Tim's Tip
of the Day
|
| Don't let planning and process results and substance. We some times lose sight of
a goal when the means to obtaining that goal becomes an obsession. |

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.Story today and tomorrow only as we
have to be away for a little while but check out the site we hope to post as often
as possible, destinations include: Battoch & Prince Albert(tomorrow), Regina
Thursday, Swift Current, Hazlet, then Crooked Lake for July 1 and then to Winnipeg. |

by: Walter Robinson
Good for all Canadians, fair and reasonable the best thing that could be done for
the Canadian tax payer is increase the person exemption on Income tax.

 The Privatization of the Rule of Law:
The Immunity Legislations for tycoon Berlusconi and hegemonic America- Monday, June 23, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
It is disturbing indeed to find out that the Italian Premier merely passes a law
to prevent his conviction of corruption but even more disturbing that the United
States is forcing nations around the world to sign agreements exempting Americans
from War Crimes. Looks like Hitler and Musolini would have been better off to have
had better lawyers.

 "Psst, Need
a new ship for your fleet?"- Monday, June 23, 2003
by: Rebecca Gingrich
Being a wealthy ship owner and claiming that it is in a "blind trust" is
just not going to work. Paul Martin may become the leader of the Liberal Party because
he has bought and paid for its membership but Canadian voters are unlikely to elect
someone who does his banking off shore and has his corporate hand out for corporate
welfare.

 Space Ship clouds- Sunday, June 22, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
"A bit breezing" is how most Saskatchewan people would have described the
gale force winds that dashed across the province Thursday.

 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
by: Mario deSantis
Yesterday Mario told us how polls were being used to create, rather than measure
public opinion, today he gives us an example of this process at work in Saskatoon.

 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.

by: Timothy W. Shire
Sixty years of anything is a major achievement but to continue to grow and support
a community the Tisdale Credit Union deserves the respect it receives from
its community.

framework- Wednesday, June 18, 2003
by: Joe Hueglin
Read this article carefully as we are proud to be able to bring to you such an exceptional
compromise well thought out method of dealing with this emotional issue. Most importantly
Mr. Hueglin recognises the vital need for a legal framework be established to guarentee
the rights of couples.

 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.

 Glasair:
SH-2F- Tuesday, June 17, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
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: 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
