MONTREAL GAZETTE - Syrian opposition moving ahead with plans to set up interim government in rebel-held areas, Mar 17, 2013

 "BEIRUT - Syria's main opposition group is launching its most serious attempt yet to form a rival government to President Bashar Assad's regime, convening in Turkey on Monday to choose an interim prime minister for areas the rebels control. Twelve candidates are running, including economists, businessmen and a former Syrian Cabinet minister. Some warn setting up such a government could close the door to negotiating an end to Syria's civil war and instead harden the battle lines even more."
