GENERATION GAP JULY 19TH.

Hi everyone, just a short note to bring everyone up-to-date with the Verdun Generation Gap 40th. Anniversary Reunion being held on July 19th. at the Verdun Legion. The response has been amazing and I have to sadly announce that the event is "SOLD OUT" My thanks to all who have contributed in some way. All proceeds will be going to charity and I will let everyone know what is happening in the near future.

The event will be filmed so ALL our friends spread over the globe will be able to see what went on even though they could not attend, again I will keep all posted when placed on U-Tube!!!!!

One other important note: There will be a Verdun get-together on July 18th. at the Hotel de la Montagne on Mountain St. at approximately 6:30 7:00 is on the rooftop terrace, ask or look for Glen Pilon, so come on down and enjoy the evening and see some old buddies.

Again "Thanks to all".

Verduners on the move

Hi

 

Just a question..from this group you can see alot of us have left and are scattered everywhere..I have always wondered is it unique to us because we are from Quebec and the poitics being what they are would dictate that or would leaving be for the greener grass as they say? I look around other places and see people who grew up together still within a short radius from home.Of course could be that there are alot of groups like ours out there. Just wondering.

 

Take care and like Les says HF&RV

Canadian Gasoline prices

Ask yourself if you will, why isn't Canada self sufficient in oil production and refining? Why is gas so expensive in Canada? Did you know the US imports more crude oil from Canada than from any other oil producing countries including the Saudi Arabia? If Canada has that much oil to ship most of it to the US then what is really going on? The answer is the oil companies sell to the highest bidder regardless of nationality. 

When the oil companies wanted to build the Alaskan Pipeline in the 60s the arguments were the same as today with Anwar. We need the oil to be self sufficient vs the environment of the North Slope . However as soon as the pipeline was eventually finished in Alaska, the oil companies couldn't wait to sell it to the Japanese!

Peace,

Bill

Thank-you

Goodmorning all,

                         Thanks for your kind words and well wishes.

My boys and I are hanging in there. This is really hard to wrap

your brain around though, after spending 20 yrs. with someone

and then they're gone instantly forever. Thankfully I do have great

friends. Deb Ireland came and spent 10days with me. She was a

huge comfort and help. Les, that's the same info I have on Lynn.

Her phone is disconnected. I have seen the Dash before and will

look at it again soon. Thank you all again.
