There is no such thing as limited war
 
Monday
September 11, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
What happened five years ago will be discussed for perhaps another hundred years and the response to what happened is changing the attitudes and the concepts all people have about conflict, big or small. Today we discuss this change and try to deal with what we are now accepting as appropriate behaviour.

Ensign Notes

.Happenings In Tisdale:

Afghanistan
 
Monday
September 11, 2006
by : Bev Currie
Swift Current :
Here is a very simple but also very convincing argument in favour of an immediate withdrawal of Canadian Forces from Afghanistan.
Water Treatment Plant making progress
 
Friday
September 8, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
Not the kind of spectacular project that was anticipated the buidling of the new water treatment plant has been a limited skilled tradesman affair that has just ambled along out there behind the trees.
Bravado, Bluff or Blarney? Reform-Party Policy Visits the Senate Committee
 
Friday
September 8, 2006
by : Robert Ede
Thornhill, Ontario :
Prime Minister Harper and his former Reform/Alliance government seem to have a very poor understanding of both the present constitution and how changes might correctly be made to the system. Mr. Ede attempts to set them straight on the finer points of Canadian constitutional law.
First Paint
 
Friday
September 8, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
The trees are once again turning colour, here are some pictures of the process and some thoughts on what it could mean to us.
Big Truck: Perkins
 
Thursday
September 7, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
images by : T. shire & Jo Lukinchuk
Tisdale :
To us this 94 wheelled giant is a remarkable sight but it is just everyday stuff for the Northfield Minnesota trucking company. This sort of thing is what Perkins does, in a rather big way.
Taste, touch, sight, sound. . .
 
Wednesday
September 6, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
Reality, even awareness, taxes the very limits of our senses, each step forward in science and in art reveal vast new concepts we had never ever considered before.
Busy little intersection: part 2
 
Tuesday
September 5, 2006
by : Shawn Ratushniak
video by: T. Shire

Tisdale :
And then some, Shawn works within constant sight of the junction of the two highways and jotted down notes on the traffic one day, this will surprise you. This story also includes another ten minutes of corner traffic condensed to thirty seconds.
Busy little intersection
 
Monday
September 4, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
While waiting to catch a moving picture of a big truck I shot a short ten minute video of the intersection of highways 3 and 35. That video is pretty revealing and is part of this story.
The Greenwater Report
 
Monday
September 4, 2006
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park :
More on the Crawford's recent trip to Alberta as we catch up on friends and family.
Little publicized knots in the softwood deal
 
Thursday
August 31, 2006
by : Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls, ON :
The Harper government wants to pass the deal it has made with its friends to the south, but hold on, its not all that simple a deal.
Its piling up again
 
Wednesday
August 30, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
A Louis Dreyfus an enormous pile of wheat has accummulated over the last few days.
Scenes south of town
 
Tuesday
August 29, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
Drifting down a dirt road only a mile east of highway 35 the Doghide Valley is a sumptous place if you are a cow. This is a simple photo essay of the area.
Immigration committee for Tisdale
 
Tuesday
August 29, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
No one likes committees but this one is an exception as the community now has a committee to coerdinate the integration and support for the new workers who have come to the community to work at Northern Steel.
Canada can't afford not to have the Wheat Board
 
Tuesday
August 29, 2006
by : Ron Watson, Glen Reimer and Harold Blodgett
Lancer, Success and Abbey :
Members of the National Farmer's Union, District 3 present a compelling argument with facts and dollar figures that establish the reason why the Canadian Wheat Board is so important to the country.
Time to pull the plug on summer
 
Monday
August 28, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
Summer is over sports fans and the swimming pool will be drained tomorrow. Dry until the Victoria Day long weekend of 2007.
A day for baby Jadyn
 
Monday
August 28, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
A chronic accident for an eight month old baby brought the folks of Tisdale and surrounding communities together to raise money to help out the family of the stricken child. This story includes a short two minute video of award winning performer Codie Prevost.

Figure skating and minor hockey parents were out Monday night to get their children into these winter sports activities.
1963 Ford Falcon
 
Friday
August 25, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
Though considered a compact (meaning small) car at the time Ford introduced the Falcon to compete with GM's Corvair and the Chrysler Valiant. Today the trustly little Falcon looks like most other cars on the road today.
I have it figured out
 
Thursday
August 24, 2006
by : Kevin McIntyre
Carrot River :
How about a Pepsi and some greasy fries, or better yet a nice bag of Doritos , or maybe some Kraft Dinner with extra melted cheese food slices? Time to wise up fat folks, what we eat may taste good but its killing us. Kevin has some powerful advice and he is deadly serious.

Wednesday
August 23, 2006
by : Timothy W. Shire
images by: Judy and Timothy Shire

Humboldt :
Our camping for this summer is over but our taste for Saskatchewan's Regional parks has only been stimulated as we want to see and experience more. Here is what we thought about the lake park a few miles from Humboldt.
