Tim's Tip of the Day

For me, the pressing issues of the day involve so many other things I sometimes wonder why am I out of step. That's when I discover that the ballhoo over same sex marriage is not a moral issue at all, but a political event demonstrating once again the bigotry of Alberta's party of choice, the lame brained Canadian Alliance. Now we know why the snaps on their shirts, buttons present a technical challenge.

Kevin's find of the day

The Artists: It's the Music, Stupid, Newsweek article by Lorraine Ali points out the slump in music sales is not because of Internet downloading but rather it is because the music industry has been pumping out a poor product loading up albums with just plain stuff to back up a single good song.

Ensign Notes

The process of making this a better and easier web site to access and use is an ongoing one. If you have some problems or some suggestions send them along.


Understanding Bush's bloody dollar and American foreign policies
Sunday
September, 21, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: You must read this story carefully because both in Geoffrey Heard's explanation and in the references for this story is the basic conditions that are allowing the United States to muddle along deeply in debt and still considered the world's strongest economy.

Peter MacKay's speech on the Alliance same-sex motion
Sunday
September, 21, 2003
by: Peter MacKay
Ottawa: This issue has been emotionalised and taken to such extremes and it might be useful for us to read a moderate approach to the issue that has both reason and a desire to see a peaceful resolution come about. Peter MacKay is leader of the Progressive Conservative party and it is interesting to note that he has for some years had a close relationship with a Halifax woman in public but they have chosen not to marry.

Curiousity Corner Mural
Sunday
September 21, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The addition of a mural to a blank wall on main street is a major addition to the communities appearance.

TAG open for business
Saturday
September 20, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Heavy highway hauling truck parts is the specialty at this new parts shop located just East of Bow Mar Sales Ltd.

Conservatives need to have faith in their leadership
Saturday
September 20, 2003
by: Mark-Allan Whittle
Hamilton: 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
Tisdale: 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
Vancouver: 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.

St. Paul's Fall Sale
Thursday
September 18, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Several of Tisdale's churches hold various fund raising events. Today and tomorrow the United Church is holding their huge sale.

China is growing by waging peace, the Bush administration is regressing by waging war
Thursday
September 18, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: 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
Washington: 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.

Cross country in the rain
Wednesday
September 17, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Area schools launch their cross country running season with today's meet here in Tisdale.

Downtown sidewalks
Wednesday
September 17, 2003
by: Doug Hay
Tisdale: 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
Ottawa: 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
Tisdale: Rough, filled with holes, to dangerous for a wheel chair or walker and hard enough to break kneecaps and wrists; Tisdale's downtown sidewalks.

Canada's Only National Alternative and Other Tory Stories
Tuesday
September 16, 2003
by: Ron Thornton
Edmonton: With parliament back in session the rumors and discussions about uniting the fractured conservative portion of the Canadian political scene are once again tumbling around.

Riverside Golf Course
Monday
September 15, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Here is a chance to look around this beautiful Tisdale golf course. These pictures were taken Sunday afternoon. This page has a QuickTime VR panorama 380K.

The Greenwater report
Monday
September 15, 2003
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park: The geese are getting together and it has rained, all reason enough for Gerald to off across the province checking things out. All this and more in this week's report.
