      Running a railroad, even if it's government-owned, means behaving like a business. Jean Cormier, vice-president of public relations for Canadian National, says many people don't understand that. Cormier said that because of its government association, many people view the railway as inefficient, bureaucratic, wasteful. CN is out to change that, although it has many problems because it still is an Ottawa-operated and deficit-plagued entity.

      Victor Ling is world- renowned for his work in cancer research. Last year he received both the Dr. Josef Steiner Prize in Europe and the General Motors Kettering Prize - recognized as the top international award for cancer research - at a June dinner in Washington, D.C. Ling helped discover how cancer cells resist the effects of tumor-destroying drugs by using a tiny protein. The protein ejects drugs from the cell before they have time to act. Ling spent years refining and confirming the discovery, which has sparked a search for the right decoy drug capable of fooling the protein and allowing cancer-fighting drugs to slip in for the kill.
