The Greenwater report
Monday
March 31, 2008
by: Gerald Crawford
Saskatoon: This week's report has some pictures of a garden show in Saskatoon and winter recreation at the park. The most important part of this week's report is Gerald's report on the problems with medical service even more compounded by interprovincial hospital services. This sort of difficulty needs to be considered very carefully especially in the light of concerns about poor communications between Medicine Hat and Calgary with the resulting death of a Leader man.
