However in this day and age of 3D TV’s with huge screens, documentaries, National Geographic, TLC, Discovery, etc….. it’s almost criminal to keep animals, especially those from other climates caged…

http://www.calgaryherald.com/health/Wildrose+Leader+Danielle+Smith+calls+full+complete/7370652/story.html It can’t be stopped, this will be repeated again because food production on any scale as big as this – is all about money.

http://www.calgaryherald.com/business/Home+sales+soar+Cochrane+Airdrie+Okotoks+CREB/7369840/story.html Amazing isn’t it??? Everytime I step foot in some new town of Alberat, property values soar. Just like Ottawa. You could be forgiven for thinking it was some sort of conspiracy at work. Exploiting and excluding me from those markets where I could potentially be interested in setting up permanent residency. Well tough bananas,…

Calgary & Alberta – get with it
Okay, I’m in Kemptville, Ontario now. I understand from my niece comments who has been in Calgary for the last few years and a student of the University of Calgary that there is little or no work in Calgary and surrounding areas all winter. What gives in the land of the plenty & NRGY if…

Globe and Mail online – Don’t kid yourself: Apple’s map fiasco says something’s awry
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-investor/investor-community/trading-shots/dont-kid-yourself-apples-map-fiasco-says-somethings-awry/article4599262/ Here’s my executive MBS humble opinion on what Apple should have done. Not changed maps solely in their favor. Yes, Apple products are great and since that’s the case, consumers would have wholehearted jumped on their new maps bandwagon. It should have continued to offer Google Maps and introduced their new Apple version and…

Globe and Mail online – Problems remain at XL Foods meat-packing plant: union
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/problems-remain-at-xl-foods-meat-packing-plant-union/article4601131/ I fully expect that the issues put forward by union representatives are fully resolved before the plant re-opens for regular business. This is as much for respect to employees, consumers and animals that have given their lives for food. The waste of nearly tons of food is unconscionable. The question that has not been…

Calgary Herald online – Editorial: Put the brakes on this snow job
http://www.calgaryherald.com/travel/Editorial+brakes+this+snow/7361243/story.html In this case, I agree with the logic presented by the Editor. While I feel for bicyclists, in their pursuits of health and the environment, it would be stupidity and stubbornness to ride a bicycle on cleared paths only to face the onslaught of vehicles all over the place and be struck, injured or…
