Local year in review recalls a nursing home elevator and railroad gains plus fires and floods. Ronald Reagan era politics, Lennon's death, and 1981 leadership changes frame the year. Ryan White’s dream and a Miniota contributor are noted, with a church card service and choir event cited.
Reggies Ramblings cites the Winnipeg Jets without a win in 28 NHL games and veers into political quips about the NDP and Lyon government. The column then shifts to a round of community items from Hamiota to Brandon, including a New Year’s gathering, choir notes, a charity auction total of 2351 dollars, and a Christmas carol mishap at the church.
The piece notes that Westminster could repeal the BNA Act and pass a Canada Constitution Act, creating a legal gap during which Canada might not exist. It discusses provincial or local challenges, questions of royal assent, and whether British action could lawfully bind Canada, urged by a cautious view of constitutional procedure.
