- Plymouth
Fury, 1958
- Wednesday, July 23, 2003
by: R. W. Shire and Timothy Shire
What kind of world must it have been for there to have been a time when someone would
design a car that looked like this one. Definitely makes one think about the exuburance
and enthusiasm of the 1950s.

- The gospel of fairer taxes in accordance
with the preachers: Mr. Robinson and Friar Thomas d'Aquino
- Wednesday, July 23, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
The motivation behind the policies advocated by some of the "experts" needs
to be questioned. Mario suggests that the way of thinking may even be a problem as
the problem may not even be the problem.

- Monday, July 21, 2003

the remarkable beauty and outstanding outdoor setting that makes this one of the
most attractive parks in the province.

- Memo to the Premiers: No
more tax collectors … thanks, but no thanks
- Monday, July 21, 2003
by: Walter Robinson
At the recent premier's conference in Charlottetown the idea of the provinces going
it alone to collect taxes was once more trotted out to show their displeasure with
Ottawa. Walter Robinson points out that it is not a sound idea and has no real merit.

matter of public or private services: SHIN and SAIC, Romanow and Robinson
- Monday, July 21, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Guilt by association, at least motivation by association seems to be the underlying
theme as Mario reports on the cozy association Saskatchewan's government has had
with one of the world's leading arms dealers and developers.

Join us for a walk of about an hour and twenty minutes through forest, past some

are not compatible with this medium.

- The Convertible
syndrome
- Thursday, July 17, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
In a country where there are years when the weather is not good enough to find a
day to put the top down the idea of a topless car is like forbidden candy or like
winning the lottery dreams.

- Were "consequences"
meaningful?
- Thursday, July 17, 2003
by: Joe Hueglin
A test for the Youth Criminal Justice Act came last week in St. Caatherines,
Ontario and things do not look promising. Joe wonders what message the judge's decision
on a drug dealer will have on the way young people regard and respect the laws and
conventions of Canadian society.

- Bush's Slippery
Slope: Ending with impeachment?
- Thursday, July 17, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Up until now there have been complaints and accusations but the bald face lie in
the State of the Union address has changed the tone of concern as Americans are beginning
to realise that maybe something should be done about the warrior president who lacks
fiscal responsibility.

- Canadian Alliance slipping in Alberta
- Thursday, July 17, 2003
by: Jason Inness
The Canadian Alliance is perhaps the least credible political party since the Rhino
party yet it is the official opposition and enjoyed considerable support in Alberta,
Saskatchewan and a few other places. Though some of us consider their stone age mentality
as benign and sometimes cute, they continue to demonstrate that advanced mathematics
involves borrowing when subtracting and fractions are for college folks.
