Tim's Tip
of the Day
|
| With the Canadian dollar moved back to 74¢ yesterday there will be some repercussions
and the decline of the US dollar will have direct effects. Gas prices should go down
in Canada and up in the US. Any products imported from the US like vegetables should
show a modest decline in retail prices. Electronic goods, almost all produced in
Asia will remain about the same. Provincial and Federal governments would be smart
to stuff as much cash as possible into US debts if the US dollar continues to sink. |
|
Kevin's find of the day
|
 Study: Sleeping position reveals personality. This Reuters
story discusses a study that sheds light on how sleeping and conscious personality
are similar. |

- Conservatives need to have faith in their leadership
- Saturday
September 20, 2003
by: Mark-Allan Whittle
Yesterday Brian Marlatt gave us a much different view of a possible conservative/alliance
merger but Mark-Allan Whittle tells us that Conservatives should trust Peter McKay
and Stephen Harper to bring the two like minded groups together.

- A Walk in the Park
- Friday
September 19, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Fall with colour, light rain and cool temperatures, ideal conditions to enjoy one
of the best places in Tisdale, the trail by St. Theresa Park. This story includes
a QuickTime VR panorama requiring QuickTime to view.

- COALITIONS
CONSIDERED....Again: A Tory's Point of View
- Friday
September 19, 2003
by: Brian D. Marlatt
What matters is how things are done and why, and for that reason, there is little
common ground between the Canadian Alliance and Progressive Conservatives.
Even if a deal is worked out the Canadian public, the voters, will not accept such
a contrivance without substance.

Sale- Thursday
September 18, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire

 China is growing
by waging peace, the Bush administration is regressing by waging war- Thursday
September 18, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
In this story Mr. deSantis gives you the broad strokes of something that seems ironic
and that is that China is doing well by maintaining peace with its neighbours. To
fully appreciate this concept be sure to look over the references he has provided
you.

 World Trade Organisation Beached in Cancun- Thursday
September 18, 2003
by: Mark Weisbrot
The WTO conference in Cancun was a complete failure and Mr. Weisbrot points out that
this was fully predictable. Clearly, the purpose of promoting trade has been surplaced
with capitalistic merchantile political issues.

September 17, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire

 Downtown sidewalks- Wednesday
September 17, 2003
by: Doug Hay
Yesterday in the story "Unforgiving" there were pictures and information
about the poor condition of the sidewalks downtown. Today the town's Economic Development
Director explains the lack of wheelchair access, what we need to do about hazzards
and plans for upgrading the downtown area. The pictures of repairs on the area photographed
yesterday were taken at 4:30 this afternoon.

 Bureaucrats and expense accounts:
The never-ending feast- Wednesday
September 17, 2003
by: Walter Robinson
It seems goofy spending is a part of government as yet another expense account scandal
is ermerging. A thirty-four year old former assistant to Heritage minister Sheil
Copps seems to have come close to the line of abusing the money we all send to Ottawa.
Walter Robinson has some suggestions about the problem.

 Unforgiving- Tuesday
September 16, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Rough, filled with holes, to dangerous for a wheel chair or walker and hard enough
to break kneecaps and wrists; Tisdale's downtown sidewalks.

by: Ron Thornton
