Next Year- Thursday
December 2, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : With
the arrival of winter the crop year of 2004 is now behind us and there is no other
course of action than to consider the prospects for the coming year. Worthless crops
remain in the fields and worthless grain in storage while even more worthless cattle
continue to eat up abundant feed that even though cheap, will not yield and a net
return.

 Its
here again- Tuesday
November 30, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Alas
its time once more to shovel off the drive way, clear the sidewalk, make sure the
shovel is in the trunk of the car and put that extra set of keys in your pocket so
you can get in when you luck the keys inside with it running.

 Even though trains are few and far between

- A perception of the disorder in the New World Order: Canadian health care, the falling American dollar, universities’
independence
- Friday
November 26, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: Though Canada's health care system, the falling American dollar and the reliance
of Canadian universities upon money from private business seem to be completely different
topics Mr. deSantis is pointing out that this is our world and we have to accept
responsibility for thinking things through and we need to object when the appropriate
compromise between "need and greed" goes unchecked. This story needs some
careful consideration and you will have to refer to the references to grasp the complexities
of these inter-related issues.

- "I
must go down to the seas again"
- Thursday
November 25, 2004
by : Ken Jones and John Masefield
Nova Scotia :
When I studied John Masefield's "Sea Fever"
in high school it was quaint and the words interesting but it really meant nothing
until two days ago when Ken Jones sent me these amazing pictures of the Atlantic
off the coast of Nova Scotia taken in late October of this year.

Crib Death- Thursday
November 25, 2004
by : Bev Currie
Swift Current

death to infants in Canada. The remarkable story and its references suggest a really
simple and inexpensive preventative measure to a killer.

 How
anti-American is she, really?- Tuesday
November 23, 2004
by : Marjaleena Repo
Saskatoon : Though
the news and her former party leader have tried to paint this Missassauga member
of parliament as a loud mouth who does not think through what she is saying, this
is perhaps a biased opinion, as she may well be telling people what they don't want
to hear.

- Three and three-quarter more years, Three and three-quarter
more years, Three and three-quarter more years
- Tuesday
November 23, 2004
By : Timothy W. Shire & Edwin Wallace
Tisdale : Ralph
Klein won again to no surprise to anyone. He has a majority of 3:1 of his opposition
but Alberta papers consider his victory a loss. Go figure. What is even more interesting
as one of Canada's most economically important provinces, the provincial election
was not reported in any detail in most Eastern Canadian newspapers.
