RBC insurance is no insurance at all
Monday
April 12, 2004
Contributor's name withheld
On February 29, 2004 we posted a story about a college student being caught by RBC's hard sell disability insurance programme where he paid for coverage he did not want and could not collect on. This story tells of a person who took the insurance and his wife was diagnosed with cancer and the company said that it was a pre-existing condition and refuses to consider claims.

Tim's Tip of the Day

We each constantly redefine ourselves by what we do, our work, our interests, our hobbies, our likes and dislikes are part of a dynamic work in progress as we tell ourselves who and what we are. This is why cultural and ethnic identies as well as family heritage plays such an important role in shaping our image of ourselves and the expectations we have in life.

Kevin's find of the day

OS X Trojan Horse is a Nag (PDF) Leander Kahney reports in Wired that the Macintosh operating system which has long been free of the constant disruption by e-mail worms and virus has become a large enough factor in the operational world and is now the target of some benign attachments. The worry is that this first one is just a test run for something far more troubling. This first "Trojan Horse" is embedded in an MP3 piece of music.

Ensign Notes

We had company over the Easter weekend and now its back to work as we did not post Saturday or Sunday.

.Happenings In Tisdale:


April snow showers
Monday
April 12, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : some pictures from Friday of tower cumulus and a tiny bit of snow that was left behind.

"for God so loved the world he gave his only begotten son . . "
Friday
April 9, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire and illustrated by Dawn LaRochelle
Tisdale : On Good Friday we restate the need to recall what the day is set aside for and what this one man's life did to affect so much change in the world since his death.

Wet Winnipeg
Friday
April 9, 2004
by : Timothy and Cassandra Shire
Winnipeg : Though the Red River is at the top of its banks, for the most part it is staying were it belongs. This story includes a QuickTime VR (1.5MB).

Disagree with Police article
Friday
April 9, 2004
by : Tina LaCroix
The accusations made in the April 7, 2004 World Health Day: Road Safety is no accident story are unfair and wrongly accuse the police of their use of lethal weapons.

The values brought to you by privatisation: Corrupt health care in Saskatoon and corrupt Canadian politicians
Friday
April 9, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : The real conflict of our age is an ancient one as the struggle continues between selfishness and selflessness. The Saskatoon Emergency room doctor who warns of the dangers in his ER get fired and politics continues to be about power and not about the well being of people.

Taking a chance
Friday
April 9, 2004
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Its hard to be a criminal any more as government has taken over the business and just just can't get respect.

Wednesday
April 7, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Safety check at the Tisdale Mall, radar trap at the north end of town and wall to wall police with over twenty uniforms and mustaches in Tisdale.

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.

Spring run-off
Tuesday
April 6, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Weekes & Tisdale : After several years of not enough snow or moisture of any kind we have a real run off this year and here are some pictures of the way things are going out in the Weekes area on Saturday and today in Tisdale.

The Mighty Wascana
Tuesday
April 6, 2004
by : R. W. Shire
Regina : The excavation that worked around the clock all winter has concluded as contractors now put on the finishing touches around the forming lake. One of these additions will be a cycle trail that will let you ride almost the width of the city along the lake. Rere are twenty pictures that tell the story of the way it has shaped up.

The Greenwater Report
Tuesday
April 6, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : So they have spring at the park and its time for a few special fishing stories. Gerald spotted a lynx and a few announcements to keep us all informed.

Tanks for the memories
Tuesday
April 6, 2004

Tisdale Rodeo and Trade Show ready
Friday
April 2, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Frantic preparation in the trade show area today at mid day as the cowboys toss ropes and everyone is ready for show time.

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.

A New Garbage Truck in Tisdale
Friday
April 2, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Hardly a front page story but important all the same. For several centuries it seems the same old and pretty battered truck has made the rounds collecting domestic garbage in Tisdale and today it has been replaced.
