May 27, 2004

 Canadian
National Railroad - Saskatchewan- Thursday
May 27, 2004
by : R. W. Shire
Regina : It has been in less than twenty years that Saskatchewan's railroad system
was destroyed. It is important to understand that railroads are under the juridiction
of the Federal department of transportation and their destruction and abandonment
was essentially a transfer of expense to the province as trucks run on highways which
are a provincial responsibility.

Kevin's find of the day
|
|
 This is
the
text of the speech former Vice President Gore slammed
out last night at the University of New York. Al didn't hold back. I will
also add that in 2001 I was we were in a realtors office and the guy was a Lebanese
immigrant, and rather proud of the fact that the Gore family were Lebanese immigrants
just like him!

 Change- Tuesday
May 25, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : This is a simple concept but one that needs to be thoroughly examined.
Just like people who want to purchase an electric drill really don't want a drill,
but want holes. So it is that once we get a handle on what the world is about we
are in a better position to make changes.

May 19, 2004
by : David Orchard
Borden : It appears
at times the we forget our historical successes and wander off into oblivious following
trendy ideological theories. Canada was built by public and private cooperation,
Canadian Pacific, Canadian National, Trans Canada Airlines each filled a need in
a very big country. The country is just as big now as it ever was and the need to
pull it together greater than ever.
