“Conspiracy Theory” Report on US Concentration camps Censored.
Jesse Ventura, Governor of Minnesota (is he still the governor?) Has a Teevee show called “Conspiracy Theory”. I’ve heard lots of good stuff about it. But the love of my life heard this first (before I did anyway) : A program on FEMA camps actually being concentration camps and being built all around the USA- Was censored.
But it pops up on YouTube. Try this before it disappears from there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHb83VNijBM
That one is part one of three. The title says it is, but there’s a confused label that says part 2 of 3. If it starts with Jesse giving his bio (Navy Seal, etc.) it’s part one.
Links to parts 2 and 3 should follow. (Alex Jones makes an appearance.)

Gas Prices Have Risen Again, so what else is new?
But we knew that was coming, right?
Most stations are at 111.9¢ per liter. The car wash on Madawaska Blvd was actualy the cheapest gas in town for one day.
One possibly odd thing is that the Mr Gas is now an ESSO Station and the Petro Canada Station (Mac’s) is now Shell. (I heard that Shell and Macs stores formed a sweetheart alliance.)
The crime is: Oil companies have created false shortages and there really is no good reason why gasoline should cost any more than 25¢ per liter. -ack? maybe we should just let the idiots shoot themselves in the feet?

Elections coming.
So far, I think we have 3 announced candidates for Mayor and at least 3 for Reeve. I think I read that there are nine candidates for the five Town Counselor positions.
I don’t think I should endorse anybody. I should try to be fair. If I say anything about anybody, I should make sure there is equal time for all the others, and all that.

Gas Prices Again
Monday, August 30, 2010. (29˚C @ Noon)
Gas prices have been going down since the big jump when the HST (“harmonized sales tax”) went into effect.
Currently most Gas Stations in Arnprior weigh in at 97.9 ¢ per liter, even the stations that used to be a couple pennies more than most of the others.
The car was station hasn’t posted their prices lately (maybe they wheel them in at night?)

Gas Prices Down another penny
Canadian Tire, Petro Canada and Esso are now charging 99.9 ¢ per liter.
Ultramar on Madawaska Blvd is closed for renovations to their tanks etc.
MacEwen (Full Service w/ethanal) is still at $101.9 per liter.
(Haven’t seen three other stations lately)

The Prince and the Prior Photos
(I need the spelling for the Chief’s name.) Chief ______, second from the left, Gave a speach at the procedings, then told me this was more than just a re-enactment.
In 1860, Algonquins accompanied Albert Edward, the Prince of Wales. In 2010, these Algonquins came to the ceremonies commemorating the 150th annniversary of this visit.
I’ll have more later, but I want to get this up quickly.

Prince and the Prior Preparations
Because it rained earlier, a lot of people who might have otherwise shown up in their gowns for the dress rehearsal came in ‘civilian clothes’. The person above is ‘animating’ the part of the wife of ‘council person number one’.
Here, more of the ‘Animators’ are given direction and told where they will be during the actual re-enactment.
(More to come)
