By the Creek on Greenhorn Farm and a Political Quiet
The narrator spends about half an hour daily by Back Creek on Greenhorn Farm watching waters, livestock, pheasants, and the calm that running water brings. He reflects on John Diefenbaker's leadership, Liberal papers opposing him, and the Winnipeg Free Press as a potential ally in dethroning the Conservatives.
