Awww.. even CBC likes Winnipedia. It looks a new show aimed at educators includes this link to the Canadian Forces’ Operation Charging Bison.
Makes sense, I suppose, considering that every other website with the mere mention of the miltary exercise has an angry bias of sorts.

A two-time killer, Sheldon McKay, was found dead in his jail cell last week at the Stony Mountain Penitentiary. The McKay family says the RCMP told them he died from a stabbing, while an official press release of the autopsy of McKay says he was died of asphyxia.
Either way, it’s likely he died as a result of somone else’s actions.
Last year, in March 2005, when 40-year-old David Tavares was serving a three-year sentence for impaired driving in connection with a car crash in 2000 near Thunder Bay – where Tavares lived – he was fatally beaten in a public recreation area.
While some will point to ironic justice in this recent case, I ask where are we safe, if even in prison, people murder without clue?
Interesting story.

Lance Dutson, a blogger at the Maine Web Report (was) being sued by an ad agency for criticizing an ad developed for the Maine Office of Tourism.
