Is there any better team in the NHL than the Edmonton Oilers?
The Page wants to know who. The Cup returns to Canada later this spring!
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has resigned! Finally! The collective noise from Canadians sighing relief is louder than a balloon popping!
How the Liberal party and Eastern Canadian voters put up with him for so long is ridiculous. He was an embarrassment to the nation.
Added to the mix was the propping up by the NDP to keep Trudeau in power and you had a ready-made mix for disaster. It is no wonder the provincial NDP tries to distance itself from the federal NDP.
You think politics has everything to do with the betterment of the nation? Trudeau and Jagmeet Singh proved otherwise by keeping this inept and incompetent government in power for far too long.
This is far worse than trying to fit a square peg into a round hole! Worse than trying to convert an Oilers fan into a Flames fan. Worse than trying to tell Quebec to support pipelines!
But. . .
As the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for. The next Liberal leader just night be worse! Hard to imagine!
How would you like living in Northern Montana? Eastern Alaska? Upper New York?
It’s the talk of the town since President-elect Donald Trump suggested Canada become the 51st state.
Oh, brother! How ridiculous! No way Canada is giving up its sovereignty!
You want to be a Yankee Doodle Dandy? Move south! Plenty of buses and airplanes go that way! Go eat your apple pie and play baseball! We’ll stick to poutine and play hockey.
In Canada, we may argue amongst ourselves, elect inept governments, have differences between regions, but if joining America is an option forget it. Canada will band together and fight this tooth and nail. Never going to happen so let’s drop all the silliness and get on to more important things.
However, Trump has a ready-made capital city in waiting. Did you know there is an Ottawa in Kansas?
One has to wonder why Trump would propose such a ridiculous idea. It is simply banter in preparation for a trade war?
Canada is still well-respected on the world stage, no matter how much damage Trudeau the Younger tried to do. Is this Trump’s version of diarrhea of the mouth merely a diversion for something else he has up his sleeve? Stay tuned!
Well, “The Great Lie” is finally over!
The “recycling bins” were removed in High Prairie Jan. 7. The fact is, there was never any recycling going on.
This newspaper asked the Town of High Prairie several times for facts and figures regarding how much recycling was occurring. Never got an answer until finally we were told that the contents in the bins were sold and the company could do whatever it wanted with them. The company’s solution? Take it straight to the landfill! The company that owns the bins made a little profit by renting the bins which pleased its bean counters, and the people of High Prairie and area actually thought they were recycling when in fact it was not occurring.
In the meantime, no one ever told us the truth. Better off to keep the people in the dark!
The Great Lie! Until proven otherwise we cannot call it anything but The Great Lie! Council was given multiple opportunities to explain themselves. Nothing!
And we were even billed for it on our monthly utility bills! The arrogance!
Even the most avid recyclers on council never told us what was really going on. When asked how much recycling was occurring, the solution was to ignore the question and hope it went away. Common political strategy was pretty darn sad.
If a miracle occurs and numbers are produced, this newspaper would be more than happy to share them with you. And if some numbers are miraculously produced, why were they not shared long ago?
One has to wonder if this will instigate a second look at recycling. Some people are willing to pay for it.
