Sun, September 24, 2006 - 3:12 PMCheck out CBC Radio. I really don`t know what the actuall link would be, but if you go to the website, hopefully they can point you in the right direction. I know that on CBC (late at night) there are all kinds of programs from around the world, and we can listen to almost any language for (I think) an hour in length. That being said, it`s been YEARS since I listened to the CBC, I watch it though.
You can get news and TV clips and all from the website. In fact, if you like political humour, I recomend that you check out the "Rick Mercer Report", or "This Hour has 22 Minutes", or "Royal Canadian Air Farce". All are on the CBC, and my personal fave. is Rick, he travels around the country showing off the good things that go on here, all the while slamming every politician that has ever been or is or ever will be in power. Once you understand what he`s talking about, it`s a riot!
And, you can read it in English, or French. As you wish. (the website that is, the shows I mentioned are all in English)
Good luck! -

Re: Hello
Fri, October 20, 2006 - 3:50 PMHa ha ha! Manitoba!! Where in Manitoba??? And for God`s sake, WHY????????? It is a bit less flat than say, Saskatchewan, but still, you can watch your dog run away for days at a time! lol! In all seriousness though, Manitoba has some really cool points.
1. The skies, they are breathtaking! With all that open space on the prairies, you can literally watch a storm come in for hours at a time, and the sunsets and rises are incredible.
2. The smell of freshly mown hay in summer is heavenly. And the harvest moon (more skies) in autumn is incredible!
3. You can enjoy the northern lights (Aurora Borealis) from the central part of the province northward, and if your in Churchill, you can even see polar bears!
So, Manitoba`s not too bad. What on trucking are you reading? That`s one of my trades by the way, trucker. So, I have seen a fair bit of the country.
Cheers!
