Not my favourite hymn, though I admit is different when the bagpipes weigh in - Canmore Highland Games and it resounds among the mountains. Myself, I want to be wafted out of church to a pippie playing "79th Farewell to Gibralter".

Thank you for tonight's musical entertainment. I greatly enjoyed this, especially now.

Rex Murphy: Sing along with Fidel, sensitive souls, and you won’t hear the Cubans’ screams

I watched the 6:00 PM news tonight on Radio-Canada French TV out of Regina, Sk. I am bilingual. I was hoping that the French portion of the CBC would have shown a tad more savvy than their English-Liberal counterparts!! Non!! A few highlights.

They showed footage of Standing Rock, ND. They did show countless cars and trucks which CBC and CTV rarely show. . How did they get there without a pipeline feeding them?? And a cold wind now blows over the flat prairie, (12F) so the tents will have to be heated.. Heating a tent does requires petroleum based fuels?? Non??

A psychologue claims that the high numbers of native suicides in young people are the results of colonization, not mental illness. Wow?? Dr. Darian Thira works with native bands across Canada. Like hello Doc, all of Saskatchewan was colonized, not just the native portions of the province!!

Syrians arriving in Canada are having problems finding jobs because they have no ''Canadian'' experience, claims the story. No! That can't be? What? Nobody is buying snowshoes and traps anymore?

Windmills in Saskatchewan are supposed to produce 50% of our power by 2030. Slight problem. Wind only blows 50% of the time. Where will the other 50% come from??

Pipeline security was discussed. We won't go there.

Panhandling seems to be a problem in Regina. At -22C?? I doubt it. And it is the Yuletide season!

Only one positive report. Possibilities of a new ''non-COOP'' oil refinery in SE Sask. Now that is a warm breath of wind on this cool Dec. day.

Conclusion; Don't watch the news on TV!!.

Fed. Conservative Chris Alexander says he was mortified at the crowd chanting ''lock her up--lock her up.'' Referring to Rachel Knotley and a political rally at the Alberta Legislature.

Gee Chris, we promise, we'll be better Conservatives from now on!!

So Trump had a meeting with climate change hot air balloon Fat Al Gore...bet that was an interesting conversation. Hope Trump had no questions for Fat Al, he never answers questions.

Don't forget to participate in this poll, you can do this poll more than once. Sounds like our electoral system.

Why isn't our opposition demanding Monsef resign her position as Minister of Democratic reform? What on earth is such a ministry about if not about a not so hidden agenda? The media has let up on it as usual.

I thought they were chanting "Lock 'er up" in an insane asylum. That would certainly be more appropriate.
In any case, the left has no hate to spare so naturally goes ape-poop whenever someone else infringes on their territory.

Vancouver Canucks Forward Derek Dorsett injured his neck on Nov.17 of this year.He is now scheduled for surgery....in Los Angeles, California.....U.S.A.!

WHY? Canada has the bestest health care system in the entire Universe, but a hockey player needs neck surgery and a Vancouver based team sends a good Canadian boy,from Kindersley,Sask., no less, for surgery in a foreign Country!

If, allah forbid,Michael Moore was dead,he'd be a'spinnin' in his grave right now!

Let's just hope he doesn't die from complications.

Our local Fire Department was PROUD of the fact that residential FIRE SPRINKLERS saved a home from total destruction. Not a particularly interesting occurrence ... until ... I read the very last sentence of the article ...

http://patch.com/california/lamorinda/lafayette-home-saved-fire-sprinklers

The fire was started by a CAR catching fire. There are many, many, Teslas and all manner of electric autos in my local uber-liberal enclave. I wonder why the article didn't mention the make of the automobile that caught fire. I am BETTING it was an electric car. I will keep you posted.

"Major oil producers from around the globe managed to strike a deal to help the market find a balance between demand and a glut of supplies that has weighed on prices for more than two years.

So far, the oil market has cheered the agreement, but the true winner may be the U.S. shale-oil industry."

If there's such a concern about voter fraud now that the election's over, why do people like her take umbrage when the issue of mandatory voter ID is brought up?

Just heard Gordon Downie telling the AFN that today is "the greatest day of his life" because reconciliation and like that.

Good for him. Mine was the day my son was born. Downie has four children. Pardon me for finding him insufferable and pointlessly weird.
