Kevin's find of the day

Oak Lawn Schools cancel holiday traditions

Some Chicago school districts have up to 30% Muslim population and are having to drop or change the names of things like Halloween and Christmas.

Ensign Notes

.Happenings In Tisdale:

An open letter to the Governor General of Canada
Wednesday
October 3, 2007
by: Robert Ede
Richmond Hill, Ontario: Last week the Prime Minister and the Finance Minister announced a sizeable surplus in the budget, some $14 billion. By carefully reading over the actual financial report and the tables that go with it Mr. Ede has discovered that the truth is far more restrained than reported. You need to look this story over carefully and check out the Financial report for yourself.
Sign of frustration
Wednesday
October 3, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: From time to time there are some funny signs posted in Tisdale, this one is in place of what normally would be a poster for next week's movie.
There's more to the Gagetown story
Tuesday
October 2, 2007
by: Kenneth H. Young
Nanaimo, B.C.: Last week Rebecca Gingrich voiced her disappointment with the government of Canada and its treatment of veterans who were affected with US spraying of agent orange. In this story we find out that this was just a part of a much larger and even more ridiculous situation as Ken Young points out it went on for 28 years and there needs to be consideration given for those affected other than in two specific years 66 and 67.
House seventeen
Tuesday
October 2, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The seventeenth new house this year is well underway as the foundation was poured this afternoon on NewMarket.
Ugly province, eh!
Tuesday
October 2, 2007
by: Ken Styan
Tisdale: Here are some images Ken Styan captured within an hour's drive of Tisdale over the past couple of days. Thanks Ken for sharing these with us.
Tisdale harvest in final stage
Monday
October 1, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Less than 15% remains to be done as the combines were cleaning up fields this afternoon.
The Greenwater report
Monday
October 1, 2007
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater lake Provincial Park: The Crawfords are back from Alberta and have time to fill us in on harvest between here and there. Its hunting season at Greenwater and though many of the leaves have blown away Gerald caught two nice pictures for us.
Tisdale Dehydration plant being dismantled
Friday
September 28, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Some portions of the old dehydration plant will be utiliised in the new ENSASK Biofuels ethanol plant but much of the old equipment is being taken down and shipped.
On again
Thursday
September 27, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Just as in the two previous fall harvest seasons we have had weather that prolongs the process in the extreme. Today with clearing skies and low humidity the combines are back in the fields and the on again off again harvest is on again.
St. Matthew's fall sale
Thursday
September 27, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: This sale is on for both Friday and Saturday morning and there will be lots of great bargains still available, besides you can have some coffee and a cookie. Except for the top picture there is a second picture for each picture, just move over each picture with your mouse to see the hidden image.
Small farm harvest
Wednesday
September 26, 2007
by: Matthew Shire
Gravelbourg: With the harvest at Tisdale stalled with more rain today we take you back to September 19th and a very small farm eight miles north of Gravelbourg. This is a photo essay that tells the story of getting the crop off as the day draws to a close.
"Equalization Promise Kept!!"
Tuesday
September 25, 2007
by: Henry Neufeld
Waldeck: The basic fundamental concept of the Canadian constitution was that natural resources revenues were to go to the provinces. No ifs, ands or buts. But the Conservative government claims it did the right thing by Saskatchewan and it just ain't true.
Camp Gagetown guinea pigs
Tuesday
September 25, 2007
by: Rebecca Gingrich
Princeton, Ontario: The government settlement or pay out to people exposed only in 1966 and 1967 is extremely low and people there are very unhappy. Not just because of the slight to them but because their government knowingly involved itself in chemical tested for giant US corporations.
The Greenwater report
Monday
September 24, 2007
by: Gereald Crawford
Carstairs/Didsbury, Alberta: This week the Greenwater report goes to the dogs as Gerald and Doreen visit family in Alberta and there are puppies. Gerald also gets us a nice shot of an owl and a blue heron.
The Age of Turbulence Caused by the Money Changers
Monday
September 24, 2007
by: Mario deSantis
Prince Albert: Everything has a cause and the economic threats of this year were deliberately created and those responsible knew what they were doing when they set this whole mess in motion.
Trojans lose season opener to Notre Dame Hounds 5 - 6
Sunday
September 23, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Though the game began pretty one sided with Notre Dame dominating play the Trojans put together some brilliant plays to lose by one foreshadowing a good season because they showed thewir fans they have some nice scoring capabilities. Move your mouse over each picture in this story as they are roll over images.
Alberta royalty review
Sunday
September 23, 2007
by: William Dascavich
Edmonton Alberta: As the government of Alberta considers raising the extremely low royalties paid by oil and gas companies the industry is errupting with cries of agony and howls of reprisals.
take this as a warning
Friday
September 21, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The parity of the US and Canadian dollars may give us a feeling of satisfaction but when the big guy gets in trouble everyone suffers.
House sixteen
Friday
September 21, 2007
by: Ken Styan
Tisdale: Monday work began on this new basement on a vacant corner lot.
Hairspray
Thursday
September 20, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Showing this weekend in Tisdale is a musical, with a man playing one of the leading parts, all seems pretty implausible but it is pure entertainment and everyone who sees it will laugh out loud and enjoy a fabulous motion picture.
House fifteen
Thursday
September 20, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The fifteenth house of 2007 is on Forester Crescent filling in one of the few remaining lots on the block. The water and sewer lines were installed Tuesday and the basement was dug yesterday.
Dripping colour
Thursday
September 20, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Though today's sky was overcast and the odd drop of rain seemed to settle out of the clouds the trees responded in typical fall fashion. Damp and colourful, as soon as the sun comes out and the wind rises many will leave the trees behind them.

The huge poplar beside our yard will be bare by the end of the day as the wind is pulling off its leaves by the bag full.
