Six In The Morning: Saskatchewan, Mexico, Kansas And Russia

1 MEXICO IS GOING TO HELL That War On Drugs stuff isn’t going well, apparently. No one could have foreseen this.

2 THEY’RE BAAACK Provincial legislators return for the spring sitting. If you have friends or family working in Sask. politics, say goodbye to ‘em for the next couple of months or so.

3 BC TEACHERS ARE ON STRIKE Wages and classroom size are the issues.

4 HERE’S YOUR SLIPPERY SLOPE SLIDES British unionists, activists and other apparent undesirables have turned up on secret no-hire lists compiled by police or spy agencies and businesses. The police and/or MI5 connection is the huge scandal here, obviously. Environmentalists and unionists are not national security threats, though they can be threats to corporate profits. This is where anti-union laws like the ones Brad Wall’s government brought in can eventually lead. This is also the reason so many people distrust Vic Toews’ domestic spying legislation, which he markets as an anti-kiddie porn bill but is really a tool to use against activists and demonstrators.

5 NO CHOICE IN RED STATES Radical Kansas fucknuts are doing all they can to make sure no one will replace the abortion doctor one of ‘em murdered. The Americans who whine about liberty the most are always the ones who want to take it away from others. Maybe the Kansassholes should drop the charade and just start burning alleged witches and sacrificing virgins to ensure a good harvest. You know they wanna.

6 HEY, RUSSIA PICKED VLADIMIR PUTIN IN A RIGGED ELECTION THIS WEEKEND Read all about it. People are maaad. Glad Canada doesn’t have rigged elections.

OH PUPPY, YOU THINK YOU CAN PLAY THE PIANO How cute.

About Stephen Whitworth

Stephen Whitworth is a life-long fan of newspapers and alternative media who got his start in the student press a hundred years ago. He moved to Regina in the fall of 1998 and Prairie Dog recklessly hired him nine months later. It was a terrible mistake and the publication deeply regrets its inability to get rid of him. When Whitworth’s not adding typos to the hard work of Prairie Dog’s many terrific writers, writing hilarious (to him) headlines and finding inventive new ways to make the paper late for its bi-weekly press deadline, he enjoys reading magazines, newspapers and alternative comics, listening to music, playing board games, and drinking and eating. He has a cat and seven six pet snakes (R.I.P, Fred).
