'What Will They Show Us?': A Panama News Editorial

The Panama News contends in an editorial in its March 5 - 18, 2006 edition that,

This year the Panamanian political scene is likely to be dominated by two great issues, an anticipated free trade agreement with the United States and a probable referendum on a plan to expand the Panama Canal by installing a third set of locks that's big enough to accommodate ships that are too big to fit through the present canal. On both issues battle lines have long been forming, even though in neither case have we seen any actual plan.
For a perspective on how and why those battle lines have formed, please see "What will they show us?"
