 Marriage, be it
same sex, same family, same harem- Monday
December 1, 2003
by: Ron Thornton
Edmonton: The same day that a Saskatoon Member of Parliament
was embarrassing himself and his party over this issue, an Edmonton reporter wanted
to find out what Liberal Member of Parliament really thought about it and she reported
what he said. Our man in Edmonton, Ron Thornton took exception to her comments.
Might be a good idea to read the references first then this story.

 The Greenwater Report- Monday
December 1, 2003
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park: Blowing snow, a wolf, an
angel food cake, a hiding fawn and Foam Lake kids make up some of this week's report.

 The Conservative Party of
Canada: An 'evolution' of the Tory Party? ... or Reform's latest guise?- Monday
December 1, 2003
by: Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls: It is clear now that Alliance members have swamped the Progressive
Conservative Party's process to vote on a merger. As with so many things that seem
attractive when you want them, once you get them, is this really a workable situation
or just yet another name change.

 Leather goods
shop opens in the Tisdale Mall- Friday
November 28. 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Moe Jomha has opened his leather shop in the
Tisdale Mall Thursday. Leather jackets, wallets and hand bags along with a whole
range of sweat shirts. A very nice addition to the Tisdale market place.

 Preempting Further Bush's Capitalism Against
Humanity: Throwing Out of Office President Bush- Friday
November 28, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: The family that capitalises . . . These Texans have a grip not only on their
country but are gravely involved in attempting to do serious damage to the world.
|

 What are the limits?- Thursday
November 27, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: As we survey last night's setting sun the question
of limitations has to be addressed. Is the sky really the limit, of course we know
it is not, so we have to be willing to talk about the limits and that means talking
about priorities. Regina is closing three public libraries and an art gallery, the
libraries all in economically depressed areas. A year ago we talked about on this
site and everywhere else, the limits of public medicare, a year has gone by and little
has changed. So as we gaze at the sky we have to talk about limits.

 Suga Bz- Thursday
November 27, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: A pair of Tisdale teenagers have their own
store for the Christmas shopping season in the Tisdale Mall. Cool stuff from cool
storekeepers.

 Digital Video
Editing- Thursday
November 27, 2003
by: Kevin McIntyre
Carrot River: Lots of people buy video camcorders then
after a few attempts they find a home in a closet someplace waiting for a future
garage sale. Kevin tells us how to take a digital camcorder and a computer and put
together something that can be watched. Video is undigestible unless you edit it
in some fashion and here is how.

 The Free Market
according to president Bush and his brother Neil
Short term gains and long term pains- Thursday
November 27, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: This story and its references is hinting at
a disturbing problem with human nature. It seems that like leopards humans are pretty
much the way they are if raised in a specific mindset and culture there is little
chance of them being able to alter their perception and means of dealing with the
world.

 Tisdale is getting
into the mood- Wednesday
November 26, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The trees downtown are lit and trimmed while
out at the mall tables are being set up for the craft displays and organisations
who will be participating in Midnight Madness.

 Tisdale downtown gets ready
for the season- Tuesday
November 25, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: With winter here and the end of November approaching the downtown merchants
have stepped outside their stores to place Christmas trees along the street.

 "FTAA-Lite"
Reflects Long-Term Economic Failure- Tuesday
November 25, 2003
by: Mark Weisbrot
Washington: The Ministers meeting in Miami to iron out
trade talks moving toward an America's free trade deal seems to have fizzled. This
story by this American economist gives us a chance to think over what was going on
and why it failed. The references with this story give you a chance to get up to
speed on this topic.

 The ingredients of American Bloody Capitalism:
GREED, HYPOCRISY, WARS Will the Carlyle Group salvage Lord Black's Hollinger?- Tuesday
November 25, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: The arms financiers and weapons dealer company the Carlyle Group is not
a matter of fiction but a real corporation and this story shows you who is in that
company. Their latest project is to sort out one of their fellows, Lord Black and
his Hollinger company.

 The Greenwater Report- Monday
November 24, 2003
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park: Hunters are as plentiful
as the wildlife this time of the year as Gerald goes down to Foam Lake for a visit
and tells us about things there and in Kelvington.
|

 The classic- Monday
November 24, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Recreation takes many forms but the classic experience for every western
Canadian is skating and playing hockey on an outdoor rink. Most children learn to
skate on such facilities and for most of us it is the place where we will go for
our last trip around the ice.

 Stories from Iraq- Monday
November 24, 2003
by: Christian Peacemaker Teams
Iraq: Richard Phillips who is involved with providing food aid around the
world from his office in Winnipeg passed on these on the scene stories by a group
of people who are in Iraq hoping to provide some help to its embattled people. We
are bringing you these stories because of the remarkable similarities of these events
and the way things began in Vietnam in the early sixties.

 This will be a winter of discontent
- Sunday
November 23, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Bjorkdale: No crystal ball
required as we watch helplessly as the United States enters the Vietnam style conflict
in Iraq from which no success is possible. These pictures were taken Saturday evening
near Bjorkdale as the sun dropped away from a cloudless cold winter sky.

 Bush's advance
of freedom: The Soul of American Capitalism- Sunday
November 23, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: This story just gives you a hint of the very disturbing political issue
that is endangering our little planet. Mr. deSantis has provided you with an outstanding
list of references that go far beyond supporting the points he makes but gives you
an opportunity to research the serious problem that faces mankind.
