Brian Zinchuk: Justin Trudeau won’t say “carbon dioxide” if he can help it
I noticed something while covering the COP26 the United Nations Climate Change Conference UK 2021 in Glasgow, and our prime minister’s participation in it. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and his office, don’t say “carbon dioxide,” anymore, if at all possible. Instead,...

First, get yourself to Saskatoon, then progress on Highway 41 about 150 kilometres to the northeast to Melfort. From here, its about another hour and a half east to Hudson Bay, and along the route you will see the main geographic feature of the northeast – the Pasquia Hills.
