October 8, 2004

without their coach to guide them so early in the new season but the third period
was theirs and despite five minutes of overtime the game ended in a three three tie.
|

October 7, 2004

good)

 Kerry’s vision of ‘change
position’ and Bush’s vision of ‘certainty’- Wednesday
October 6, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: Television commentators would not voice their comments about the success or failure
of each candidate in last week's debate until they got the poll results to tell them
what to think. That one factor tells you almost all there is to know about the American
intellect and their powers of reasoning.

Images by : Timothy Shire II
Prince George, British Columbia : Participants all across Canada were out on trails and streets in

September 30, 2004

|

September 27, 2004
