Feedback: Our first two Talking Union programs featuring B.C. Premier Glen Clark got a lot of response. This week we air some of your calls and e-mail.

Here's a sample of your comments:

"Glen Clark speaking to the Hospital Union at UBC: if this is as good as it gets for him, adios amigos. You did all of us a great service by letting him speak. He just hangs himself every time he opens his mouth . . . you cannot blame everything on the Asian flu."

"How refreshing to be able to hear some good old NDP politics and the Premier treated with some respect finally. Thank you very much."

"Excellent program . . . we should more of those talks by Glen Clark. Maybe we can counteract some of the dreadful Conrad Black newspapers."
