Tisdale Calendar
of Events

Send in the clowns
Tuesday
August 3, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: We have to give some thought as to what it is to be happy. Can it be lost, or found, is it somehow hidden from some or the gift of others?
GPS spraying
Thursday
July 22, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : The computer has been humming away under the hood of your car since 1978, many cars are fitted with satellite navigation systems and now its time for agriculture to move into the electronic age. No need for flagmen or markers, the pilot just checks his heads up display.
Until proven guilty
Thursday
July 22, 2004
by : Edwin Wallace
Brendaren Farms : No matter how revolting a crime may be we are a society that has a tradition of rule by law and every person, citizen or not, is protected under the charter and by common law to due process and is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Big mouth
Wednesday
July 21, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : He is only a little more than two months old but he is already big and as curious as any two year old child. He is an orphan Raven and has adopted a human to care for him as he grows and develops.
Moving
Wednesday
July 21, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Industry is a part of Tisdale and we have some very modest changes in progress as a grain handling facility is relocated.
Splash Park
Wednesday
July 21, 2004
by : Timothy W. shire

The Greenwater Report
Tuesday
July 20, 2004
by: Gerald Crawford

John Deere Fields
Monday
July 19, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Mile after mile of gold Canola flowering fields against a green background replicate the tractor manufacturer's colour scheme but suggest a very positive prospect for this crop year.
I fell in love with the jewel of the empire
Thursday
July 15, 2004
by : Jillian Gies
Goan, India :This is a remarkable photo essay of a people on the other side of the world. JIllian Gies' images take us with her on her visit to India.
The Election Result Was Predicted Five Years Ago
Thursday
July 15, 2004
by : Ron Thornton
Edmonton : The 2004 election results came as no surprise to Ron Thornton as he had predicted this sort of results five years earlier. The math just doesn't work with the problem because it is not a mathematical problem. There are basic differences between the former Progressive Conservatives and the Reformers who more recently called themselves Canadian Alliance.
Matthew and Dawn
Wednesday
July 14, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Gravelbourg : Saturday, July 10 was a truly remarkable day as Matthew Shire and Dawn LaRochelle became Mr. and Mrs. Shire in the magnificient Gravelbourg cathedral.
The Greenwater report
Wednesday
July 14, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : The Crawfords have been out and about some more visiting Foam Lake, Kelliher, Raymore and Nokomis. This week there is a review of the Nokomis Museum and an account of sword fights by the beach.
It was all avoidable
Wednesday
July 14, 2004
by : Kevin McIntyre
Arborfield : It seems that we are so often inclined to describe an incident as an accident when it just may be that a sequence of circumstances and conditions are bound to produce a negative result. In this story our writer does not have first hand infromation on this specific event but as a former farm boy and shareholder in a local dehydration plant his is familiar with the equipment and procedures that cost a young man his life.
A show of force
Tuesday
July 13, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale to Gravelbourg and back : While we did not get the thumping the folks in Alberta had to endure we certainly had the skies that told of immense power and this slide show (2MB) samples the sky scenes from last Thursday until this morning.
Langley Canada Day
Thursday
July 8, 2004
by : Brian Marlatt
White Rock B.C. : Langley is home to Canadian Museum of Flight and to celebrate Canada Day they showed off some of their collection and Brian Marlatt was there to capture the scene. This story includes a 2MB QuickTime slide show.
Already the sleaze starts leaking out
Thursday
July 8, 2004
by : Rebecca Gingrich
Princeton, Ontario : The Liberal government has been and will continue to be the government and old habits are hard to break. $3000 a month is what you have to get by on if you have a ministeral or assistant job.
Tisdale, a town under construction
Wednesday
July 7, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Twenty-eight known new housing units are either completed or scheduled for this summer and with other sold empty lots the total is expected to exceed thirty.
The Answer Is In the Senate, But No One In The East Is Asking The Question
Wednesday
July 7, 2004
by : Ron thornton
Edmonton : Many of the age old solutions that have been put forward to produce some equity and fairness in the way Canada is governed include such things as free votes in parliament and fixed election dates. Mr. Thornton points out that an elected land representative Senate would do the trick.
House Number 3
Wednesday
July 7, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Basement in and the main floor framed as this house is well underway a block west of the cenotaph park.
