The Globe and Mail is supposed to be Canada's national newspaper.
It's a shame they think everyone lives in Ontario or Quebec.

is a good source for corporate news.

Yeeeoww!!! Digital Lampoon
From the people who brought you Yecch!!!,
a parody of Yahoo! I particularly like Senor CPU, but he doesn't
seem to answer his questions on a regular basis.
Harold Reynolds' Home page
A lot of things about pets, but still funny.
Fun e-Mail
Pronounced "funny mail" as opposed to "fun email".
This guy is really twisted.
Politically Correct Bedtime Stories
Alternatively, you can call it "Politically Correct B.S."
The real purpose of this site is to sell you things, but it's
still worth a look.
Personalized Shakespearean Insults
According to my spell-checker, that is the correct way of spelling
"Shakespearean".
Remember, each insult you receive is personalized!

A good place to go if you need a little humility.

I can't compete with this guy.
Truly a cult figure here in Canada.
Mark Riddell's Mr. Bean Page
Probably the best Mr. Bean page on the 'net.
Official Mr. Bean Site (UK)
Info on Mr. Bean's first big-screen spectacular.
Alex Grey's Mr. Bean Page
Pete Tandon's Mr. Bean Page
Mr. Bean for Prime Minister of Canada
I don't know if the Chief Electoral Officer (Jean-Pierre Kingsley)
will like this page - you can't vote directly for the P.M. in
Canada (In the Westminster parliamentary system, the leader of
the party with the most seats in the House of Commons is chosen
to become the Prime Minister).
Hurry - you have to get your vote in before September 1, 1996.
Every Rowan Atkinson Video, Audio, or Book Appearance
Mr. Bean Sounds
Considering the fact that Mr. Bean doesn't say very much, these
soundbytes are fairly valuable.
What can I say? I'm hooked on Star Trek, but I tried kept this section to a minimum.
Preview the next Star Trek: Deep Space 9
Preview the next Star Trek: Voyager
Paramount's official releases. I like the fact that they tell
you if they're going show a re-run.
U.S.S. Internet - Star Trek Page of the Week
Mr. Video Productions (Vidiot)

Psi Phi's Star Trek Movie Information
Spoilers about the new Star Trek movie
These pages will tell you everything there is to know about the
upcoming film, Star Trek: First Contact.
Star Trek on the World Wide Web
Information on mailing lists, other Trek sites, and more.
Star Trek: The Next Generation: Episode List
The Concise Star Trek Episode Guide
Details about every episode from one of the best television
series ever produced.
The Daily Star Trek Test
You are given a picture and have to identify which episode of
Star Trek: The Next Generation it came from. I think I
watched too much of that damned show - I can do surprisingly well.
The Star Trek: TNG Plot Generator
Gives you plot to a TNG story that didn't quite make it onto television.
Press your "reload" button to get a new plot.
The Women of Star Trek
Information on everyone from Ohura to Janeway. Heavy graphics
warning in effect here.
Trek Pictures
This collection includes previews of the Enterprise-E (the starship
that will be in the next Trek movie).
The Official Star Trek Site
It's the official site, but you have to subscribe to MSN if you
want to get to the interesting content (grr…).
Want to learn Klingon? Get yourself some napkins, then check
out these two places:
Klingon Language FAQ
The Klingon Language Institute
If you can believe it, most of the people who study Klingon are
people genuine linguists, not Star Trek fans!
The Capt. James T. Kirk Sing-a-long Page
Scary. My loyalties become divided when it comes
to Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds.
Standard & Poor's EIS
At the Member Login,
try the username "nobody" and password "pass".
Canadian Internet Business Directory
CANOE Money
Check out the current rates for savings, mortgages, term deposits,
and more!
The Vancouver Stock Exchange
A good place to put your money if you're not risk-averse (or if
you're crazy).
Downtown Vancouver Business Improvement Association
It's Better Downtown!
There are three of them in Canada. I'm sure you Americans out there are frightened by that fact. Can you imagine CPA's with identities? How about organizations trying to convince logical, young minds that accounting is exciting?
The Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of British Columbia
The Certified Management Chartered Accountants of Canada
The Certified Management Accountants of British Columbia
The Certified General Accountants' Association of Canada
The Government of Canada
The official website of the Canadian Government. A pretty good
site, especially if you consider the fact that a bunch of bureaucrats
put it together.
The Government of British Columbia
One of only a few sites that I've seen that uses frames well.
Hard to believe - something done surprisingly well by the government.
Debates of the House of Commons of Canada (Hansard)
The Hansard is a written record of what is said in the
House of Commons. It ordinarily doesn't make for interesting reading,
unless you have a lot of time on your hands.
The City of Vancouver
A lot of information is here, but I can't complain about my neighbour's
very loud dog on-line.
The Progressive Conservative Party of Canada
Blame the temporary setback of this party to Brian Mulroney.
The Reform Party of Canada
Alternatively, if you're Preston Manning, it's better known as
"The Refooorm Party of Canada, I love that word, Refooorm!!!"
The Liberal Party of Canada
You can give feedback to the government here.
The B.C. Liberal Party
The only party to vote for here in British Columbia,
and not just because its leader is related to Michael Campbell.
Rock 101 - CFMI Radio
Vancouver's home for Classic Rock. The bottom line reason I listen
to this station is that they play the most Beatles in town (well,
at least their later work). Plus, they don't play a lot of the
crap that passes for music these days (but, despite my loyalty,
I have never won a prize from them). Now laced with Real Audio!
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame + Museum
Imagine - a reason to go to Cleveland!
On-Line Music Database
It's fairly extensive, so don't get lost here.
The Anonymizer
Hides most of the information you reveal
about yourself when you visit a website.
Directly Open a URL.
The Postcard Store
E-mail is a more efficient way of communicating with someone on
the 'net, but this is more fun.
World of Cards
Similar service as The Postcard Store. Watch out for a slow download
from The Netherlands.
Virtual Flowers
Send virtual flowers to someone you love (or hate or whatever…)
NetMind Free Services Home Page
An entire list of free Internet services - take a peek.
Build-A-Card
Make cards for holidays, birthdays, thank you cards, or just for
fun!
POBoxes.com
These folks will forward your e-mail to any address for life (supposedly).
I'm waiting for the day when this service stops, and all my mail
ends up in oblivion (not that I'm being pessimistic).
The Phone Company (TPC.INT)
The folks here will send a fax for you anywhere in the world,
as long as you're lucky enough to be sending it to a place that
they're covering.
So far, I've only received a large coffee mug, a postcard, and a useless C.D. from the links these sites provide, but there's more coming. Finding free things is a little hard for Canadians; unfortunately, a lot of free offers are only available to Americans.
Get a free Canadian Flag
(offer over)
What's the Liberals' solution to anything? Spend money!
(but I know you already knew that)
The bleeding hearts in the Ministry of Canadian Heritage (a waste
in itself) want a million more Canadian flags to be flown by February
of 1997, so they're giving them away. Oh well, if their going
to waste even more of your tax dollars, you might as well take
advantage of it.
Jackie's Free Stuff Links
- Today's Stuff
List of items probably available to those outside of the US.
Scavenger's Quest
They constantly add new items, so it's worth checking out on a
regular basis. If you want, they will notify you by e-mail, if
they add new items.
alt.consumers.free-stuff - The Next Generation
alt.consumers.free-stuff - Deep Space 9
I really like the Star Trek allusions.
The Weekly Freebie Compilation
Free Stuff...That's Right Free Stuff
Yup, that's right, another link to even more free stuff.
Next to Nothing!
Mostly 1-800 numbers to call to get free things, but it does have
a number of links to freebies.
Useless WWW Pages
If you think this weaving this site was an exercise in futility,
you ain't seen nothing yet! Come here to see what
weird things people have come up with in their spare time.
Mirsky's Worst of the Web
I guess I'm promoting all the garbage that's on the Web by putting
this link here, but that's okay - I put my CD collection
on my page, after all.
I can only describe this section as a "slush fund" of links (Hmmm, it doesn't go anywhere else, I guess I'll put it here!) I promise to stop thinking like a bureaucrat (at least until the next time).
The Central Index of Canadian WWW Servers
I prefer going to their "list by scope",
but that's me.
The Amazing Fish Cam
Live cameras on two fish tanks at Netscape Headquarters.
You don't have to feed them or care for them in any other way
- just click and watch.
If you're using Netscape Navigator, try pressing <Alt><Ctrl><F>
- dirty, eh?
The Computer Paper
The best free computer magazine available. You can go directly
to their what's new
section.
Windows95.Com
Not an official Microsoft site (which makes it
better). Lots of information on Windows 95 is available here,
but I usually go for the free software.
NASA Shuttle Web
The Canadian Space Guide
QUICKcheck
Movie ratings from several major US newspapers.
Orcabay Sports and Entertainment
Name Dat Toon
Can you identify this week's song?
Auto-by-Tel
Don't buy a car before visiting this site!
Can't find what you want here? I recommend only a few other places:
Yahoo! or Yahoo! Canada
I think it's a more like a database of websites, as opposed to
a search engine. Other places have a better chance of finding
something you want to know about, but whatever Yahoo finds you
is fairly organized.
Dogpile or Search.com
It's a hundred search engines all in one place. If you can't find
it somewhere here, you won't be able to find it anywhere.
HumanSearch
If you can't find it yourself, ask someone else to do it for you.
