 We have found
the enemy and it is the United States: Americans attack the Chinese
weapon of undervalued Yuan- Friday
October 10, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: The intention by United States and Israel to push for a regime change in
Syria is now taking shape and at the same time the economic forces are festering
in the United States as that country has identified the Chinese Yuan as the culprit
that is hurting its self abused trade deficit world position. This story gives you
the facts and the sources that will allow you to much more fully understand the economic
basis for this problem.

 Pilatus PC-12/45- Thursday
October 9, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: A large charter aircraft from Fort Lauderdale Florida was
parked at Tisdale airport yesterday. This nine passenger Swiss made, 1997 single
engine turbo prop is becoming extremely popular as a regional commuter and executive
aircraft. Its single engine lowers maintenance costs and gives this aircraft a remarkable
range and load carrying capability.

Tim's Tip
of the Day
|
| One plain burger in both value and food value from the Tisdale RECPLex canteen is
better than two A&W teenburgers. Flavour in the meat and lower sugar in the bun
make the RECPLex burger a winner. |

 Martin’s gas tax plan borrows
“liberally” but now “wholly” (too bad) from Canadian Taxpayers Federation Municipal
Roadway Trust- Thursday
October 9, 2003
by: Walter Robinson
Ottawa: The new deal that future prime minister Paul Martin is talking about is a
diluted adaptation of the Canadian Taxpayer Federation's propose set forth many years
ago as Mr. Martin and his government have continued to take taxes in the name of
road improvements and have used that money for general revenue.

 American Trade Deficit and Jobs Losses:
Econometric correlation to the undervalued Chinese currency 'yuan/renminbi'- Wednesday
October 8, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin / The Great Wall near Bejing: Economists and
political commentary on television love to use number to support their arguments
and points of view. Ultimately, this practice is truly misleading and ignores so
many contribution factors which, had they been considered, would have lead to quite
different conclusions. The United States is in financial trouble and blames
China for its woes when it is the cause of its own problems. This story explains
the missing parts that CNN's Lou Dobbs should have been able to explain, but
could not. As always, Mr. deSantis has provided you with some amazing references
that deal with this issue and what it means for the world economy.

 Trees for a Golden Age- Tuesday
October 7, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire

this was an historic event.

 China's economic
experience: social tension, controlled privatization and sustained
economic growth- Tuesday
October 7, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: We are so often told that there is only one
way to success and that's the American way. This story and the referenced material
it relies upon suggests that quite the contrary is true. There are many ways for
a country huge or tiny to find success in its own way unique to its culture and traditions.

October 7, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire

loyal refugees.

October 7, 2003
by: David MacLean
Regina: The Saskatchewan Party has backed off from its
position of seeking tax cuts in Saskatchewan. David MacLean of the Canadian Taxpayers
Federations considers this a mistake and wants taxes reduced for business and individuals.

 The Greenwater Report- Monday
October 6, 2003
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park: Lots of people out at the
park this past weekend and the Crawfords are back from a trip into Southern, dry

with this report.

 Isabel- Monday
October 6, 2003
Somewhere in the Atlantic: Every so often a picture gets sent from friend to friend
so that after a short while there is no way of knowing were it came from. Ken Styan
got this image and passed it along and even though we have no way of crediting the
photographer it seems appropriate that you have a chance to see this remarkable scene.

 Our Tree- Sunday
October 5, 2003
by: Timothy W, Shire
Tisdale: This huge poplar (Aspen) tree by our back door
is an enormous show off and rarely a day goes by that it does not some how impose
itself on the affairs of or lives. Now it has turned to gold and by Thanksgiving
will be nude.

 Swift Current
Civic Election and the Casino- Sunday
October 5, 2003
by: Edwin Wallace
Swift Current: The spread of First Nation run casinos
in Saskatchewan has been the promised magic pill to solve economic woes as one city
or community after another things they are going to become the next great Las Vegas.
This "iffy" question is before the folks in Swift Current and it is interesting
to hear what Edwin Wallace has to say about it as he feels the business community
has lined as cheerleaders to back a questionable and definitely not proven idea.
