Magpie River (Ontario)

The Magpie River is a river in Algoma District, northeastern Ontario, Canada, The river empties into Michipicoten Bay on Lake Superior near the town of Wawa. The river drains an area of about 1900 km2.

Course
The river begins at Upper Magpie Lake at an elevation of 420 m and flows north then northeast through a series of lakes including Wejinabikun Lake and North Wejinabikun Lake, to a point at 48.72333°N, -84.55833°W at an elevation of 357 m, before turning southeast to enter Mosambik Lake at an elevation of 347 m. The river exits at the north end of the lake and heads further north, and reaches a point as far north as 48.72722°N, -84.49389°W at an elevation of 348 m, before heading east southeast into the northeast corner of Esnagi Lake. From the north end of Esnagi Lake, the Five Mile Portage leads north, over Five Mile Creek, to Five Mile Bay on Kabinakagami Lake on the Kabinakagami River, part of the Albany River system, which leads north to James Bay. An alternate route to James Bay is to take the further Pine Portage from Kabinakagami Lake then up the Oba River to the Albany Forks, from which the Mattawitchewan River flows downstream as part of the Missinaibi and Moose rivers into the bay.

At Esnagi Lake, the river takes in the right tributary Tripoli Creek. The Magpie river then leaves Esnagi Lake at the south end where the Canadian Pacific Railway transcontinental mainline crosses. It continues south, passes over the Jean Falls, and takes in the left tributary Peckerwood Creek at an elevation of 339 m. The river takes in the left tributary Hobon Creek just upstream of the community of Dubreuilville. There, it takes in the left tributary Herman Creek, is crossed by Highway 519, and takes a sharp turn west. The Soderston Creek enters from the right, and the river passes over the Toolong Rapids, where it once again heads south. The Evans Creek enters from the right, and the Magpie River passes over the Cedar Falls, then further downstream the Steephill Falls. The river takes in the right tributary Catfish Creek, and reaches Wawa, where it is crossed by the Algoma Central Railway branch line to Michipicoten Harbour and Highway 17. The river then passes over the Magpie Falls, and takes in the Michipicoten River just before its mouth at Michipicoten Bay on Lake Superior at the site of Michipicoten Provincial Park.

Economy
There are also several hydroelectric plants on the river. The largest hydroelectric is located at Steephill Falls.

Legal person
To protect the natural landmark, the Innu Council of Ekuanitshit and the Minganie Regional County Municipality declared the Mutuhekau Shipu a legal person in 2021. Now the river has nine rights, among them the right to flow, maintain biodiversity, be free from pollution, and to sue.

Wikipedia:Peer review/Polish Constitution of May 3, 1791/archive1

Polish Constitution of May 3, 1791
It has been suggested on the article's talk page that it is ready for FAC. I still want to expand it with a few more historical details, but I think that the structure/references/lead and such are good enough for FAC. Still, I'd appreciate your comments first - would you change anything? Or like to see more details on something? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 10:41, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * The quotes section is not very attractive, could you pick the most relevant quotes and inlcude them in the text, mabye in a section called praise for the constitution. Was there any opposition to the adoption of the constituion, or later criticisms of the constitution?--nixie 08:18, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * The quotes will be moved to Wikiquote soon, but for now it is easier to have them here. As for the opposition, I guess the aftermath section is too short - I will expand on it. There was significant opposition to it, this is why it was adopted in the mentioned quasi coup d'etat and later overthrown in the war. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 18:51, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

CADSTAR

CADSTAR is a Windows-based electronic design automation (EDA) software tool for designing and creating schematic diagrams and printed circuit boards (PCBs). It provides engineers with a tool for designing simple or complex, multilayer PCBs. CADSTAR spans schematic capture, variant management, placement, automatic and high-speed routing, signal integrity, power integrity, EMC analysis, design rule checks and production of manufacturing data.

Originally developed by U.K. PCB vendor Racal-Redac, CADSTAR has been part of the Zuken product portfolio since its acquisition in 1994. The software is developed at Zuken's Technology Centre, ZTC in Bristol, United Kingdom.

The basic features of CADSTAR can be tested with the free version of CADSTAR Express or Schematic and PCB files produced by CADSTAR can be reviewed using the free CADSTAR Design Viewer.

History
The first version of CADSTAR was released in 1988 running under DOS. CADSTAR for Windows 1.0 was released in March 1994. Since then, there has been about one major release per year. Zuken subsequently released eCADSTAR in 2019.

Modules
CADSTAR contains many modules for specific uses such as:

 * Design Editor This enables the engineer to draw schematic circuits, define the PCB layout and produce the manufacturing data from the completed PCB.
 * Library Editor Used for the creation of Symbols, Component and Parts. Supports ODBC compliant databases.
 * Embedded Router Used to create the tracks (layout) and other copper features of the board within the Design Editor environment.
 * P.R.Editor Used to create the tracks and other copper features of the board in an external environment to the Design Editor with many more features than the Embedded Router.
 * High-Speed P.R.Editor Allows the user to define a wide range of circuit rules and routing constraints to control the layout process.
 * Signal Integrity Verify Post-layout signal integrity simulation toolset and what-if analysis.
 * Power Integrity Fast analysis methodology including what-if analysis for concurrent power integrity.
 * EMC Adviser Helps designers predict, analyse and control EMC design issues.
 * Design Migration Tool Used to migrate designs and libraries from other EDA-tools into CADSTAR.
 * Variant Manager Allows support of variant assemblies for different part values or not fitted components on the same PCB.

2004 Adjara crisis

The Adjara crisis (აჭარის კრიზისი), also known as the Adjarian revolution or the Second Rose Revolution, was a political crisis in Georgia's Adjaran Autonomous Republic, then led by Aslan Abashidze, who refused to obey the central authorities after President Eduard Shevardnadze's ouster during the Rose Revolution of November 2003. The crisis threatened to develop into military confrontation as both sides mobilized their forces at the internal border. However, Georgia's post-revolutionary government of President Mikheil Saakashvili managed to avoid bloodshed and with the help of Adjaran opposition reasserted its supremacy. Abashidze left the region in exile in May 2004 and was succeeded by Levan Varshalomidze.

Tensions
Adjaran leader Aslan Abashidze, being in strong opposition to the Rose Revolution, declared a state of emergency immediately after Eduard Shevardnadze's ousting on November 23, 2003. Following negotiations with central authorities, the state of emergency was temporarily canceled on January 3, 2004, just one day before the presidential election. The state of emergency was renewed on January 7 and was followed by the crackdown of an oppositional demonstration. On January 19, dozens were injured as a result of clashes between protesters and police in the southern Adjaran village of Gonio. The protesters demanded the resignation of Aslan Abashidze. In the wake of Abashidze's visit to Moscow, the Russian Foreign Ministry issued a statement on January 20 backing Abashidze's policy and condemning his opposition as "extremist forces". In late January, Georgian officials, including Acting President Nino Burjanadze and President-elect Mikheil Saakashvili, met with Abashidze in Batumi.

On February 20, the opposition movement's offices were again raided after the opposition had staged a protest rally in Batumi. Clashes between supporters of and opposition to Abashidze also took place in Kobuleti. These protests coincided with the visit of the Secretary General of the Council of Europe (CoE) Walter Schwimmer in Batumi, who held talks with Abashidze. President Saakashvili demanded Adjaran leadership abolish the Autonomous Republic's Security Ministry, which was Abashidze's main weapon of repression.

At the Choloki Bridge
The situation escalated on March 14, when the central Georgian officials took advantage of Abashidze's being in Moscow and headed to Adjara to campaign for the parliamentary elections scheduled for March 28. However, pro-Abashidze armed groups blocked the administrative border of Adjara at the Choloki River and prevented President Mikheil Saakashvili and other members of the government from traveling to the Autonomous Republic. The Adjaran authorities claimed Saakashvili was going to take control over the region by force by staging a coup.

In retaliation, Georgia's central authorities imposed partial economic sanctions against its defiant region in a bid "to exhaust Adjaran regime's resources". Tensions defused between Tbilisi and Batumi on March 18 after President Saakashvili and Aslan Abashidze met and struck a deal that allowed for economic sanctions on Adjara to be lifted. An agreement was reached over disarmament of paramilitary forces in Adjara, release of political prisoners, joint control of the customs and port of Batumi, and providing conditions for free election campaigning in Adjara. However, Abashidze refused to disarm his paramilitary forces in April. On April 19-April 21, Batumi-based military commanders Major General Roman Dumbadze and Murad Tsintsadze officially announced their insubordination to central authorities' orders. On April 24, the Adjaran Senate approved Aslan Abashidze's proposal to impose a curfew in the region. However, according to the Georgian government dozens of soldiers of Abashidze's elite special purpose unit began to leave the region and pledged loyalty to the country's central authorities. Several Adjaran officials followed. Local opposition resumed the series of protests in Batumi, which were broken up severely on April 30.

At the end of April, Georgia launched its largest ever military exercises at the Kulevi training ground, near the Black Sea town of Poti. The large-scale war games, some 30 km away from Adjara's administrative border, was a show of strength, amid the confrontation between the central authorities and the Adjaran leader. In retaliation, the two key bridges connecting Adjara with the rest of Georgia over the Choloki River were blown up by Abashidze's forces to prevent an incursion into Adjara allegedly planned by the country's central authorities. On May 3, the U.S. Department of State condemned Abashidze's actions, accusing him of "trying to provoke a military crisis", and called him to disarm.

Adjara's revolution
On May 4, a large opposition protest rally was attacked by the local security forces in Batumi. Dozens of protesters were reportedly injured. However, the violent break up of peaceful demonstration proved a catalyst for even larger protests later on the same day. Tens of thousands from all Adjara headed to Batumi demanding Abashidze's resignation. Georgian Prime Minister Zurab Zhvania and Interior Minister Giorgi Baramidze crossed the Choloki River on May 5 and held talks with Adjaran Interior Minister Jemal Gogitidze. The latter agreed to withdraw his forces and paramilitary groups from the administrative border provided he would be guaranteed security. Abashidze's position became untenable when local protesters took control of the central part of the city of Batumi and Georgian special forces entered the region and started to disarm pro-Abashizde militants. Later on the same day, Secretary of the Russian Security Council Igor Ivanov arrived in Batumi. Abashidze stepped down after overnight talks with Ivanov and left for Moscow.

Saakashvili left for Adjara shortly after Aslan Abashidze's departure and met at dawn of May 6 with celebrating Adjarans in Batumi. "Aslan has fled, Adjara is free," President Saakashvili said on St George's Day and congratulated Georgians with what he described as "a second bloodless revolution" in Georgia. President Saakashvili also said that Abashidze's resignation "will pave the way for Georgia's prosperity" and that "it will be the beginning of Georgia's territorial integrity".

On May 7, direct presidential rule was imposed in Adjara and a 20-member Interim Council was set up to run the Autonomous Republic before snap local elections would be held in the region. Levan Varshalomidze was appointed as the Chairman of the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Adjara. Regional parliamentary elections were held on June 20. Victorious Adjara, a party backed by President Saakashvili won 28 seats out of 30 in the local legislative body. The remaining two seats were occupied by Saakashvili's former allies, members of the Republican Party. There were allegations of vote-rigging from the Republicans, after they won less than 15 percent of the vote. On July 20, the Adjaran Supreme Council approved Levan Varshalomidze as the Chairman of the Autonomous Republic's Government. He would hold the position until 2012.

Anders Samuelsen

Anders Samuelsen (born 1 August 1967 in Horsens, Denmark) is a Danish former politician who served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs from 2016 to 2019, member of the Folketing from 2007 to 2011 and as leader of the Liberal Alliance party from 2009 to 2019.

In 1993, Samuelsen got a master's degree in political science from Aarhus University. From 1994 to 1998, he was a consultant and section manager at the College for the Deaf, Castberggård

European Parliament
From 2004 until 2007, Samuelsen was a Member of the European Parliament sitting on the European Parliament's Committee on Budgets. As member of the European Parliament, he was a substitute for the Committee on Foreign Affairs, a member of the Delegation for relations with Iran and a substitute for the Delegation for relations with the People's Republic of China.

Career in Danish politics
Samuelsen is a former member of the Danish Social Liberal Party, and was a Member of the Bureau of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe. He left this party on 7 May 2007, became one of the three founding members of the Liberal Alliance and was elected to the Danish parliament for Liberal Alliance in the 2007 election.

By late 2016, Samuelsen threatened to bring down the government of Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen because of disagreements over tax cuts, immigration and welfare policies. In September 2016, he announced that his party was ready to file a motion of no confidence if Rasmussen failed to cut the top rate of income tax by 5 percentage points in the 2017 budget. In response, Rasmussen reshuffled his cabinet to have the Liberal Alliance join the government and take the leadership of six ministries.

Minister of Foreign Affairs
Under Samuelsen's leadership, the government won parliamentary approval in January 2017 to deploy up to 60 special forces to fight Islamic State in Syria as part of the U.S.-led Operation Inherent Resolve. The government later committed to sending an additional 55 soldiers to the NATO-led Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan; the decision was made to boost security efforts after a car bomber attacked a Danish convoy in September 2017.

Following his party's poor results at the 2019 general election, Samuelsen was publicly accused of nepotism by fellow party member Henrik Dahl. Due to Samuelsen failing at getting reelected, he resigned as party leader on 6 June 2019.

Beer in the Czech Republic

Beer has a long history in what is now the Czech Republic, with brewing taking place in Břevnov Monastery in 993. The city of Brno had the right to brew beer from the 12th century, while Plzeň and České Budějovice (Pilsen and Budweis in German), had breweries in the 13th century.

The most common Czech beers are pale lagers of the pilsner type, with a characteristic transparent golden colour, high foaminess, and lighter flavour. The Czech Republic has the highest beer consumption per capita in the world.

The largest Czech beer breweries are Pilsner Urquell (Plzeňský prazdroj, Gambrinus, Radegast, Master); Staropramen (Staropramen, Ostravar, Braník, Velvet); and Budweiser Budvar. Other top-selling brands include Krušovice, Starobrno, Březňák, Zlatopramen, Lobkowicz, Bernard, and Svijany.

History

The history of beer in the modern Czech Republic, historically Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia, goes back even before the Slavic migration in the 6th century, although the ingredients differed from those used today.

Hops have been grown, used in beer making, and exported since the twelfth century. Most towns had at least one brewery, with the most famous brewing cities in Bohemia being České Budějovice, Plzeň, and Prague. Other towns with breweries include Rakovník, Žatec, and Třeboň.

Beer in České Budějovice

České Budějovice has two main breweries: Budějovický měšťanský pivovar a.s. (Samson Budweiser Bier) and Budějovický Budvar n.p. (Budweiser Budvar).

The city was for centuries also known by its German name, Budweis. Brewing is recorded here since the 13th century. The modern Budějovický měšťanský pivovar was founded in 1795 as the Bürgerliches Brauhaus Budweis and is the oldest brewery in the world to use the term "budweiser" when referring to its beer. In 1895, the Budějovický Budvar brewery opened as an ethnically Czech alternative to the German-dominated Budějovický měšťanský pivovar.

In 1876, the US brewer Anheuser-Busch began making a beer that it also called Budweiser. This led to the Budweiser trademark dispute, with both companies claiming trademark rights to the name. In the European Union, Budějovický Budvar is recognized as a product with Protected Geographical Indication. Because of such disputes, Budvar is sold in the United States and Canada under the label Czechvar, and Anheuser-Busch sells its beer as Bud in most of the European Union.

Beer in Plzeň

Pilsner Urquell was the first pilsner-type beer in the world. In 1842, a brewery in Plzeň employed Josef Groll, a German brewer who was experienced in the Bavarian lager method of making beer. Beer in Plzeň at the time was not of very good quality, and they needed to compete. Groll developed a golden pilsner beer, the first light-coloured lager beer ever brewed. It became an immediate success and was exported all over the Austrian Empire. A special train of beer travelled from Plzeň to Vienna every morning. Exports of Czech beer reached Paris and the United States by 1874. Today, beers made at Plzeňský Prazdroj are Pilsner Urquell, Gambrinus, and Primus.

Beer in Prague
Much of the brewing history of the Czech capital is connected to the various monasteries there, with brewing first recorded at the Benedictine Břevnov Monastery in 993 AD. It is also recorded that in 1088 AD, King Vratislaus II granted a tithe of hops to the Canons of Vyšehrad Cathedral in order to brew beer.

Today, the Prague brewing scene is quite diverse, with Staropramen being the only industrial brewery. The oldest brewpub is U Fleků, which was founded in 1499 and has been brewing beer ever since. Most other breweries and brewpubs in Prague were established post-1989 and especially, post-2000.

Beer in Žatec
The tradition of brewing beer in Žatec spans over 700 years. Žatec Brewery has been owned by Carlsberg Group since 2014. Previously, it was wholly owned by Kordoni Holding Limited, based out of Nicosia, in Cyprus. Saaz hops, a "noble" variety of hops that accounted for more than $undefined 2/3$ of total 2009 hop production in the Czech Republic, owes its name to the German spelling of Žatec.

Beer in Brno and South Moravia
South Moravia is known for winemaking, and there are only few large breweries, namely Starobrno in Brno and Černá Hora, although since the 2000s, Akciový Pivovar Dalešice, Pegas, and Richard have been gaining popularity, despite smaller production.

Categories of beer

Most beer brewed in the Czech Republic is pilsner lager. Czech beers vary in colour from pale (světlé), through amber (polotmavé) and dark (tmavé), to black (černé), and in strength from 3–9% ABV. Top-fermented wheat beer (pšeničné pivo) is also available.

In the Czech Republic, it is still customary to label the strength of beer by the so-called degree scale (in Czech: stupňovitost). It is expressed as a weight percentage of sucrose and is used to indicate the percentage by weight of extract (sucrose) in a solution. So, 12° beer has 12% of these substances dissolved in water. A 10° beer is about 4% alcohol by volume, a 12° is about 5%, and a 16° is about 6.5%.

According to Czech law, categories of beer, regardless of colour or style, are:
 * lehké – a "light" beer brewed below 8° Balling and with less than 130kJ per 100ml
 * výčepní – a "draught" beer, though it can be bottled, brewed between 8° and 10°
 * ležák – a "lager" beer, brewed between 11° and 12.99°
 * speciál – a "special" beer, brewed above 13°

Originally, pilsner was a specific term for beers brewed in Plzeň (with Pilsner Urquell being registered as a trademark by the first brewery). The term has come to mean any pale, hoppy lager as a result of imitations of the original beer, especially in Germany, where the style is common.

Festivals

There are many beer festivals in the Czech Republic. One of them is Pilsner Fest, a two-day event held each year by the Pilsner Urquell Brewery in Plzeň.

The Czech Beer Festival in Prague is the biggest such event in Czechia.

Research institutions

 * Malting Institute in Brno
 * Research Institute of Brewing and Malting

Overview
With over forty industrial breweries and seventy small and medium-sized family breweries in Czechia, beer is one of the most important and well-known exports in the country. In 2016, approximately 3.68 million hectoliters of beer was exported within the European Union. As of 2023, Czechia was number five in the world's top beer exporters, with an export amount of 346 million dollars and 2.06 percent of the world's total beer exports. Within the European Union, the country was ranked as the eighth largest beer producer, with a total of 1.8 billion litres produced per annum.

Over fifty percent of beer in Czechia is exported to Slovakia, Germany, Poland, and Russia. Additionally, Czech exports to China doubled from 2014 to 2015, with 0.65 of 3.65 million hectoliters going to the Asian nation. In 2022, Slovakia imported $59 million (17.9%) worth of beer from Czechia, and Germany imported $56 million (17.1%).

There has been a steady decrease in beer consumption within Czechia, but breweries have noted an increase in their production due to rising international interest. Exports are especially important for Czech breweries, as consumption in Czechia has decreased by about five liters per person. The CEO of Staropramen, Petr Kovařík, speculates this is due to a smoking ban in the nation.

Economic impact
Total employment generated by the beer sector in the Czech Republic provided about 76,000 jobs in 2014. This number was a 4.6 percent decline from 2013, which may be explained by the increasing number of microbreweries and specialty beers, or more beer mixes and ciders being consumed. In 2013 and 2014, the total consumer spending on beer within the country was 2,563,000 million euros and 2,431,000 euros, respectively. Additionally, total brewing production increased 2013 to 2014, from 18.7 billion euros to 19.1 billion euros. This included all brewing companies, breweries, and microbreweries. In total, in 2016, Czech breweries produced a record amount of beer, at 20.48 million hectoliters. This was an increase from 2015 of 1.5 percent. Tourists consumed 750,000 hectoliters of beer in 2016, an increase from 2015 of 19 percent. In 2012, beer production accounted for 0.8 percent of the nominal gross domestic product, and the Czech government benefits from taxes paid on beer. Revenue from excise duties, VAT tax, and income tax in 2012 was about 28,506 million Czech korunas.

Plzeňský Prazdroj Group
Founded in 1842, the most popular brewing company in the Czech Republic has grown significantly since its creation. Currently, the Plzeňský Prazdroj group of breweries produces the following beers: Pilsner Urquell, Gambrinus, Velkopopovický Kozel, and Radegast. This group has three separate breweries, each of which produce their own specific beer.

In 2010, the Plzeňský Prazdroj group saw an increase in exports by five percent, especially in the German market, with 240,000 hectoliters, the Slovak market, with 114,500 hectolitres, and the British market, with 24,000 hectolitres. Additionally, in 2010, they began sales to the United Arab Emirates, Syria, South Korea, Vietnam, and Argentina.

The company credits their growing sales to Asian countries like Vietnam and Taiwan to the number of international visitors to Czechia. Taiwanese people were the third-largest nationality to visit the brewery each year, after Czechs and Germans, as of 2012.

In 2016, Plzeňský Prazdroj sold 11 million hectolitres of beer, with an increase in 1 million hectoliters, and exports grew by ten percent.

Additionally, it is speculated that the increase in beer exports and consumption is contributed to by the fact that its parent company, SABMiller, was sold to the Japanese Asahi Breweries. The company sought out to acquire more brewing companies, as beer consumption had been declining in Japan.

In 2017, over one third of Plzeňský Prazdroj's sales stemmed from exports, an increase of 8 percent from the previous year. Exports increased by 1.5 million hectoliters. In April, right after the sale to Ashai Breweries, Plzeňský Prazdroj began exports to China. Karel Kraus, manager of the Pilsner Urquell brand, credits the company's success to their increase in beer on tap, which is exported to more than thirty countries and represents twenty percent of the Pilsner Urquell beer industry.

Staropramen Brewery
Available in more than thirty-five countries worldwide, Pivovary Staropramen is the second largest beer producer in Czechia, with their main beers being the eponymous Staropramen, Braník, and Velvet. The company operates two breweries: Staropramen and Ostravar. In business since 1998, the company holds 15.6 percent of the domestic beer market. Staropramen is owned by Molson Coors.

In 2008, Staropramen exported 687,000 hectoliters of beer. By 2017, this had grown to 3.1 million hectoliters, an increase of six thousand hectoliters from the previous year.

Budějovický Budvar
Budějovický Budvar, not to be confused with the American company Budweiser, is one of the largest brewing companies in the Czech Republic; produces Budweiser, Budvar, Budweiser Budvar. Its main markets outside Czechia are Germany and Slovakia.

Talk:List of Irish newspapers

Does it make sense to divide the list by into Republic of Ireland/Northern Ireland? Most national newspapers are sold on both sides of the border, and many predate partition. The Irish Times is often criticised for being Dublin-centric, but when it does stray outside the capital it adopts an all-Ireland perspective. --Ryano 10:54, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Gitte Seeberg

Gitte Seeberg (born 25 June 1960 in Copenhagen) is a Danish politician, lawyer, and current secretary general of the Danish branch of the WWF. She was a member of the Danish Folketinget parliament for the Conservative People's Party and New Alliance, and has previously been a Member of the European Parliament.

Biography
Seeberg earned a Degree in law from Copenhagen University in 1986. She then worked as a commercial property agent and ran an independent legal practice.

In 1994, Seeberg was elected to represent the Conservative People's Party in the Danish Folketinget parliament. The trio of her, Lene Espersen, Henriette Kjær were seen as a breath of fresh air to the Conservatives, while political rivals nicknamed them "April, May, and June", after Daisy Duck's nieces in Disney comics. She held a number of speaker positions for the Conservatives, among them financial, foreign, and EU policy, and was Vice-Chairman of the parliamentary party group from 2001 to 2004.

In the 2004 European Parliament election, Seeberg was elected to represent the Conservative People's Party in the European Parliament. She was a Member of the Bureau of the European People's Party.

She left the Conservative People's Party on 7 May 2007, to be a co-founder of the party New Alliance, alongside Naser Khader and Anders Samuelsen. She returned to the Folketinget following the 2007 Danish parliamentary election in November 2007, as she helped New Alliance gain five parliamentary seats. On 29 January 2008 she left the party in protest against the party's status as a right-wing party, which conflicted with her own original desire to form a centrist party rejecting the influence of the Danish People's Party.

In July 2008, she announced that she would leave parliament as of September 2008 to become secretary general of the WWF.

Magpie River (Quebec)

The Magpie River (Rivière Magpie, Moteskikan Hipu, Mutehekau Hipu, Pmotewsekaw Sipo) is a 200 km river in the Côte-Nord region of Quebec which flows from the Labrador Plateau to empty into the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River east of Sept-Îles, Quebec. Since 2008 the Magpie Generating Station has been generating electricity. In 2021, the municipality of Minganie and the Innu Council of Ekuanitshit granted the Magpie River legal personhood and longterm protection from energy producers like Hydro-Quebec and Innergex Renewable Energy.

Location
The Magpie River is 200 km long. It rises near the border between Quebec and Labrador, flows south, and enters Magpie Bay on the Gulf of Saint Lawrence 60 km west of Havre-Saint-Pierre. Two of its tributaries are named Magpie West and Magpie East. The central section contains the long Lake Magpie The river is not wide, but fast and turbulent.

Its estuary is wide and forms a harbour for fishing boats. The village of Magpie is on the hillside around another small harbor on Magpie Bay 3 km west of the river mouth, and is one of the oldest towns on the Côte-Nord. The site was visited from 1849 by Gaspesians from Chaleur Bay who came to fish for cod and Atlantic salmon. The village boomed after the fishing companies Robin & Colas and Le Bouthillier establish facilities there around 1870.

Name
The river is named for the Canada jay (Perisoreus canadensis), which the English called "magpie". In the 19th century the local people pronounced in Magpointe. In 1870 Eugène-Étienne Taché's map showed the river as "R. Magpie or La Pie". In 1886 the surveyor Saint-Cyr called it Rivière à la Pie. It is nicknamed La Pie. According to the Abbé Victor-Alphonse Huard, it was also called Girard River after the three Girard brothers who settled in the area around 1849. The Innu have called it by various names, including Moteskikan Hipu, meaning "abrupt", "rocky" or "difficult" river, Mutehekau Hipu which translates as "river where the water passes between the square rocky cliffs" and Pmotewsekaw Sipo which means "river along which one walks among the shrubs".

Description
According to the Dictionnaire des rivières et lacs de la province de Québec (1914), "On the north coast of the Saint Lawrence, Saguenay County, at 380 miles from Quebec and six miles east of Ouapitagon. This watercourse is quite difficult to navigate, since it is broken by a series of falls and rapids from its mouth to a distance of about thirty four miles upstream. At this distance there is a very deep lake, 53 miles long. At 8 miles from the mouth there is a stand of spruce of good size and quality. There is excellent hydraulic power and a good harbour at the mouth. The Magpie has a great reputation for salmon and trout fishing. The Robin house has a post on the banks of this river, a major cod fishing establishment."

Basin
The Magpie River basin covers 7646 km2. It lies between the basins of the Jupitagon River to the west and the Saint-Jean River to the east. It is partly in the unorganized territories of Lac-Jérôme and Rivière-Nipissis, partly in the municipality of Rivière-Saint-Jean. According to the Dictionnaire des rivières et lacs de la province de Québec (1914), Lake Magpie is 34 mi from the mouth of the Magpie River. It is about 53 mi long and very deep. It is bordered on each side by capes and mountains. It is full of large pike. A map of the ecological regions of Quebec shows the river in sub-regions 6j-T and 6m-T of the east spruce/moss subdomain.

Hydroelectric production
In 2004, a plan by a private company to construct a small hydroelectric plant on the river generated protests by environmentalists, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The Bureau of Public Hearings on the Environment (BAPE) gave a favorable report on the project in 2004, but said there should be no further development on the river. In August 2005 the Charest government authorized construction of the dam by decree, which would eliminate some famous rapids. The Magpie Generating Station was commissioned in October 2007 and formally inaugurated on 20 June 2008. In its 2009–2013 strategic plan, Hydro-Québec was planning to build six hydroelectric dams on the Magpie. In September 2017, it reported surplus capacity and no plans for the river. Hydro-Quebec sold it in 2013 to Innergex Renewable Energy, which owns it in partnership with the Minganie municipality.

Recreational use
In May 2015 the Ministry of Forests, Wildlife and Parks of Quebec announced a sport fishing catch-and-release program for large salmon on sixteen of Quebec's 118 salmon rivers. These were the Mitis, Laval, Pigou, Bouleau, aux Rochers, Jupitagon, Magpie, Saint-Jean, Corneille, Piashti, Watshishou, Little Watshishou, Nabisipi, Aguanish and Natashquan rivers. The Quebec Atlantic Salmon Federation said that the measures did not go nearly far enough in protecting salmon for future generations. In view of the rapidly declining Atlantic salmon population catch-and-release should have been implemented on all rivers apart from northern Quebec.

The river is popular with white-water rafting, canoeing and kayaking enthusiasts. The lower section of the West Magpie provides 50 km of challenging conditions for class IV – V whitewater kayak and open boat paddlers. It flows into Lake Magpie 50 km north of where the Magpie leaves the lake. From there the river can be handled by most recreational kayakers. The first 15 km below the lake has exceptional fishing. The last 15 km of the river flows through huge scenic gorges and over waterfalls.

Legal personhood
In February 2021, the Magpie River became the first river in Canada to be granted legal personhood, after the local municipality of Minganie and the Innu Council of Ekuanitshit passed joint resolutions. The goal is longterm protection, as energy producers Hydro-Quebec and Innergex Renewable Energy have not ruled out development in the future. The river has nine distinct rights and can have legal guardians. The proponents wanted to prevent a develeopment like at Romaine River.
