Paul Beingessner

While I don't expect to get dragged through the court system anytime soon, I did get an inkling last week of how Percy Schmeiser must have felt when he got that first letter from Monsanto. Mine came in the form of a letter from Viterra, that amalgam of the once-farmer-owned prairie grain companies. It began politely enough, thanking me for my business, but soon turned ugly. Viterra, it seems, is about to become the Monsanto of durum.

Greenwater Report

We left Sandy ’s place west of Didsbury on Friday morning. It snowed there all day Thursday, and I had to shovel about six inches of snow off the car. By the time we got to Didsbury there was no snow in sight, and the roads were dry. The brunt of the storm seems to have hit south and west of there; one place apparently got about 50 centimeters of the white stuff. Good for stretching out the ski season.

Qu'Appelle Calling

He doesn't miss too many notes, but thing is, they aren't usually the RIGHT ones. To say the blend of voices is eclectic may be the politest thing that one can come up with. Usually at 5:30 am there is at least one human shouting out the window to SHUSH UP.
