 Will Conservatives
Listen This Time, Or Repeat Past Mistakes?- Wednesday
April 7, 2004
by : Ron Thornton
Edmonton : One of the major critisisms of the former
Canadian Alliance Party was that it failed to pay attention to what the major
of Canadians were saying about government policy. Now the newly reorganised party,
the Conservative Party must look at what it did in the past and discover why
most voters east of Winnipeg simply did not agree with party platform.

Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 It has been a hundred full years since powered flight began. Yet for the
vast majority of humans all over the planet it might as well be 500 years in the
future. The progress of mankind is not what can be achieved by few but what can be
achieved by all. |
|
Kevin's find of the day
|
 The latest fashion must-have:
eyeball jewellery (PDF) Reuters reports that for 500 Euros you can
have jewellery implanted into your eyeball. |

 The search for
the truth surrounding 9-11 continues- Friday
April 2, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : This web site has expressed extreme concern
over the Government of the United States and its behaviour leading up to and after
the attack on September 11, 2001. Most of the truth is buried in attempts to blind
the voters of that country from what happened and it has taken a long time for a
commission to be established to even look into the problem. This story and its extensive
references gives you a chance to sort some of these issues out for yourself.

March 31, 2004
