A group of prominent elders had done exactly what some of you are advocating in Juun, 1990, some six months before dagaalada Xamar ka bilowdeen. In 1990 a group of traditional leaders, former politicians of Somalia's post-independence, civilian government, civil servants and intellectuals signed a Manifesto calling for the late Somali dictator, Mohamed Siyad Barre, to admit that his regime had put Somalia on the road to self-destruction, and support a Conference of a National Reconciliation and Salvation. The number of Manifesto signatories was 110. Written in a language that showed candour, the Manifesto made it clear that Siyad Barre's days as Somali president were numbered. The Manifesto sought to bring to the attention of Siyad Barre the civil war raging in many parts of Somalia; the bankruptcy of the former Commercial and Savings Bank - people used to line up in front of the Bank's branches early in the morning to withdraw their savings after the Somali government turned blind eye to irresponsible loan giving spree and the deteriorating security situation in capital - armed robbery and assassinations were on the increase. A thirteen member committee, headed by the late president of Somalia's first democratically elected government, Adan Abdulle Osman, was appointed. The committee was tasked to prepare the reconciliation conference that would put in place a caretaker government. The Manifesto signatories suggested the venue of the conference to be neutral country, preferably Djibouti. Djibouti recognised the United Somali Congress-installed interim government in 1991; in 2000 it sponsored a reconciliation conference that brought to the scene Transitional National Government of Somalia and the flawed 4.5 power-sharing formula only to be replaced by Transitional Federal Government of Somalia after Ethiopia and Kenya put their weight behind a new conference held in Kenya in 2004 as the mandate of the TNG was coming to an end. The military government detained some members of Manifesto signatories but released after it realised the public sentiment was on the side of the Manfiesto group. The detained men –no woman was member of the manifesto signatories refused to be intimidated because they knew parts of Mogadishu were already a no-go-area for the government; parts of the Somali regions were under armed opposition groups. Judging by the urgency and the timelines of the Manifesto, the signatories made a patriotic attempt to save Somalia from a civil war and gave the leaders of the Somali revolution a chance to salvage their accomplishments and allow a return to a parliamentary democracy, a chance the military regime did not the give the civilian government the junta ousted in bloodless coup on 21 October1969. Eight months after the publication of Manifesto, Somalia's military dictatorship was defeated by armed, clan based opposition groups. Key members of the signatories joined the United Somali Congress ( USC) government whereas some signatories were brutally murdered in Mogadishu controlled by victorious opposition group, USC. The optimism of the signatories and their faith in their abilities to solve Somalia's political problems evaporated; Hashi Weheliye and Haji Muse Boqor two of the signatories were killed at the height of war between the government forces and the USC militias in 1991, Ibrahim Mohamud Abyan a signatory and former president of now-defunct Somali National University, was murdered along with Abdi Tuhe, a chemist and Muse Yusuf, educationalist in Mogadishu controlled by a government set up the USC. It was the beginning of the betrayal with which many people associate the Somali Manifesto movement. In January 1991 Mogadishu fell into hands of the USC forces after the Somali government forces were defeated in a four week battle, forcing Siyad Barre to flee to his home region, Gedo. The USC had two wings, a Rome based group led by Hussein Ali Shiddo who was arrested in Ethiopia over leadership struggle with General Mohamed Farah Aideed who was in charge of the military wing of the USC. The Manifesto group was oblivious to the impact the wording of the document would have had on the power struggle brewing among armed opposition groups. Implicit message in the Manifesto was that military regime did not honour it promise to return to barracks but clung onto to power longer to a point where Somalia was falling apart. This message did not sit well with the supporters of the military wings of armed opposition groups especially the United Somali Congress whose Rome based wing elected Ali Mahdi Mohamed Mohamed , manifesto signatory, the Interim president of Somalia after USC captured Mogadishu in January 1991. Although the Manifesto signatories gave the armed opposition groups a role in the proposed national reconciliation conference they did not see the groups as the sole representatives of Somalis who wanted to see an end to the military dictatorship. Were the capabilities of armed, clan-based opposition groups ignored in the efforts to avert major clan warfare? Did the multi-clan make-up of the manifesto signatories make the tone of Manifesto too patronising for the armed opposition groups to respond to calls for national reconciliation conference favorably? Somalia's armed opposition groups either felt Siyad Barre was too weak to go into negotiation or they thought he would not be serious about reconciliation given his initial response to the Manifesto or they looked on the clan based nature of the armed opposition as a handicap Siyad Barre would exploit to his advantage. Not all signatories of the Manifesto had the interests of Somalis at heart; some were secretly members of clan based opposition groups; it is this group who made Somalia’s 1990 Manifesto more controversial than the very military dictatorship the signatories wanted to persuade to leave the political scene peacefully. Another important lesson from the Somalia 1990 Manifesto is the impact carelessly planned, internationally driven reconciliation conferences held outside Somalia have on the Somalis trust in shared political institutions that could help Somalia emerge from the abyss of lawlessness. Just as the leaders of Somalia's failed revolution thought the future of Somalia lay in one man, one party rule because of the failure of parliamentary democracy, the armed opposition groups thought the future of Somalia was in the in hands of clan based political organisations. The writers of Somalia's 1990 Manifesto were aware of the fact that the Somali revolution's leaders did not learn from the mistakes of civilian leaders they had deposed in 1969 nor had the opposition leaders learned from the mistakes of the revolutionary leaders they were plotting to depose. The lessons of the Somalia's 1990 Manifesto are as relevant today as they were twenty years ago. Xigasho

War Reer Ayslaan yeenan deg degin. Tan ha aqristaan. Alberta-Ontario cold war to linger amid strong Canadian dollar The strength of the Canadian dollar threatens to prolong inter-provincial tensions as its effects are felt differently across the country. Strong commodities prices have helped buoy the loonie combination that boosts Alberta's fortunes but hurts Ontario as it hammers manufacturing. Indeed, BMO Nesbitt Burns noted today, some 500,000 factory jobs have been lost in Canada over the 10 years since the currency began climbing back from its 62-cent lows. In a separate study today, senior currency strategists David Watt and Stewart Hall of RBC Dominion Securities pointed out that "wrenching adjustments are imposed on a relative few" by the high currency. And they noted the spat between Alberta's Premier Alison Redford and her Ontario counterpart Dalton McGuinty. "With future oil sands production, global oil demand and oil exports seen keeping [the Canadian dollar] persistently strong, regional tensions are likely to linger, particularly if the benefits remain highly concentrated." They cited "a (cold) war of words" between Alberta, home to Canada's oil industry, and Ontario, a manufacturing hub. Ms. Redford had wanted Ontario to help in the fight for pipelines, while Mr. McGuinty responded by saying he'd take a weaker currency over a "rapidly growing" energy sector in Alberta. "Reasonable projections for oil sands production, global oil demand and oil exports, with almost all of the increased oil production destined for foreign shores ... suggest persistent tailwinds to [the Candian dollar] over time," said the RBC strategists. "McGuinty’s statement hints at the potential for lingering regional tensions during the next commodity super cycle." Ontario's factories have been hit hard, though the province has still created hundreds of thousands of jobs in other sectors over the past several years. Mr. Watt and Mr. Hall believe most of the hit to manufacturing jobs is now done, though they don't see that work returning in the near future. Their comments came as BMO's deputy chief economist, Douglas Porter, published a study showing the impact of the dollar's return to grace over the past 10 years. Sii aqriso ___________________ The premier of Ontario now wants the Canadian dollar in uu ku noqdo suu ahaa in early 2000s when halkii doolar was worth 62 cents US camal. War kac dheh, waa gartiis doolar xawilaad kuma diree. I remember it used to cost $165 Canadian per US $100 sent.
