The piece links the beard trend to local commemorations, notes Morden and Selkirk anniversaries, and mentions Ike versus Kennedy era politics. Police praise for Winnipeg bank robbery capture follows, with reflection on post election discourse in the Old-Timers’ Coffee Club.

He observes urban shifts and farmer spending, ending with a wry postscript about predicting outcomes after the fact.
