Tim's Tip
of the Day
|
| Do not under estimate the serious nature of that single case of one case of mad cow
disease. We were assured that our system would do its part to protect Canadians and
the Canadian cattle industry. It is clear now that there must have been some problem
to cause the death of more than 700 cows now and still not smoking gun to identify
where the cow came from or if the feed system is responsible. |

Ensign Notes
|
| Summer holidays: That's right, 2003 is the first year since 1991 that we have had
a chance to take a holiday. During June, July and the first two weeks of August we
will have some intermittant days when Ensign will not post. Our plan is to do some
tripping and camping here in Saskatchewan. |

after the expected war. As in other stories like this we present you with a summary
of the story with the details in the references.

 Wascana Geese- Tuesday, June 3, 2003
by: Ole Loberg
We all know that Canada geese are social beings and we have observed how they live
in pairs and feed alternately so one feeds the other stands guard, now we discover
that their ability to work together far exceeds what one would expect of an animal
with the brain the size of a walnut.
