Niagara Falls : The Prime Minister visited Camp Gagetown in New Brunswick, the first prime minister ever to visit this army base and in his speech last Wednesday he made a mistake, his printed speech had the word Normandy in it twice but twice he said Norway.

Nipawin : One of America's most respected journalists has said in his book what Mario deSantis has been saying in this web site since 9-11 and now the added feature of the Saudi's manipulating fuel prices. I guess that's what friends are for.
