USDA "HOT" country report on Canada

http://www.fas.usda.gov/gainfiles/200702/146280223.pdf

I'm not kidding they call these reports that on the site. I've only read the bio-fuel paragraph, but it sounds like straight reporting with a touch of analysis. They have it right, we lag behind the States and that if we get into biofuel it will be for different reasons. I wonder how much influence these have.

Another "cool" thing from the States are the CIA reports and maps you can access on line. I'm again not kidding, that CIA! I mean no state secrets or spy stuff, but detailed economic overview and analysis
