Three concerns gas industry are: 1.half truths spread by opponents of the oil and . 2. Give people an opportunity to stand up and demand respect for the industry . 3. People of Canada have one of the best standards of living in across the world because we are able to consume oil and gas affordably and produce it responsibly.

Mark Scholz said it is trouble some how much oil Canada imports from countries with environmental, human rights, and labour standards , that we as Canadians don’t agree with. The amount of dirty oil from different countries such as Nigeria. We could take this demand and fill it with the Canadian pipelines. The casualties with the pipelines are so much less.

Tashima Spa & Gifts Curative Laser therapy Super 8 Kindersley Canpulse Foods Kindersley Royal Canadian Legion Kindersley Chamber & Rotary Club Donate to the Food Bank The Kindersley Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club teamed up and donated $ 500.00 each to buy a upright freezer. With Guy’s Furniture helping to give a great deal, to purchase this much needed appliance. Our region right now is going through a very difficult time, with the economics being so low. As a result the need for the Food Bank is in a much more needed demand. The Chamber wanted to do this, because we had a interest in helping out, in some way. The use of the stand up freezer will come in handy with fresh bread being donated by the Kindersley Co-op, and to keep all of the meat , and other supplies as fresh as possible. So, now the Food Bank will be able to keep more on hand when it is needed. In the month of March, around 50 food hampers were handed out in the Kindersley and Eatonia and Eston Areas. The Kindersley chamber of Commerce would like to offer a challenge to all of the chamber members to meet or beat the donation. The Kindersley Inn will supply driver and the truck to pick up the supplies.
