Ensign Notes

.Happenings In Tisdale:

How can Prime Minister defend what he doesn't believe in?
 
Saturday
March 31, 2007
by: Jason Daniel Baker
Toronto:
Film critic, writer and political activist Jason Daniel Baker brings to our attention the inherent dangers of the Prime Minister's Alberta separatist sentiments and how his writing might serious encourage the "autonomists" in Quebec.
Rambler trade show 2007
 
Friday
March 30, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale:
This year we take you to the trade show with a streaming QuickTime video. The video features highlights of interviews with participants in the trade show and is 22 minutes long.

Why go on and on about the Canadian Wheat Board?
 
Thursday
March 29, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale:
We have devoted a lot of time effort to discussing the issues related to the Canadian Wheat Board. Those who are not involved in agriculture might wonder, why bother? This is why!
Building a strong and united Canada? Not!
 
Thursday
March 29, 2007
by: Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls, Ontario :
There is no hidden agenda for the Harper government. The Prime Minister has been up front from 1995 on telling Canadians how he intends to dismantle the dominion of Canada and pretty much go with the policies he shares with Mario Dumont leader of Action Democratic du Quebec.
Saw-whet Owl (Aegolius acadicus)
 
Wednesday
March 28, 2007
by: Helen Carson

Late winter, early spring visitors to the Carson yard include this small owl and calm bush rabbit.
No planning but crass politicking!
 
Wednesday
March 28, 2007
by: Eugene Parks
Victoria B.C. :
With all the words of promise about the environment in the budget the real world is a good deal different as a committee set up to deal with air quality policies was disbanded four days before the budget was announced.
At first blush
 
Tuesday
March 27, 2007
by: Brian Marlatt
White Rock B.C. :
The results of the Quebec election will have far reaching consequences as people notice the strong reseemblence between Dumont's policies and those of Stephen Harper only a few years ago both simply have their roots in the old Union National policies of Maurice Duplessis.
Healey Farms Ltd. auction
 
Monday
March 26, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire

Ten square miles of farmland, houses, seed cleaning plant and grain storage all sell at huge afternoon auction at the Tisdale RECPlex.
The Greenwater Report
 
Monday
March 26, 2007
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park :

Sunday
March 25, 2007
by: Christine Whitaker
Edgeley:
Its time the government and Saskatchewan politicians became aware of how vital local schools are to the continued viability of rural Saskatchewan.
David Anderson and the truth
 
Saturday
March 24, 2007
by: Joyce Neufeld
Waldeck:
David Anderson is the Saskatchewan member of parliament who is the Parliamentary Secretary for the Canadian Wheat Board and he like the government is determined to do as the Americans want and destroy the efficient and effective marketing mechanism. The man seems to have a bit of a problem when it comes to keeping the facts and the truth straight.
Ste´phane Dion speaks out for Western Farmers
 
Friday
March 23, 2007
by: David Orchard
Borden:
There is considerable misinformation about the Canadian Wheat Board and its origins. In this story announcing an upcoming speech by the Liberal leader Mr. Orchard points out that the Wheat Board was originally established by a Conservative government.
Whatever became of Sandra Kaufmann?
 
Thursday
March 22, 2007

Thirty four years ago as principal of Ceylon school this writer was also the ball coach and in today's story he thinks back to the team and wonders what became of those great people. Sandra will be almost fifty years old now.
Where is the justice in all this?
 
Wednesday
March 21, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
The second trial for a Tisdale man charged with sexual assault is almost over and this writer is wondering just what purpose did all this serve and did it help our society, make us safer?
The waddlers are back
 
Tuesday
March 20, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :
The first five of our local Canada geese (Niska) population have made it back and are cheerfully awaiting the spring run off.
The Bloc has taken the bribe
 
Tuesday
March 20, 2007
by: Eugene Parks
Victoria B.C. :
The Federal budget brought down yesterday is truly a set of bribes aimed at various target populations within the country without an over all plan or common mission for the country. Taxes are being allotted this way and that to bring contented smiles and the Bloc has bought the bribe to sustain the government. This has all happened before.

Monday
March 19, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire

Back from Alberta now off to Saskatoon, definitely Crawfords are on the road again. Signs of spring and spring storms as the park gears up for the coming season while Crawfords Family Fashions expands to another outlet this one in Foam Lake.

Friday

Sunday
March 11, 2007
by: William Dascavich
Edmonton Alberta :
If we keep on living and working as we are at present the future is unlikely to be anything but devastatingly bleak. Mr. Descavich warns of what we as a society are going to have to give up and ponders if we will be willing to doing anything about the drastic measures that are a certainy.
