Tim's Tip of the Day

Sunscreen and insect repellant are a must for outdoor activity but for simplicity, put up with the discomfort and wear long sleeved shirts and a hat. For unknown reasons few of us ever put sunscreen on often enough or thoroughly enough for it to be any good and avoid insect bites, your health depends on it.

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.Will be posting today, then off on another camping trip. Today we hear more about same sex marriage and some conservatives voice their concerns about Stephen Harper.


No means no!, Harper's cynical approach, and the Doctrine enunciated
Thursday, June 19, 2003
by: Dale Swirsky, Thomas Curran and Joe Hueglin
Unless you are an Alberta separatist few Canadians have much love for the sardonic Stephen Harper but this week he seems to have truly moved over the line and drawn a good deal of displeasure from members of the Progressive Conservative Party. Though each of these stories have a different direction to the condemnation we can see that Harper has ruffled some feathers and combined the three give a good picture of why.

The SIGMA ANALYTICS poll doesn't absolve the bigoted Saskatoon police
Thursday, June 19, 2003

Tunnel Vision
Thursday, June 19, 2003
by: Sherri Northcott
We are very fortunate to be able to bring you this story. Fear and confusion seem to come from things we know nothing about and in this story we have a first hand explanation as to why the courts have made the decisions that have about same sex marriage. Time to widen our view.

Bush&Co's Larger Right Wing Agenda
Thursday, June 19, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
This is a warning, you can choose to ignore the growing body of imperical evidence that points toward what the United States and its leadership are undertaking. But ignore it or not Mario deSantis is backing up his claims in this story with excellent sources who like he are disturbed at what they have discovered.

The scientific governmental approach to public policies and the Iraq war: Continuous Statistical Polling
Wednesday, June 18, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
If you ask a question it appears that the process in itself will develop an opinion that matches the views of the questioner. By polling continously and acting upon the polling results ignorance and misimformation become the means of government.

Amateur built kit aircraft are a standard feature of the present general aviation world and the two place composite speed demon that we see here performs well beyond any commerically mass produced aircraft.

by: Gerald Crawford
On a bus tour this week as we see some of the highlights of Gerald's trip up to Flin Flon.

Ontario Courts Okay Homosexual Marriage
Tuesday, June 17, 2003
by: Ron Thornton
Canadians of all parts of the country are a bit purturbed at the recent Ontario Court ruling and may even be more so with the Cabinet decision today to desolve the exclusive heteerosexual meaning of the term "marriage."

Thursday, June 12, 2003

Making Reality out of the Fiction of the Free Market
Thursday, June 12, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
The political predisposition of so many leaders both at home and around the world is determining governmental action rather than basing administration on the needs of the real world.

Liberals goad regionalism
Thursday, June12, 2003
by: Richard P. Neumann
Political power in Canada flows from the regional issues that produce separatist parties like the Bloc and the Canadian Alliance. But there is a solution.

Satisfying all save the extremes.
Thursday, June 12, 2003
by: Joe Hueglin
The issue of same sex marriage has been steaming away for five years. Parliament and the courts are at odds and its time to look for a way out of this rather than rehash the same tired proclaimations.
