Investors Group
Thursday
October 18, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: This office opened in early September in the Tisdale Mall providing investment and financial services.
Welcome to Tisdale
Thursday
October 18, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: In many ways I have been told Tisdale's leaking and frequently dug up water mains are better than many other communities but it seems to be a never ending strugggle to keep water inside the pipes. This hole is not under a road so we can be thankful for that.
Producer car shipping
Tuesday
October 16, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Do-it-yourself elevator business is far less popular than one would expect with the savings that available from this method of selling grain.
The Greenwater report
Monday
October 15, 2007
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Lake Provincial Park: He is already complaining about light polution in the city so it looks to me like it is going to be difficult to make a city slicker out of Gerald Crawford
Cleanup week in Tisdale
Monday
October 15, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The town will be picking those bagged leaves this week as its time to put the leaves and twigs away for another season.
Mr. Ribs re-opens
Friday
October 12, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: There is a restaurant once more in the Tisdale Mall as Mr. Ribs opened for business today with a familiar menu and so excellent favourites. Mr. Ribs will open at 11:00 each day.
Hay River constable lost
Friday
October 12, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The flag that flies over Tisdale's RCMP detachment is at half mast as a sign of respect for the tragic death of Constable Christopher Worden of Hay River, the community at the end of the highway north of High Level Alberta and on the south shore of Great Slave Lake.
Provincial election 2007
Thursday
October 11, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Time to set out some of the basic issues facing Saskatchewan voters and in particular Tisdale voters. This story comes with the warned not to screw up an important event by not getting involved.
Parkland Photography Club meeting for September 2007
Wednesday
October 10, 2007
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Lake Provincial Park: We get a quick run down of the contests the club is involved in and get to see their pictures for this past month of "wildflowers."
Who will speak for electoral reform?
Wednesday
October 10, 2007
by: Alan Heisey
Toronto, Ontario: This story comes to us from prominent Toronto lawyer and political activist Alan Heisey on the day of the Ontario provincial election, the day the Saskatchewan election is expected to be called and the possiblity of a federal election shortly. Fairness in the size of electoral ridings is so important to our electoral process yet often completely ignored by the politicians, the press and the public.
The Greenwater report
Tuesday
October 9, 2007
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Lake Provincial Park: Well its official the Crawfords have sold their cabin and rented a place in Saskatoon but the weekly report will continue.
Forester Crescent powers up
Tuesday
October 9, 2007

Thursday
October 4, 2007

Crooked River: Some dramatic pictures from the small community east of Tisdale and some thoughts about the romance of rural life.
Not just a holiday
Wednesday
October 3, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Here are a set of pictures taken this afternoon and accompanying them is a simple Thanksgiving message.
An open letter to the Governor General of Canada
Wednesday
October 3, 2007
by: Robert Ede
Richmond Hill, Ontario: Last week the Prime Minister and the Finance Minister announced a sizeable surplus in the budget, some $14 billion. By carefully reading over the actual financial report and the tables that go with it Mr. Ede has discovered that the truth is far more restrained than reported. You need to look this story over carefully and check out the Financial report for yourself.
Sign of frustration
Wednesday
October 3, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: From time to time there are some funny signs posted in Tisdale, this one is in place of what normally would be a poster for next week's movie.
There's more to the Gagetown story
Tuesday
October 2, 2007
by: Kenneth H. Young
Nanaimo, B.C.: Last week Rebecca Gingrich voiced her disappointment with the government of Canada and its treatment of veterans who were affected with US spraying of agent orange. In this story we find out that this was just a part of a much larger and even more ridiculous situation as Ken Young points out it went on for 28 years and there needs to be consideration given for those affected other than in two specific years 66 and 67.

Tuesday
October 2, 2007
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The seventeenth new house this year is well underway as the foundation was poured this afternoon on NewMarket.
