Reggie’s Ramblings Mixed Musings In A Manitoba Paper
A collage of quips and quotes from a Winnipeg daily era. The column references a 1971 census head of household bias, a university critique of present-day schools, fashion ads urging women to add “oo la la” to outfits, Confucius commentary on ministers, and a humorous postal note about letters to Queen Elizabeth. It closes with praise for Lester Pearson and a nod to royal honors.
