No Fault (Tort Reform) Auto Insurance in Canada: Hypocritical regulations to appease the Free Market
Thursday
November 6, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: Ontario and Alberta have private insurance, astronomical rates and governments determined to reduce coverage to protect the motorist from high rates and the insurance companies from their own investment stupidity, so much for the natural consequences of the free market.

Tim's Tip of the Day

My way weekday lunch buffet, outstanding quality, now ranks as the best lunch in Tisdale.

Kevin's find of the day

Web-site porn atttracts women by the millions. This Cleveland story by Mark O'Keefe explains that contrary to the widely accepted theory that pornography is a "men's only" thing the web appears to have changed this belief.

Ensign Notes

Did some retail marketing this morning only to discover that in most cases product pricing at the big box stores makes the average VAR unable to compete as most retail prices in the major chains is about the same prices as wholesale when shipping and money handling is included.


St. Annes des Chenes
Wednesday
November 5, 2003
by: Lauren McCallum
St. Annes des Chenes: A historical community in Southeastern Manitoba, one of the first European settlements on the Western prairies and the area from which Saskatchewan's Francophone communities evolved. This story tells us about the historical church in the small rural community now badly in need of restoration in an effort to preserve the history of a significant contributor to the history of Western Canada.

Wednesday
November 5, 2003

Washington, D.C.: The recent accusations that Rap performer "P" Diddy is using a 368 employee sweatshop in Choloma Honduras to produce his signature clothing. This brings the issue of corporations exploiting with impunity the poor of the world for manufacturing.

The way we were
Tuesday
November 4, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: I was walking through a store when I spotted that picture, just a picture of a city with its skyscrapers then I realised when it was taken and from where it was taken and what has happened since that moment in time.

Mr. Hermanson stuck to his party line
Tuesday
November 4, 2003
by: Stu Innes
Regina: This is a rebuttal to the story posted last week dealing with the leaders Televised debate. We regret that a second message was received but can not be posted as it was lost in an accident with Email.

Michel Chossudovsky discerns the trees from the forest: The state is financing its own indebtedness
Tuessday
November 4, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: A loop develops whereby the financial industry and industry itself begins to hold the debt of the government and so holds the governmental structures accountable to their interests. This twist in democracy explains the politicians inclination to serve business rather than voters.

The Greenwater report
Monday
November 3, 2003
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park: A trip to Saskatoon and Prince Albert and a visit to the craft fair in Archerwill as winter comes to the Park.

Freestar
Thursday
October 30, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Naicam: Ford sets out to match and exceed the imports and has redesigned the Windstar. The changes are so significant that it warranted a name change.

The politics of deception and manipulation in changing economic structures: Saskatchewan politics, Professor Shadia Drury and the Bush's Straussians
Thursday
October 30, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: A University of Saskatchewan Professor has spotted the problems that stem from political leaders assuming a role as authoritarian know it alls and what happens when they misslead their followers. This story has some fascinating ramifications and you owe it to yourself to find out about Leo Strauss and Professor Drury.

Turning the page
Thursday
October 30, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The moment in time that sees one season become another is not always clean as we have some years where it is hard to tell what season it is. This year the changes have been dramatic, no question about when fall arrived and just as clearly this weekend and the week to come we are seeing winter line up and walk its way across this part of the country.

When in doubt . . .
Wednesday
October 29, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: So what was all that unseemly behaviour about? Some explanation of what was really happening and the winners and losers.

Big Tents, big Hopes, Big Deal?
Wednesday
October 29, 2003
by: Ron Thornton
Edmonton: Though many want to see a united conservative movement in Canada that can provide an alternative to the Liberal party the reality is hopelessly confusing as Canada's historical and political structure is what it is and Canada is not the sum of its parts but the sum of Quebec and Ontario.
