In Cabinet
Europeian Economic Summit
Canada was invited to Europeia's Economic Forum summit. Kyleslavia, Parrrrtay and Almonaster all registered to attend. The forum took place June 23-26th. Attendance was hampered by masking problems on Europeia's board.
A quote from Pez at the summit summed up the reason why the summit did not reach a positive outcome:
"Economies are the way that society distributes limited resources. Because resources don't exist on the forums, there's nothing to buy, so it doesn't work."
Forum changes
Old Ogastein added quick links to the top of the forum to help ease navigational issues. Many thanks, Ogy!
Icons for ambassador(a)s
A new look for ambassadors was approved by the cabinet. The group icons are for our esteemed visiting ambassador(a)s:
England
England requested to have its embassy reopened. The request was denied at the end of the last term of office. The newly elected cabinet is currently considering their request.
House of Commons
Due to inactivity, the Republican National Party, The Democratic Party of Canada and The Conservative Party of Canada forums were archived.
The HoC also saw the formation of two new parties:
The Moderate Party
The Canadian Unity Party
And the uniting of these two parties into The Federalist Party
There is much lively discussion concerning the possible creation of a titluary head of state, the concept of civil debate among parties, and separation of church and state.
Current legislation under discussion: revising the region's Standards of Diplomacy.
Newcomer Kartoffel Kanzler has introduced pork barrel politics by building a party platform based on bacon. Bacon.

The Water Cooler
Check out the 10 Top Places to Live in Canada: "Where is Toronto?" asks bweezy.
Guys vs. Gals heats up the Water Cooler. The Gals took a stunning victory in round one. Who will win round two?!?!?
Role Play
At the village there are talks of a brand spanking new edition of The Moose, with new Chief of Press Kyleslavia and help from Master Wordsmith Almonaster.
A new global domination role playing game - the World - made by Mirahge has been a success, although Mir did not know who Carmen Sandiego is.
Niongor made this move: "By an over-whelming majority, Alberta votes to join the United States."
The United States welcomes Alberta, especially its residents and musician Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans.
The Office is now the longest running RP game.
There have been two newer games made by Mirahge - Heroes and 28 Days, have become very popular across the region, despite (or maybe because of) the death and destruction.
