How to edit Debian apt-get sources file?

[Walter Dnes]

  I obviously have some problems.  First is a complaint about duplicate
sources...

[13:04:14][/var/lib/iptables] apt-get upgrade
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0  not upgraded.
W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://non-us.debian.org
stable/non-US/main Packages
(/var/lib/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_main_binary-i386_Packages)
W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://non-us.debian.org
stable/non-US/contrib Packages
(/var/lib/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_contrib_binary-i386_Packages)
W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://non-us.debian.org
stable/non-US/non-free
Packages
(/var/lib/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_non-free_binary-i386_Packages)
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

  Second, I can't connect to ftp://mirror.direct.ca so I may as well
drop them as a source.

Err ftp://mirror.direct.ca stable/main Packages
  Could not connect to mirror.direct.ca:21 (207.136.80.131), connection timed out

  Here is my sources.list (quoted to prevent wrapping).  Any ideas ?
