/2008
    Canada's opposition leader Stephane Dion tendered his resignation on Monday, paving the way for new leadership to continue his Liberals' fight with the ruling Conservatives for control of parliament. "I have decided to step aside as leader of the Liberal Party effective as soon as my successor is duly chosen," Mr Dion said in a statement, days after fumbling a power grab from Prime Minister Stephen Harper's minority government. Former Harvard academic Michael Ignatieff is reportedly set to be named interim Liberal leader until a party convention in May, supported by one of two rivals who also sought to succeed...

    TORONTO — The Toronto Star is quoting senior Liberal Party sources as saying it is now a forgone conclusion that Stephane Dion will resign as Liberal leader before Christmas. In a report Sunday, the newspaper says it is likely Dion will come under irresistible pressure to step down at the Liberal caucus meeting in Ottawa on Wednesday.

    OTTAWA - In the battle of the airwaves Wednesday, Liberal Leader Stephane Dion showed up almost an hour late and a few pixels short in his duel with the prime minister he hopes to replace. Dion was supposed to address the Canadian public immediately after Stephen Harper, but thanks to a handful of snafus the television networks were left filling dead air. The Liberals delivered their video almost an hour late, 10 minutes after it was already supposed to air; and when it finally arrived both the English and French versions had been crammed onto the same tape, forcing broadcasters...

    Stéphane Dion was expected to step down as leader of Canada's opposition Liberal party last night after less than two years at the helm and within a week of a drubbing at the general election. The frontrunner to succeed him is Michael Ignatieff, the former Harvard scholar and author, who is the party's deputy leader. However, Mr Ignatieff is sure to face stiff competition for the job. Mr Dion is only the second Liberal leader in Canada's 141-year history who has not become prime minister. The Liberals were for years viewed as the natural governing party, but have been on...

    The usual media suspects greeted us on Tuesday morning with the happiest possible Liberal spin on the federal byelections in Toronto, Vancouver and Saskatchewan. "Liberals win three out of four seats!" No one actually put "Whee!" in the headline, but it would have been consistent with the feigned spirit of jollity at work. The reality for the Liberal party is much darker, however. The expected byelection result for an opposition party running in seats where they had strong pluralities last time out is pretty clear: it's got to be four-for-four. The Liberals went three-for-four, squeaking by with a paltry 151-vote...

    Thursday, October 25, 2007 The Nothing Party There’s been a lot of criticism of Stephane Dion’s decision to order his caucus to abstain from voting on the Throne Speech. After thinking about it for awhile, it actually makes sense to me. It’s the perfect symbol of what the Liberal Party has become, from the initial deterioriation of the party’s stature at the end of the Chretien era, to the disastrous tenure of Paul Martin, to the substantively vacant leadership race that led to the election of Stephane Dion as leader. The party, having discussed in great deal what it was...

    Tories still shy of majority, poll suggests CanWest News Service, Wednesday, July 11, 2007 MONTREAL -- As Canadians began to head off for summer vacation, they were still in no mood to grant Prime Minister Stephen Harper the kind of support that would translate into a majority government in another election, a new opinion poll suggested. In the Environics Research Group poll, the Conservatives had 37% support; the Liberals 28; NDP 17; Greens 11 and Bloc Quebecois slipping to 7. Party standings remained stagnant, said Derek Leebosh, a senior associate with Environics. He likening the parties' positions to "World...

    http://www.940news.com/local.php?news=9291 Dion Can Use More Support 2007-06-04 06:20:11 Liberal leader Stephane Dion continues to see his popularity plummet in Quebec. A new Leger marketing poll reveals he's the fourth most popular leader in this province. When asked who would make the best prime minister, only 12 per cent of Quebecers said Dion, whereas 16 per cent said NDP leader Jack Layton and Bloc leader Gilles Duceppe. Prime Minister Stephen Harper was way ahead with 36 per cent. Across the country however, Dion's in second place tied with Layton at 13 per cent support. Harper's still well in the lead nationally...
