Tony Carlson notes the season brings thankfulness and fresh starts for Canadians. Students and teachers return to classes while sports gear up across arenas from Agassiz to St John’s. New colors light forests as calendars mark Rosh Hashanah and Thanksgiving. The piece weighs social concerns amid holiday reflections.
A feature reviews local optimism amid unemployment and poverty, praising Canada’s opportunities, education, and growth. It recalls national pride, a supportive government, and notable figures, while offering Halloween safety tips and a call for pension and salary transparency for public office.
Children should review safety rules days before Halloween. Stick with a group, avoid entering unfamiliar cars or homes, use sidewalks, map a safe route, and inspect candy before eating. Dress with visibility, keep costumes knee length, and wear proper shoes. Carry a flashlight and use reflective tape. Masks should have clear eye openings and makeup is preferred to masks.
Reggie’s Ramblings notes Progressive Party leader Sid Green’s call for a by election debate was snubbed by Grit Tory and NDP candidates. The piece then remarks on Walter Pidgeon’s death and recalls his World War II era film roles.
